@LastFootnote I didn't even think to check if Öoo was released outside of Japan until your comment. That is odd that it wasn't mentioned. Homura Hime also looks prettty cool but no mention of it coming outside of Japan yet.
I'm way over 12 a year but I never buy anything full price. My Switch 2 was bought off marketplace a week after release. The NSO and Mario Kart codes were already used, but I bought those off of someone online for a deal as well. I picked up DK bonanza for 50 bucks used about two weeks after it came out. I think the only game I have paid full price for this year would be Street Fighter 6 on switch 2 and I've hardly played it. I always think I'm a bigger fan of fighting games than I really am.
But even outside what I buy used I'm over 12 new in the shrink wrap games a year, but those games are almost always on sale. For instance, I bought Ghost of Tsushima(Director's Cut) today and I've been dying to play that game for years but I was able to pick it up on sale for 21 bucks new so I jumped on it. I'm fine waiting because I know I'm going to be able to pick up games like that for cheap in the future. Nintendo published games though is a whole different story. Those require getting lucky like I did with the switch2 and DK. On the other hand I recently paid full price for Far Cry Blood Dragon because it got released in the Limited Run Vault and I know I'll almost never be able to get it for retail price otherwise.
I've been wanting to play 6 since it came out but I don't do the Playstation subscriptions since I mainly collect physical games. But this means no online play so this is a huge plus in my book for getting a Switch 2. I want to replay Cyberpunk 2077 too, so I'm assuming the cross platform saves will allow me to start a game up with New game + on my Switch 2. These are both just bonuses for getting a Switch 2.
I'm looking forward to this and hoping I can get some people to play online with me. I played a copy of the Japanese version of this on Wii when it came out and still had a blast with it(I don't know Japanese). I didn't even know there was a release outside of Japan until I saw it for sale at a used store recently for around $400.

@rotekps_aniger If events were cancelled for every mass shooting in America, nothing would ever happen.
