Sakurai is either a hype man or is dropping a hint.

remaster of Kid Icarus Uprising?

That'd be amazing.

But since he's also very close to the Kirby franchise him hinting at Kirby Planet Robobot seems more likely than Kid Icarus.

I'd be interested in Sakurai's take on a StarFox game, tbh.

 

[Shaki12345]

FF9 Remaster?

If a remaster is a "big talked about game" we're truly doomed.

 

[Shaki12345]

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".

Dude, in 2 weeks you have a Switch 2 Direct. You're way too needy.

6 days.

I expect a good couple of years of Switch releases after the Switch 2 launches.

The 3DS still had games after the Switch launched.

Hot take: 3DS is still a better portable

 

[Gripsx]

I recently found my GameCube and bought a few games I never got the chance to play.

I am a man of timing, I honestly expect something GameCube related today from Nintendo.

Meteos 99.

KI:U is practically a StarFox game already.

Than Switch? Yes

Than Switch Lite? Nah

exactly.

 

[Scrawnton]

exactly.

I agree with you. His development philosophy of jam packing things with relatability and content variation would be great for StarFox. It's what a series like that needs.

Metroid Prime 2 + 3 Remaster it's all i need Nintendo

 

[IDKFA]

Metroid Prime 2 + 3 Remaster it's all i need Nintendo

You'll get that, plus a Zelda collection of WW and TP and a bit more.

I'm convinced Nintendo are making sure the Switch goes out with a bang.

 

[Hookshot]

Seems odd that Nintendo would remaster KI for the Switch and not have it get the eyes of a Switch 2 release. Also I don't see there being any Zelda as that wont be ready for Switch 2 so will need remakes to fill the gap.

 

[Emedan]

That would all be epic

There is so many switches out there it would be dumb just to cut all the revenue off. We will still see a lot of cross gen games for a long time.

 

[Spukc]

Since portal 1 and 2 sold like crazy on switch,
i am pretty sure they will release the orange box on switch!
my uncle works at steam and he told me that gaben is remaking half life alyx to be played outside vr on the switch exclusively.

 

[Kacho]

Almost time

 

[Kabelly]

Nintendo saving gaming as always. Perked up for today but don't have huge expectations. I'm obviously more excited for next week.

 

[WhiteWaterM00se]

Any last minute predictions?

 

[GoldenEye98]

Seems weird that they would have this just days before Switch 2 direct...

Switch 2 direct will probably be a hardware blow out, with maybe one or two launch titles demonstrated on it. While this direct will focus on Switch titles releasing in the immediate future.

 

[Hudo]

Any last minute predictions?

We won't see Koizumi. I think we'll see him at the Switch 2 direct next week.

 

[near]

FFT would be a nice parting gift for the Switch. MATSUNO WHERE ART THOU?

 

[Shaki12345]

Metroid Prime 2 + 3 Remaster it's all i need Nintendo

Sure but you won't get it today.

 

[Shaki12345]

If they show a surprise title, it will be surely something that S2 can also run but better. Next week they will make a point to show S1 games can run and look better on S2. Starting with Xenoblade Chronicles X which can run at 1440p/60.

Metroid Prime 4 will obviously be shown next week.

 

[WhiteWaterM00se]

I'm still going to say it. The last game shown will be Nintendos first HD2D game. It will be an original super Mario bros collection for the Mario anniversary

 

[Little Mac]

1. Something Metroid
2. Something Zelda
3. Something Square Enix
4. Something Silk Song

I expect a good couple of years of Switch releases after the Switch 2 launches.

couple years? I think it's sensible to expect cross-gen games from Nintendo throughout the whole SW2 lifespan.

 

[IDKFA]

There is so many switches out there it would be dumb just to cut all the revenue off. We will still see a lot of cross gen games for a long time.

Not sure about that. Nintendo didn't really flood the 3DS with cross gen games. Nor the Wii U for that matter.

 

[Shaki12345]

Hopefully news about Prime Echos and Prime 3 Remasters/Remakes that have been supposedly done for a long time, along with Switch versions of Wind Waker and Twilight Princess.

Outside of that, likely some Indies.

Never gonna happen

 

[Fake]

Gonna watch on my PS5. Bring Twilight Princess please.

 

[GoldenEye98]

couple years? I think it's sensible to expect cross-gen games from Nintendo throughout the whole SW2 lifespan.

How many years until Switch 2 even hits half of Switch 1's install base? There is going to be a lot of cross gen imo.

 

[Evil Calvin]

Probably noting but sequels or remasters/ remakes.

No thanks!

 

[IDKFA]

40 mins! LET'S GOOOOOOOO

 

[adamsapple]

Chances of third party multi-platform content at the show?

 

[Shubh_C63]

Is this a normie size or supposed to be a big one ?
I don't mean the length.

 

[near]

Chances of third party multi-platform content at the show?

That's probably a given if we're shown third party games. At least one or two.

 

[asdasdasdbb]

The big one is next week for Switch 2.

 

[thatJohann]

Are we expecting any shadow drops?

 

[QLQ]

How many years until Switch 2 even hits half of Switch 1's install base? There is going to be a lot of cross gen imo.

Even then, there will still be tens of millions with an OG Switch in hand. That's a lot of software sales. Nintendo will be happy if they can strike a balance between keeping software sales very high on the strength of the old installed base and reaching at least 60%-65% of SW1 unit sales at the end.

 

[Banjo64]

gather round children - you're about to see a GOAT-rect

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

Any last minute predictions?

Mario Galaxy 2 Switch version to give Switch owners one last Mario fix before whatever they've been cooking since Odyssey is shown for Switch 2

 

[Little Mac]

13 mins!

 

[Touch fuzZy. get BizZay]

echoes yes plz

i dont care about corruption

 

[jufonuk]

Than Switch? Yes

Than Switch Lite? Nah

New3DSXL supernes skin stuff of dreams.

Love the switch but the handheld factor of the 3DS after the first version is much better

 

[Musashipan]

Damn , I have to work
Enjoy amiibos

 

[StueyDuck]

Any last minute predictions?

Kojima busts through Nintendo HQ and announce DS Mario edition and you can dress up as both mario and luigi and piss

And there will be a dodgy shot of Sam in a luigi outfit pointing a gun at a man in a suit and games media will misconstrue it as a reference to real-world events

 

[Warspite]

Got to be time for a price drop, surely?
