Yeah I would put this in comparison with the OG 3DS however the main changes seem like they may be in the joycon redesign instead of the screen. The game carts will all be basically identical and potentially still swappable between consoles depending on the game. And the added functionality will probably be unfelt by a lot of people who won't bother with it.
They are working on making the quirk of the system better and giving it an engine tuneup.
They still go long periods of time with practically no "innovation" as that's not their point but making a fun toy is.
