In the past maybe. Dread sold record numbers and the Prime remake was huge. If they can have all three series for launch that'd be right up their ally.

Dread sold 3 million copies. Mario Odyssey sold 25 million copies. BotW sold 31 million. MK8 sold 58 million copies (just the Switch version). Metroid is absolutely not a system seller, and they will not push it as such.

We'll see. It's Nintendo. They could say fuck it and use Kirby as the launch title lol
