I hope they release a trailer for it sometime.
Also, @NintendoByNature I feel like it wouldn't sell extremely well, but could reach 1 million, but I feel like something like that. Maybe, it will, maybe it won't, but they've got to release a trailer to help spread awareness of the game to possibly help sales.
I suspect that this is one of those games that Nintendo will expect to sell at least 1 million copies even with minimal marketing/effort, and that press coverage and critical reception will perhaps ironically be detrimental to its sales prospects. While the original was dwarfed by a lot of other (mostly superior) titles, it still managed to sell over 3.5 million copies and cement itself as one of the best-selling games on the platform.
I am cautiously optimistic that this will be a substantial improvement over its predecessor, and I'm looking forward to seeing what Nintendo has up their sleeves, but I've also only ever played 1-2 Switch with another person, maybe... once? I've mostly only ever played it to experiment on my own and check whether it was able to detect the colours of any new Joy-Con that were released after the fact.
The novel experimentation, particularly with HD rumble, was great and all, but it's since been completely overshadowed by more compelling couch multiplayer experiences. I wouldn't describe the game as bad in any meaningful way... just underwhelming, especially as it only ever supports 2 players at a time, but this looks to support far more tha the original (though the eShop page is annoyingly vague for a game that's obviously complete and releasing in a matter of weeks).
@EaglyPurahfan : They could shadow drop a port like Super Mario Galaxy 2, but certainly not a whole new game. Shadow-dropping doesn't result in 10 million sales come launch weekend.
Porygon did nothing wrong.

Official PAL version cover from play-asia.
It seems the horse guy size on the cover have same size as Japan and USA version.
Guess the PAL version will not get the Petit Poney size. 😆

My theory was correct.
Smartphone can be used for the controller to play Everybody 1-2-Switch.
Also, the way you play the game was quite different.
Unlike 1-2-Switch which the game ask you to look at your opponent's eyes (not directly facing to monitor), in Everybody 1-2-Switch you are facing to the monitor while playing so you can see the result.
Mini games confirmed so far:
Ninja
Alien & UFO
Bust the Balloon
Running on the field track
Musical chair

Yeah, if you see the last minute of the trailer, literally you can play up to more than 10 peoples at the same time.
I wonder until how many players the game can accept.
I saw more than 50 peoples from the trailer.
@Owl1
Imagine in the future when somebody decide to play Everybody 1-2-Switch with 100 peoples at the same time and the video of their gameplay become a viral on YouTube.
Also, imagine if there is a mini game when you must dance and followed by 100 peoples at the same time, it will looks like a Flash Mob.

The people asking who brought the original. People do tend to have a higher tolerance for lower quality titles when a platform is new. I didn't buy 1-2 Switch but there are definitely eShop titles I got early on that, while good, I probably wouldn't buy now
If you went into a game shop a few months after the Switch released, and even now, you'd see stacks of copies of 1-2 Switch. People brought it on day 1, sold it back and nobody ever picked it up again. I'm not sure how many people will care about its sequel.....
Okay, the mini games we saw from the trailer so far.
Bust the Balloon
Relay Race
Ninja showdown
Musical chair and Freeze
Jumping Rope
Calling for the Aliens
I really hope the total of mini games are more than 16 since I saw from eshop page mentioned the digital game size was about 3.3 GB, pretty meaty for casual party games so 16 Mini games by default and we have to unlock more mini games through the gameplay.

So true. I definitely experienced quite a bit of buyer's remorse in that regard.
Ultra Street Fighter II in particular was one of those games that I likely would not have bought at launch at full price (it's a glorified port of a game from 1991 for crying out loud) given how laughably bereft it was of content. Capcom were quite audacious for releasing such a barebones title and demanding such a ludicrous amount, but I can't blame them for exploiting us early adopters either. The fact that the game was never ported to rival consoles is a testament to it being nothing more tha a cynical cash grab. I liked the game and all, and I prefer it over the ROMs in the various collections that Capcom has released since, but it wasn't worth the AU$60 or so that I paid for it.
And in the 6+ years that I have owned 1-2 Switch, I think I am yet to play it with another human being (I have only ever booted it up to test out the various games and to see whether the 3D Joy-Con models would reflect the colours of controllers released after the fact).
I don't particularly regret buying it, but the opportunity hasn't really presented itself in social situations as there is usually something better and more appealing to play. Ironically, 1-2 Switch seems like a brilliant game for blind people to play (even against people with sight), but that is appealing to a very specific niche.
