It's honestly just an iteration. It feels like moving from the original Game Boy to the Game Boy Color. Yeah, like... it can make things look better and all but overall it's more of the same. I don't think there's anything wrong with Nintendo ditching its reliance on new gimmicks but Switch 2 doesn't have much of an identity of its own. Mario Kart World looks nice and all, but does it look like a massive step forward from 8? Not rꩵeally. We're getting Metroid Prime 4? Okay. Does it seem good? Sure. Revolutionary? Not really. We're used to Nintendo wowing us with imagination and innovation. Instead we're getti𓃲ng more of the same but, idk, with ray tracing this time? Okay, I guess, but I don't need it yet, if I ever will. When the most appealing feature for many is being able to emulate 20 year old games, there's a failure of launch strategy.

No, it doesn't. Why on Earth would it? Poorly received, and rightly so. There's little demand and there are so many better games in the Squeni🎐x catalogue. Why pick that one? Dragon Quest♉ VIII is RIGHT THERE.

No, they really shouldn't. Put that energy intoꦚ making something new and great. The spinoffs are whatever. Outsourced to other studios. Atlus should resist pumping out sequels and instead innovate.

No it's not. Fans gotta let some stuff go. It genuinely makes me sorry to say it, but some of these games are 🐠just plain mediocre. I don't like that this is true, but it is. Spend that time and money making great new experiences. Move forward, not backward.
