I'd like to see Balder's Gate 3, Final Fantasy XIII Trilogy, Final Fantasy XV and XVI, and Tales of Arise next generation! And you?

The entire Nintendo Switch catalogue. Backwards compatibility is what makes or breaks a gaming system, as evidenced by Sony dropping the ball via making PlayStation 4 new games only (and repeating that blunder for the most part with its successor), and Microsoft’s similar at-first error with Xbox One (which still has yet to be fully optimised even now).
As for Nintendo, their handheld systems have always included backwards compatibility for the then-most recent prior generation (not counting the original Game Boy, unless you include the Game & Watch Gallery series), with some models of Wii and Wii U also having this feature; since Nintendo Switch is a unification of the home and handheld hardware divisions, there’s no reason not to continue this trend with its successor.
Speaking of which, if the rumoured “Switch 2” does indeed include an optional second screen, it’s a no-brainer to have Nintendo DS/3DS and Wii U games available to play in some form; there may not be too many titles that relied so heavily on the Game Pad, but if this is the most optimal way to re-release Star Fox Zero on newer hardware, then I’m not complaining even a little bit.

Agreed backwards compatibility is a must moving forward, not just for 1 generation but 2, 5, or even 7 from now. This is good for preservation and allows companies to shut down old shops without loosing games. (yes you’ll have the occasional licensing issues, but those could return again later like Scott Pilgrim did)
I want to see one day a Nintendo Switch that houses every single game from Color TV game 15 to whatever their current game at that time will be.

@KokorOtaku Absolutely agree, ten-hunnerd percent.
