I think this'll be remakes/remasters galore. Kirby Planet Robobot Remake/Remastered, Fire Emblem Genealogy of the Holy War Remake, Metroid Prime 1 and 2 have all been heavily rumored for a very long time. Not to mention Wind Waker and Twilight Princess.

Considering the presentation is quite short this time I think they have more than enough in terms of first party announcements.
Ohhhh man I would be hella down for this. Especially after the fucking train wreck that Fire Emblem Engage turned out to be. I got about five ish hours into it and fucking dropped it, I hate every character that opens their mouths in it to continue with it.
 
According to Mr Grubb, the big "talked about" game will come from a 3rd party.

Silk Song?
Older COD? For switch 1?
A new Tecmo bowl? (A Moose can dream)
Banjo remake?

What could it be?
Im ya boy Stuz Corden...

And its either HellDivers2 or the Gears of War collection.

When I'm right you all have to to call me an insider.

by law i mean.
 
If it's any of these, it'll be Silksong.

If Microsoft was going to release a classic CoD for the OG Switch, they would have last fall, I think. There's very likely to be a current gen Call of Duty (either last year's or this year's) in the Switch 2 Direct, so announcing one for the OG Switch a week before would only muddle the marketing.

Tecmo Bowl sounds like a personal fantasy, and if any sort of Banjo project exists, it's likely years away and for the Switch 2.
Don't kill my dream of a HD2D Tecmo Bowl with modern QoL improvements. Even if it is the smallest of chances. LOL

Some people are speculating it is FFIX or Chrono Trigger, others are saying it is something new, like a Mario Rabbids. (Which can't be ruled out). But SilkSong does seem likely to me.

It's a shame we won't be getting any Switch 2 news. Because I'm sure they'll show a few things that will have most of us saying: "Yeah, that looks okay, but I wish we had some clarification on whether this is going to run better on Switch 2 or not".
 
This is totally going to be some kind of flashing light show that wipes our memories so they can sell us Mario Kart 8 again

Good thing we'll know less than a week later?
 
Setting myself up for more disappointments, so keeping my fingers crossed for news about - FF: Tactics, Fire Emblem 4 and Front Mission 3. 🤞
 
F-Zero GX, Mario Galaxy 2, Super Mario 3D Land or we burn this place to the ground!
You're getting F-Zero: Maximum Velocity 99, Super Paper Mario: Count Bleck's Recountance, and Wario Land 3 and you're going to be happy or we're turning this god damn car around and going home.
 
That's a sure way to deflate hype...and excitement. They want people to look forward to getting the TRUE experience on Switch 2 as a must-have, Not just a decent upgrade.

The Switch 1 version will be for those who can't get a Switch 2 and still want their promise fulfilled. Think BOTW with Wii U and Switch. The Switch version was considered The true version that they wanted you to get.

Yeah but no, I know it's exactly the same situation as BOTW for Wii U, being teased since the early years of the console, finally being presented properly during the last year of the console's life, but it was always a Switch 1 game, so I can definitly seeing them focusing on it, and the Switch 2 direct focusing on Switch 2 exclusives.

They've already shown the game. We know it's coming to Switch 1. Showing the Switch version again just to then show an "upgraded" version 6 days later really deflates the impact of what should be a Premier Switch 2 launch window game. They should market MP4 as THE reason to get a Switch 2 and not just a nice upgrade of a Switch 1 game imo.

Metroid Prime 2 & 3.

Wind Waker & Twilight Princess

Super Mario Galaxy 2

That's pretty much what I want for my Switch collection right now.
I want those 4 games and Luigis Mansion 1, Punch Out!! Wii, & Splatoon 1 HD for Switch.

Also they could do a Super Mario 3D Land & Galaxy 2 3D All-Stars Collection 2.

Or if neither, I would also love 3DS releases like A Link Between Worlds, Super Mario 3D Land, Samus Returns, Ocarina of Time 3D, Majoras Mask 3D, Luigis Mansion 1 HD.

Lastly DK Jungle Beat digital would be sweet too!!

They didn't really show the game though, barely a quick introduction.

And it would be tough to sell MP4 as the reason to buy the Switch 2 if it's a Switch 1 game at its core.

But you're maybe right, we'll see today
 
For heavens sake it's not coming out in November. Otherwise there wouldn't be a direct on 4/2 it would be in June. First of all. Also it doesn't match up with the summer play preview tours. Let it go. It comes out in the next 90 days for sure.
PS5 was revealed in June and released in November.
Xbox series x was revealed in December and released in November, almost a year later.

My money is also on a late 2025 release window.
 
It's Just going to be Miyamoto laughing to him self while flipping the bird and muttering wait and see the cool stuff switch 2 can do. Ahahahaahhah

Possible rumours of Kid Icarus
They are rumors beginning to pop up that the next Smash Bros is a Deluxe version of Ultimate with more content, esports focused. Coming to both Switch 1 & 2!

Thets true.However:

Switch was revealed in October, had a full show 3 months later, then released 2 months after that (and during those two months Nintendo ran hands on experiences around the world).

So far Switch 2 is following that same pattern.
 
There's a 150 million Switch 1 out there, a huge majority of them wont upgrade to the Switch 2 in a foreseeable future, Nintendo needs to show there's games in the pipeline for them too.
