JuanMena · 2026-09-09T05:45:06+0100

It'd going to be Indies, Final Fantasy, Fire Emblem, Farm Sims and mobile apps.

I mean it's 45 minutes. I'd expect at least one big reveal mixed in there, though I really struggle to speculate as to what it would be.

Pokemon RSE release date

- More Pokemon Winds and Waves
- Third-party Switch 2 heavy hitters; Not just ports, but new games made for the system.
- An "HD 2D" Chrono Trigger remake from Squeenix.
- Close it out with one final trailer... The screen is pure black, and you just hear SkullKid laugh, and text appears saying that the Majora's Mask remake is in development. Leave it vague af.

Original content.

Excited for the Duskbloods release date trailer, that's a given. Beyond that I just wanna be surprised. A new Wario World for instance, or Capcom bringing back Viewtiful Joe/debuting Okami 2 gameplay. A unexpected remake or two, like Eternal Darkness or Soul Calibur 2 (guest starring Link again). And of course everybody wants to see a Smash 6 reveal.

pedro702 · 2026-09-09T07:01:59+0100

for sure a new metroid will be coming we know about the trademark metroid ravenous or something so that is for sure.

i would like luigi mansion 4
remakes or remasters of eternal darkness and geist
new 3d mario
new smash bros

Literally ANYTHING that makes the Switch 2 something worth using - because so far, nuddin'.

All those "Switch 2 enhanced" ports? Yeah, don't care; the base Switch games are more than good enough, and not enough tends to be added to justify the new one. The only Switch 2 game I've got is Donkey Kong Bananza, and...one game isn't enough to make me want to use the console I got for Christmas 2025, y'know?
Hopefully Ocarina of Time is excellent; that should be a system-seller (or user, in my case). Maybe whatever the next new Kirby game is, might be a seller too?

BigOnYa · 2026-09-09T07:32:22+0100

The Simpson's Hit n Run: Remastered would be really cool, but I doubt it be announced at a Nintendo direct.

Lostbhoy · 2026-09-09T08:01:03+0100

New OoT on Switch 1

gogokfen · 2026-09-09T08:15:09+0100

We getting Wave Race 65 fo' sho'

ut2k4master · 2026-09-09T09:39:22+0100

hoping for new gamecube nso releases or a new nso system, new hamster arcade or console archives releases, maybe a tease for a new big 2027 nintendo game

Costello · 2026-09-09T09:55:19+0100

the only IP I really care about at nintendo is Zelda so at this point I don't expect anything.
when you don't expect anything you can't be disappointed... right?

Greninji88 · 2026-09-09T09:55:40+0100

This is live at midnight for me...

I'm hoping for a Pokemon Emerald port to the Switch, a new Animal Crossing, and some updates for Mario Kart 8 and some other games on the original Switch. Hopefully some new games on Nintendo Switch Online

I'm almost in the same situation as you. Bought the SW2 now rather than later because I was afraid of the price going up even more. Have 3 games. Pokopia, Bananza and Mario Tennis Fever. Have played some Pokopia and Mario Tennis but I still haven't touched Bananza. I'm just hoping for some new game that doesn't make the console collect even more dust.

I'll probably get the new Fire Emblem (enjoyed Three Houses, apart from the monastery part of the game, haven't played Engage yet), Haven't played a single zelda game ever so I may get this remake

Fallout to nintendo switch

MRJPGames · 2026-09-09T10:04:18+0100

I mean Ace Attorney 7 (or really just an Ace Attorney game, I'd rather have a TGAA-like new story than a continuation on 6) would be really nice.

Other than that, anything to make me excited to use my Switch 2 for anything other than playing Switch 1 games with better resolution and frame rate...

regnad · 2026-09-09T10:11:05+0100

I'm hoping for a GBA Advance 2
