Tuesday’s Direct was the opposite of what Nintendo and the Switch 2 needed
The recent Nintendo Direct presentation for the Switch 2 has been criticized for failing to meet expectations, particularly for Western audiences. Despite featuring games like Rhythm Paradise Groove, Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave, and multiple Xenoblade titles, the lineup lacked major first-party franchises and new intellectual property, leading to disappointment and concerns about the console's appeal and pricing strategy.
