At the end of the game the hat abandons him and Mario regains agency and realizes the horrors he's committed under the hat's control, cue his cartoony "oh noooo!"

fwiw I still am worried. Nintendo is shaping up to have a good first year, but the worry for Switch (for me, anyways) has always been if they can keep up momentum. And it's not easy to believe they'll have as strong software sales when we know only so little of 2018's releases and it doesn't look to replicate all the strong releases this year.

At least Doom port has me hopeful that 3rd parties might actually consider giving Switch a shot now.

You just gotta remember at this point in 2016 we knew literally nothing of their 2017 releases except Zelda and some mostly wrong rumors. The Switch hadn't even been shown yet

That is very true, that's why I was never in the "Switch is doomed" camp. But it also means we can't be too complacent about them either. Nintendo currently only has so many big selling franchises to put out, with a bunch of them already released or unlikely to come out soon (MK/Pokemon/Animal Crossing, imo). If they can continue lining up switch with software releases ala 3DS until they get those big sellers + get to them sooner, I think they'll be fine, but I can't say I'm confident that 2018 will compare well to this year in terms of software sales.

I'm at least a tiny bit hopeful that, since Switch software sales have been really good so far, that a "mediocre" year for Switch would still be a good year for them.

They should give America crunchy or soft shelled tacos or something. Now that's a debate.

They added some of the Booster Packs from the PC version, a charge bar, some missing bug fixes, and also apparently adjusted the balance of Angel Rooms.

How would they top MK8, a lot of people really liked double dash... maybe like that?

They don't have to top it. But trying to get through the next 5 years with a previous gen MK, a previous gen Zelda a Mario that came out 6 months after launch is probably not going to work.

They are going to need another Zelda and another MK and a new Smash. It's great that they front-loaded the first year of release. They also needed to do this to get the thing in peoples living rooms. Now they need to keep it up or they will eventually peter out. Can't rest on their laurels.

And again, MK8 is not a current gen game. It's a rerelease of last gen. They need a NEW one.

They absolutely don't need another Mario Kart on Switch. No one had a Wii U, the game looks "next gen" still and I'm sure it'll continue to sell well for the entirety of the Switch's life. DLC seems like a smarter option and I'd rather have MK9 on whatever succeeds the Switch.

I feel the same with Smash 4 but we'll see what they do.

Nah they will just do like usual and have 18 months where they release 2 games and it will be fine and everyone will still love them. Get another console to fill in the gaps.

The man who mention the unnamed game off hand in the e3 direct with no graphic card or anything was mighty vague about how far the game was along and said it might take some time.

It's weird to me that in a year with Mario Odyssey and breath of the wild, people think that nothing can be done to top MK8. Do we need a new Mario kart? Probably not. But I'm pretty confident that whatever they come up with for Mario kart 9 will be bonkers

I could see another Zelda coming to Switch after the DLC drops but I think it'll be a coop game or Zelda Maker.

Yeah, this is what I want. I'd be pissed if we got two MKs on Switch before a new F-Zero.

Even though Nintendo have never released two different Mario Karts on the same system before (excluding VC), I still that would be more likely than a new F-Zero
