VG: Nintendo and Investors
Miyamoto has admitted he's not involved in game design as much as he was. He's 72, and basically retired, but works on projects for fun.
Miyamoto says they want 30 Million+ style game every few years as a goal.
Furukawa says they are making as many Switch 2s as they can so there are no scalpers.
Takahashi says many games will take longer to make. He also points out Nintendo continues to experiment until they find something they like.

Dragon Quest 3 is getting a 2DHD remake, and 1 and 2 are getting released next year in the same format
Warhammer Boltgun has new DLC. I have to beat the game first before I get this.
Metroid Prime 4 looks great, but I don't know if I like it yet.
ND: Zelda
The big promotion is that this is the last batch of games for the Switch
The new Zelda is very different from previous games.
That's because it stars Zelda and is full of magic puzzles

Stray is being released to the Switch with a graphical downgrade. My wife doesn't care.

Another article about the collection
Article by IGN about it
There are still a lot of games that aren't on modern PC or the Switch that could do with a rerelease. I own most of them in physical, including the skateboarding game.
Fans are already talking about the next Castlevania Collection. Symphony of the Night would be awesome. Remastered 3D games would be great.
