Yeah, Nintendo is absolutely looking like they'll be winning above the other big competition for the next few years at least. Not sure that's saying much considering all they have to do to be above Sony and Microsoft is not shoot themselves in the foot a thousand times but hey, a win's a win.

For those not sure what I mean, there's a lot to be excited for with Nintendo rn. Ocarina of Time Remake, Metroid Ravenous, open world Kirby game, Pokemon Winds and Waves next year. That last one is the one I'm most unsure about but even as someone who hasn't played Pokemon since Sun and Moon, I have to admit it looks like it has promise. Whether it'll meet that promise is what I'm unsure about.

Not to mention the Duskbloods. Snagging a From Soft exclusive is a pretty big deal, especially when it's Nintendo of all companies.

Iirc, From Soft are the ones that went to Nintendo to make an exclusive and not the other way around, which is pretty interesting

Makes sense. From wants a larger consumer base. That means getting into all consoles

From the interviews, From pitched it to multiple publishers and Nintendo were the ones who wanted it

Yeah, Duskbloods is a weird game—an unusual mix of ideas—and among all the consoles, Nintendo is the place where creative game ideas have the best chance.
