That's the Nintendo way. Avoiding the photorealism war altogether by making things intentionally sparse and cartoony. Then you can sell cheap hardware, make things portable etc.

Cartoony isn’t the uncanny valley. Uncanny valley is attempted photorealism that misses the mark.

I think games like dishonoured also managed to side step the uncanny valley. Not cartoony, just their own thing (actually more like an oil painting).

also nintendo vision which is "mobile gaming" are

handheld devices like switch,steam deck etc is really the future while phone is also true for some extend but gaming on a phone vs gaming on a handheld is really world of a differences

give it few generations then traditional consoles would obsolete, I mean we are literally have a lot of people enjoy indie game in steam deck right now
