But otherwise it had some great ideas like the PSS, Dexnav, boss fights done right, Soaring, etc. If they were more experienced with the hardware + avoided yearly releases it might've been an amazing era. The Switch era might feel different, but I'm not expecting it to top the DS era in terms heart-driven effort.
