the fact new horizons sold that well yet stopped receiving support saddens me.

I think the only reason it sold that well was because it launched in March 2020, basically lockdown central

This always bugged me a little, but when I saw how much support the mobile Animal Crossing game got, it really made me sad. They poured money and development resources into that game, but left the full price, multi million seller behind after a year, and it still lacks many features of its predecessors. I love the game and still play it off and on, but damn. It could have really been the pinnacle of the series.

Nintendo backed away from a lot of maintenance lately. Mario Maker 2, all the Mario Parry releases, etc.

The only thing they ever update is Mario Kart 8

Especially when you compare it to New Leaf's 13 million units sold, and was supported for way longer than Horizons.
