    I wonder if Nintendo will manage 2 main Zelda games for the gen considering how long it took for Tears of the Kingdom and how recent that was. Mostly want to see how the next Xenoblade looks

      They might not even release one for this system. They managed to get two games out of one (well built) world/playground, across three systems. Nintendo only makes a game if they feel like there’s something new (for the most part), and it’s very possible they’re burned out on zelda right now.

      I’m guessing they’ll have other main liners for this system. Donkey Kong and Mario and something else.

        Yeah, it might be like the Wii leading into the WiiU. Twilight Princess was originally going to be for the GameCube, but turned into a wii launch title and was followed by Skyward Sword late into the Wiis lifetime. That resulted in the WiiU never having its own Zelda, instead sharing BOTW with Switch during its release.

        So it’s possible with BOTW released with Switch and TOTK late into the switches lifetime that we’ll see the same thing happen on the switch 2 (and it won’t get an exclusive Zelda).

        I’m hoping they can revive Star Fox Adventure. Next Zelda, I think it needs something new to it. I got tired of it way faster than Breath of the Wild. Too much of the same
