    Honestly I think Nintendo are killing it in 2023. I loved TotK and Pikmin 4, and have high hopes for Mario Wonder and the SMRPG remake. Yeah the switch is aging out, but it’s no big secret that a Switch 2 is deep in development and probably coming next year.

      I hadn’t touched my switch in about 6 months before TOTK came out and haven’t touched it since I finished it. I notice I have been using my switch about as much as I used my Wii U. It’s more of a dedicated Mario Kart machine that I occasionally use for a AAA Nintendo game like Zelda or Mario, but it’s mostly just there for when I have friends over and we want to Mario Kart

        Sure. I absolutely use my Steam Deck more than my Switch. But still, my favorite releases this year have been Nintendo games (although I hear good things about Balder’s Gate 3).

        Your anecdotal experience doesn’t really seem to match up with sales numbers.

        Speaking personally, I go stretches not playing the Switch and then months where I play nothing else. There are a zillion great games for it, and if they don’t interest you that’s more about your interests than the Switch itself.
