I notice they tend to have one "killer app" and then the rest of it isn't much to write home about, at least since the N64 (SNES had a whopping 2: F-Zerp and Mario World). The exception being the Wii U, which had... Nintendo Land? NSMB-U? Nothing really.

N64: Mario 64 (and had almost literally nothing else until StarFox) GameCube: Luigi's Mansion Wii: Twilight Princess, or Wii Sports, since TP also released for GameCube Switch: BotW

It's been so long since Odyssey and we've just had Totk, I'd guess another 3D Mario is likely their S2 'killer app'. Could be Legends Z-A or Metroid Prime 4 too, both of which would be cross generation. However, I'm not exactly dying to get my hands on any of these either way, especially not Pokemon.

Yeah, I'm betting on at least a new 3D Mario too. Wouldn't be surprised if Z-A was cross generation. Maybe the new Mario Kart they showed off in the short trailer. I don't think Prime 4 will be out right at launch but I could see it in the first year.
