Such a shame. This is such a great game, if nothing for the lack of boards. I don't think it needed Smash-level attention, but 6-8 launch boards felt more appropriate than 4.
I empathise with Nintendo here, if their plan was to release 4 this holiday season and surprise us with Trilogy this spring our summer in the same announcement that they drop 4's holiday release date. Fans would have gone nuts in excitement. Now 4 got severely delayed and Trilogy got leaked. What a cluster for them.
I'm curious to see what non-port first party releases we coming up next year in 2019. I know AC (hopefully), Yoshi, Luigi's Mansion and Pokemon... the SMB is a port.
I understand the need to be connected to the internet to verify subscription and such, but I wish this was waved or extended if you had a 12-month subscription.
I'd much rather go the way of free market. Let developers do as they wish, if it's not financially supported by consumers then a pivot, or regression, will occur. If it is financially supported by consumers, then everyone else may need to consider accounting for that in their business model. Different strokes for different folks, variety is the spice of life, etc, etc.

Re: Super Mario Party Finally Gets Its First Update, But It's Far From Exciting
Such a shame. This is such a great game, if nothing for the lack of boards. I don't think it needed Smash-level attention, but 6-8 launch boards felt more appropriate than 4.
