@IceClimbers that sad, but considering until now we dindt have a update of the game, a lot of people expected this game to release this year, with me supecting they could delay the game to be the best No More Heroes game, WOW 2021 is gonna be crowded year of Switch, something tell me that Square Enix is also gonna delay Bravely 2 to 2021.
@Slowdive this is cool, thanks for sharing it. Interesting to see that each year had Exactly 10 “major” releases?!
Tho I definitely wouldn’t consider all of them major *cough *cough mystery dungeon.
Looking at all this together, I feel like 2017 and 2019 were definitely the best years for Switch. Tho I’m not mad at 2020 now that we know what’s coming in the next few months.
Personally I am not an animal crossing or paper mario fan, but for someone who is a big fan of those franchises 2020 has been a great year!
There has been some good 3rd party stuff this year (with more to come hopefully), I was very happy with the Bioshock collection, the Mario 35th collection and Pikmin 3 are great releases for me too. Nintendo will never be able to please everyone, but as @sammycool123 said, this has not been a bad year.
Who would have thought a new Mario Kart gets released and people still are not happy ;p
Ha ha!! The only thing I think anyone can be justifiably unhappy about is the price £100 with only 1 cart is a bit expensive, especially as they haven't announced any standalone carts yet. Apart from that it looks amazing!
After this, Labo and RingFit, I wonder what they will come up with next.
Personally, I prefer the line-up of 2018 over 2020. I didn't buy any of the "major titles" of 2020, but I bought 4 of the major titles of 2018. Let's see how Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity turns out.
When you buy it, you get:-
The game to download
Kart x 1
Gates x 4
Arrow markers x 2
USB charging cable
So you can use all that to play single player, if Nintendo sold karts (without the game, gates, arrow markers etc) you could buy a second kart and play multiplayer on your TV. They could even introduce other characters if the game is popular.

That's interesting, I didn't buy any of the 2018 titles (although i'm looking at party and aces for a family multiplayer purchase), of the major titles, I bought:-
2017 - 4
2018 - 0
2019 - 3 (will pick up LM3 too at some point too)
2020 - 2 (pre-orders)

The game is a free download on the Eshop and not including a usb cable would outrage people and not really save much money.

Are the 2 pre-orders the Mario 3D collection and the new Hyrule Warriors game? I'm considering both, but I'm still unsure.

True but if it's cost them £10m - £20m to develop the game, that has to be covered within the £100 cost of the game, Nintendo will be projecting units sold to workout when that cost is covered etc. A stand alone kart just has to cover the costs of that kart.
@dionysos283 Mario 3D Collection + Pikmin! Really not sure about Hyrule Warriors, I haven't played the first one and I have too many other games I really want to play or finish to consider buying it.
@MarioBrickLayer that’s not how costing works and that has nothing to do with them already selling individual carts and you wanting them to sell individual carts. You are just complaining about the price of the carts then.
@jump I don't think i'm complaining (well maybe just a little!) but the point i'm trying to make is that the only way to play multiplayer with the pre-orders available is to buy the game twice. If the Direct costs of producing just the Kart are say £20, then they could have made a multiplayer version of the game available for say £125 or they could have a range of standalone karts (Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad, Bowser etc) available for say £39.99?
@MarioBrickLayer they have a range of carts, Mario and Luigi, already which are sold separately. The game is already multiplayer and the game is free for everyone on the Switch Eshop, you don’t buy the game twice you buy two carts for multiplayer or one cart to race against AI Kooplings.
Think of it needing as needing an extra controller to play multiplayer or complaining about the cost of Jump Rope Challenge as you have to buy a Switch for it.
@Slowdive 2017 along with 2019, have been the best year for Switch, is very difficult for Nintendo to all years of Switch since launch have a consitence in quality, we can't expect every year of Switch so far to be a 2017, if Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild 2, Super Mario Odyssey 2 and Bayonetta 3 release in 2021, 2021 is gonna be a amazing year for Switch.
