There's no perfect middle ground really, Everybody’s Golf is still the more fun game imo (on PS5) Easy Come Easy Golf is very good too though. It's from Apple Arcade so very mobile menus and the hit windows are very slow too, probably from that mobile design Easy Come is the better Switch one

Everybody's Golf is 30fps on Switch but that's not really the problem. Most games in the series are 30fps However the power meter has long been a 60fps element...which it isn't anymore? That's all they needed to do to make competent Doesnt help it just runs bad too youtu.be/5sYf4frxUKU

In Super Mario Odyssey, kicking things is Mario's highest priority, overriding all other actions. If a kickable object, such as a football, is thrown at Mario while he is asleep, he will momentarily wake up just to kick it before instantly going back to sleep.

This is not the AI boom creating a new type of work, this is a classic example of managers using automation to deskill old ones.
