Really surprised that Mario Maker 2 is June - felt like it for sure would be December if it landed in 2019. I really wonder if they pushed it up due to delays on some of the other titles.
IaS has been regarded as generally mediocre. And it is. SE hyped that team as developing something akin to a spiritual sequel to Chrono Trigger/Cross, and what we got was a rather bland, grey retelling of Final Fantasy X. It fared well enough financially since the game was cheap to make and the price was relatively high.

Personally, I'm surprised SMM2 is a 2019 release. A December release wouldn't have made sense since Pokemon gen 8 will almost certainly drop in November, and Animal Crossing seems like it will hit around the same time. I would have expected SMM2 to be a flagship title for 2020.
