I knew it as soon as the first dialogue advance sound played! I was so excited but I know I won’t play it on Switch. Maybe this shows games will be for both systems for a while…

What other system are you referring to? Switch 2? I'm sure it's already been confirmed that the vast majority of Switch 1 games will be compatible with Switch 2.
But yes, I was also instantly hyped as soon as that first dialogue sound effect played. Hopefully it'll be priced reasonably well
I do mean Switch 2. I guess what I meant to say was when it finally arrives, it won’t feel like a Switch game. But this Nintendo Direct was supposed to be for Nintendo Switch games, only. It reminds me of the DS to 3DS transition: games just kept coming out and I never clocked when I was buying what system’s games.
