Stardew's crown isn't worn just because it's a great farming game, but because it's a labor of love made by one dedicated, passionate weirdo who has fostered an incredible community since before the game was even released. As far as I can tell, every farming game that's come since is just riding on its coattails without any of the spirit that makes it special. I've never seen any other game, regardless of genre, occupy the space that SDV does.
I was a huge fan of Harvest Moon SNES and N64 growing up and somehow caught wind of Stardew's development in the very beginning, so I was following CA from early beta stages. The game had a huge community before it was even released, and CA has always been engaged with them in the most positive way. I remember the first day I played, I played for 16 out of the next 24 hours. Definitely one of my all-time favorite games, and probably the one I've played the most.
Don't really care for the content on Netflix in particular, but I'd love to see more streaming apps in general. I get a lot of use out of Hulu - prop the Switch up on its little stand and I can watch TV while cooking. I've got a smart TV with a PS4 and that's all well and good but it doesn't help me watch TV in the kitchen, and there's no way I'm using my work iPad for that.
