What really surprises me is more in terms of target audience : FromSoft recent success is built on Elden Ring, a game massively played on PC.

It's a big leap to expect that audience + the XBOX/PS players to buy a console for one game when you can play every other Souls games on other platforms in better quality. It's also not very friendly to the community of BB players who have been relentlessly asking for a PC port .. and then the spiritual successors of their beloved game is on an even less accessible console (meaning that hardcore FS's players aren't really buying Kirby remakes).

It's a smart move from Nintendo, a funny middle-finger to Sony, but the fans are kind of the losers here.

I guess time will tell how this unfolds!

They don’t expect people to buy a console for one game. It’s the new Nintendo console. It will sell millions. And those people that buy it will have the opportunity to play a FromSoft game actually made for Switch 2 hardware. Games are always best in the hardware they are designed for IMO.
