Weird direction for Luigis Mansion 4 but I'll take it

Haha, that'd be awesome, LM4 being all japanese horror. 😅I'd play that!

Being rated mature is the most interesting bit to me. I know they don't give a shit about third parties any more, but they have seemed to remain within their family friendly bubble for the most part

Edit: after a bit of research they have published M rates titles in Bayonetta and Ninja Gaiden. They also purchased a majority share in Monolith one year before Disaster: Day of Crisis released. However, Disaster was never released in North America, as well as Bayonetta and Ninja Gaiden being from Japan, and other companies originally. Eternal Darkness was also an M rated title published by Nintendo for the GameCube. As far as I can tell, this will be the first mature title actually developed by Nintendo, unless they announce another company is working on it. Seems as if Nintendo of America may be more strict, but that is just conjecture

Weird name for Switch 2, but I'll take it! 😆

It would be so funny if it turns out to be something non-horror 😀

Yeah, maybe the Mature rating is just to mislead, and it's actually a new Yoshi's Island or whatever. That would be very funny!

This is both incredibly out of character for Nintendo and also in character for it and I'll all for it.
