Not sure how this is a surprise, they're just about to replace the Switch so of course there won't be that many major games left for it, they've almost certainly shifted most of their major studios over to the Switch 2 a good while ago by now

Though I mean, they still announced very long-awaited smaller games like a new Rhythm Heaven and Tomodachi Life so I'd say it was still a pretty good Direct (plus some pretty cool third party games)

And honestly? Even if they somehow only have Mario Kart in the Switch 2 Direct, it'll probably still have good release sales because Mario Kart is just that insanely popular lmao

There's absolutely zero chance the Switch 2 is going the way of the Wii U, there are a lot of reasons why that went down the way it did and the Switch/Switch 2 don't really have anything in common with it
