I would say with the reopening of the gaming and film industry over the next two months, there is going to be a mini art/media renaissance due to people returning to their creative jobs with a vengeance. Coupled with the fact the virus is still going to leave most people indoors, companies will want to jump on pushing out entertainment media in order to capitalize on a larger average of consumption. I think this year is going to be one of the biggest years in media revenue in history.
I would love some form of Rare Replay on the Switch someday! If it were to happen, I would guess pretty late in the console's cycle. Hoping to see the day where Rare makes it onto Nintendo consoles again.
I have no problem waiting for games or details on games if it means Nintendo is doing their best to keep their immediate staff, warehousing staff and affiliated employees safe and healthy. I don't care for BOTW2 if it means that people are putting their well being at risk. It's just a video game.
Sonic Mania and New Super Mario Bros. are fantastic! I am a sucker for these game studios putting a modern twist on these older franchises. Really wish that the Switch Genesis' pack included the & Knuckles options for the games, but I shall prevail with ye olde cartridge for that option until a Sega Ages release.
In Canada, most games are $80-$90 on the Switch. I have never bought a Switch game on launch for that price. I waited a year to find a used copy of Mario Odyssey for $50. Most digital games I'll buy on Steam instead, because the 'Switch tax' inflation is kind of crazy. I won't pay more than $50 for a big Switch title if I can help it, I would rather wait for big titles to show up in my local used game store.

Very excited to see this! I remember buying the original GBA version with my hard earned chore cash back in the day. This game deserves the love!
