I've only heard of them being trash so far. I was hoping they'd still have some resemblance of fun. But if the small fraction of folks who've upgraded to a Switch 2 actually were to play more than those on Switch 1, then that would be a pretty clear sign that it just isn't fun on Switch 1.

But yeah, I'm not yet taking that for granted from this piece of news. I would assume, they wanted to drop the Switch 1 so quickly, because then they can start extending the game in ways that use more resources, which might be fine on their other supported platforms.
