Other consoles have more Cross Gen titles than Nintendo though, even if they are mostly third parties. I mean, you could play Persona 5 on PS3 even in 2017

Nintendo itself reserves most of their new games for next Gen consoles. I'm sure even if those games could perfectly playable on Switch they will purposefully not release it on Switch, so people will have more reasons to buy Switch 2

I don't see this as a problem itself, but it's their modo operandis. To say Cross Gen games are something "very Nintendo" is a stretch, they are the manufacturer that makes the cross gen period the hardest to adapt 

I think there is a misunderstanding. I never doubted that Switch don't have many cross-gen titles, but you were going on talking about the remasters ("they rather release the same game again years later and ask full price"). Which is a pretty new thing. Although as Signalstar pointed out, there also were the new play control games on Wii, I only remember that for Pikmin, but maybe there were more of that.

Anyways, I don't think cross-gen is very Nintendo, and manlytears was talking specifically about BOTW2. And yes Zelda was a cross-gen game with Twilight Princess and BOTW now. In recent time only the transition from Wii to WiiU came without a cross-gen Zelda.

Sorry, I will be less cryptic: 

Don't many any sense for me to be happy because a company haven't released something you find worth it. It's like Wii U owner saying in 2016: "I'm happy Nintendo is not releasing any Wii U game anymore so I can save it for Switch!"

I feel Zelda is more a case of games that took quite some time to develop so they decided to delay it until it became Cross gen. It's most a coincidence I think, it happened only two times, most of Zelda games aren't Cross gen 

BOTW 2... I doubt it will be Cross gen, it will be released next year, it can be released on Switch 2 some years away, but be a Cross gen title? Not feeling it, unless you believe Switch is coming early 2023 but I will be surprised to see Nintendo dropping Switch with so many support and new games promised to 2022, I only believe in Switch 2 once Nintendo first party schedule starts to become dry exactly because I don't see them as a company that encourages Cross gen development 

My bet still 2024 or even 2025

Personally I like this better than a Switch Pro. It's got next to nothing in terms of selling points for those who already own a Switch, which means I won't ever feel obligated to buying one. If we had a proper mid-gen upgrade, it'd likely result in games being poorly optimized for the base console and eventually running like shit. To be fair, they kinda already run like shit, but it'd be worse.

Not everyone has the money to go spending around in fancy new consoles all the time. I don't want my current Switch to be made obsolete by an enhanced version because I don't have $400 lying around and even if I had, I'd rather spend it elsewhere. Never liked the idea of mid-gen upgrades to begin with, really.

Just hope Nintendo's next-gen console is a proper, no gimmicks Switch 2, and that it is a significant improvement not only in specs, but also OS, online, features in general, and product quality. And with enhanced backwards compatibility of course.

Not really the same thing. More like "Im happy Nintendo doesnt release upgraded versions of already released Switch games so I can save the money for new games".

not the switch pro ppl believed and 50 more expensive than the base model I'm sure some are disappointed but I think I will get this and give my old switch to my gf who wants her own switch for animal crossing
