I don't know this guy particularly but this is a good summation of how many so-called video game analysts and 'personalities' got it wrong with the Switch.
File size is out of control, and since devs don't have incentive on the other platforms to actually compress the files, they aren't going to bother only for the Switch. (Which is a shame).
If at least devs would let players select what stuff they want to download - like, if I don't care about multiplayer, it would be great not being forced to download anything related to it.

@Spoony_Tech PlayStation fanboys refuse to accept the Switch's success. Sony is in rather big trouble, especially for being so stubborn to work with Microsoft and Nintendo. Microsoft and Nintendo seem to be getting along rather well. The arrogance of Sony really makes me want to sell my PS4 and SWITCH to Xbox. It's good to see that 2 game companies can agree with their differences and co-exist.

@Spoony_Tech Also, yes. I agree. 3D mario is clearly superior over 2D. The health system really allows for an expanded amount of mechanics. This can also make the boss fights more innovative and fun.

@The64Master - I think a lot of people are bitter because of the rapid succession of 2D Mario games that came out in the beginning of the Wii U's lifespan. Which somehow, after 5 years, people are still bitter over. Which I do find amusing, since we've had shorter waits for more "dead" franchises and games before.
But real talk; 2D Mario is inevitable, but it would be interesting to see if Nintendo would plan a traditional Mario or maintain a service for a Mario Marker DX/2 to extend the length of those experiences. Though both will likely exist by the end.
I do personally think Nintendo should consider recycling some assets of Odyssey to make a 3D World 2. It would shorten a development time and approach a more multiplayer Mario experience (and doubles down the the Joy-Con sharing as well without another port), which is only a win-win regardless how against it SOME people are.
The fact that these console wars among fanboys even still exist is stupid. Having a preference for a particular platform is fine, but wishing for the collapse of any of them is rediculous. A gaming industry where Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo, and PC all thrive is a good gaming industry.
As for 2D Mario, it really needs a break. It's becoming stale quickly, at least for me. 3D Mario definitely needs some time in the spotlight.
@KirbyTheVampire I agree. I always found myself getting rather bored when I pick up and play a NSMB game. It's just so-1985. I still love the original Mario 2D games, such as World, 2, 3 and the Original. You can also tell how much more care and love is put into the 3D games. The 3D games always, and I mean ALWAYS present new mechanics, worlds, enemies, bosses, characters, and more. The 2d Mario games: Goomba, Koopa, Bowser, Mario, Luigi, Peach.

@KirbyTheVampire - Not defending 2D Mario games here... But the wait gap between a 2D Mario is larger than that of the 3D one as of right now. But people act like we got one yesterday, but haven't seen a 3D Mario since Galaxy.
I'll only be purchasing multiplats or indies on Switch for the rest of the gen (although we'll see if my resolve breaks down in the face of Monster Hunter World), as I don't appreciate being tethered to a TV when I play a game.
