I notice they tend to have one "killer app" and then the rest of it isn't much to write home about, at least since the N64 (SNES had a whopping 2: F-Zerp and Mario World). The exception being the Wii U, which had... Nintendo Land? NSMB-U? Nothing really.
N64: Mario 64 (and had almost literally nothing else until StarFox) GameCube: Luigi's Mansion Wii: Twilight Princess, or Wii Sports, since TP also released for GameCube Switch: BotW
It's been so long since Odyssey and we've just had Totk, I'd guess another 3D Mario is likely their S2 'killer app'. Could be Legends Z-A or Metroid Prime 4 too, both of which would be cross generation. However, I'm not exactly dying to get my hands on any of these either way, especially not Pokemon.
