    when will we be updated on these AAA games?

    No More Heroes 3
    Bravely Default II
    Zelda Breath of the Wild 2
    Metroid Prime 4
    Bayonetta 3
    New Pokemon Snap

    All those games will likely be 2021 at this point except New Pokemon Snap

    this list is full of

    games ive played and listed so
    games that are not best run on Switch
    games that came out on Switch years later

    All I’m saying is there are plenty of good games on the Switch. Every console goes through dry periods as well. Xbox One doesn’t even games worth buying at all.

    you're right however New Pokemon Snap isnt going to be 2022

    unless they change the format, the game style is SUPER linear, chances are its almost done and we'll see something soon and a release in 2021 because 2020 was Mystery Dungeon + Sw/Sh DLC and we'll get at least one new AAA Pokemon game every year

    so for the rest of 2020 we have:
    Crown Tundra DLC
    possibly Mario 3D remasters
    and a new Smash fighter

    New Pokemon Snap will be 2020 in my opinion, the rest will be 2021. BOTW2 could be 2022. Metroid Prime 4 is years off

    yeah but Xbox is still a powerful 3rd party machine with great online support and other modern features that Switch lacks

    sure, PC and PS4 are better but the Switch doesnt even come close to Xbox One as far as Fall and Holiday 2020 go

    I disagree. There’s literally 0 reason to buy an Xbox One. You can buy multiplayer on PS4 and exclusives on PC.

    As far as consoles go including features, games, everything Switch beats the Xbox One by a mile other than online and no Netflix.

    Ps4>Switch>Xbox One

    Wasn’t it announced as a 2020 game or am I mistaken?

    New Pokemon Snap is technically developed by a Partner. If it doesn’t show up in these partner showcases a Nintendo direct is definitely coming at some point.

    botw2 and mp4 were listed in their earnings call so they’ll both be out in 2021

    because they worked with a bigger team and they worked all of 2019 and 2020 and development was probably way faster because they just made a game before that that didn’t cut it, not as many decisions need to be made the second time around because you already know what didn’t work. They’ll continue to work on it in 2021 up until it drops maybe even in late 2021

    They stated that they restarted, not to mention the recent hirings plus Nintendo takes there time with games. If anything BOTW2 will be the launch title for the Switch update. BOTW took 5 years to develop lol

    eh it’s more complex than that. games are created using assets and engines, they can reuse a lot in the development of a new game. That’s actually how botw2 is working. They’ve stated that they’re reusing the same engine, and that’s a custom engine they worked on for years as they built botw1 in it, so all that programming and assets goes into speeding up the development of botw2

    You should think of mp4 as the same, it’s a sequel a game we’ll never play, being developed in the same engine most likely reusing a lot of programming and assets. It’s even possible it’ll incorporate story, music, etc from the original

    I know how development works, for Nintendo to come out and state they’re restarting was for a reason. Mainly because they wanted more space and time. You also have to consider covid and the impact it’s had on development, plus big teams don’t always equal faster results. We’ll see though, I’m still betting on 2022 for Metroid if not later

    Nah... in 2019 when it was delayed it wasn’t in their earnings call

    In mid 2020 and again in August they had it on earnings call for fiscal year which ends in 2021

    they wouldn’t do that if the game wasn’t launching sometime in 2021

    If they do launch a new console my best guess is March 2021 so that’s a likely date for a big drop. It’s possible mp4 drops late 2021 and snap drops in the summer, makes sense. I think all 3 will get new trailers in a direct soon

    best guesses:

    Mario collection: September
    Bravely default 2 : November
    Bayonetta 3: January 2021
    Zelda: March 2021 with switch pro
    Snap in July 2021
    Metroid in October 2021
