A random thought. But the reason i think ive felt dissapointed with the most recent two directs, and a few before that, is because i wanted to see more first party announcements from nintendo’s catalogue of ip’s. When i compare it to the wii u, i realize their directs had more first party games because they didnt have the support of third parties, but now that they do, it makes sense that some of their first party games and announcements might take a back seat to let the third party shines. As someone who only plays Nintendo games on my switch because i have other platforms, it can be a little disappointing to me personally, but i’ve realized that in this era of third party prosperity on the switch, i need to reset my expectations for Nintendo's show cases. The third party support affords nintendo more time to polish their own titles. Sony has been doing the same thing with many of their recent presentations. Focusing on third party while maybe spotlighting one or two upcoming first party games that will be releasing shortly. While this method is admittedly less exciting for me, i 100 percent understand why its done this way
