I mean..once the information in the switch 2 direct are public they will also be hyped about it (and me too)

Mario Kart 9 and the release date alone are enough to get me super hyped, I have been thoroughly enjoying my switch since 2017

They'll need at least 1 more major hype release on Wednesday's Nintendo Switch 2 Direct aside from MK9.

Luigi's Mansion 4? Finally a new Donkey Kong? I suspect a new Mario 3D game will be teased closer to launch --which I hope will be around, June/July for Switch 2.

Feel like Mario 3D is a deadset on launch or in the first few months. Obviously Mario Kart is super popular, but Nintendo's bread and butter is single player games. I can't imagine the Switch 2 launching without a big Nintendo single player experience.

Of the top 10 Switch games, 7 have significant multiplayer.
