Xenoblade 1,2, and 3 are all connected. Xenoblade Chronicles X is, as far as we know, not connected. Whatever additional content we get with the Definitive Edition of XCX may change that.
Xenoblade is kind of like Phantasy Star or Dragon Quest. They're mostly self-contained, but there are references to past games and events. Mostly as background lore.
Makes sense:
GB > GBA
GBA> DS
DS> 3DS
Gamecube> Wii
Wii> Wii U
Switch was a fresh start, a hybrid.
Those rumors of a 'souped up' Breath of the Wild being demoed to developers were probably true and a hint Nintendo's invested in some enhanced backwards compatibility to optimize select Switch games like both those Zelda games and Super Mario Odyssey.
