Hopefully a new Animal Crossing game! I started ACNH last month and it was my first time with the franchise. I’m already taking a time off because I was too obsessed but the game was so polished and well done that I’m really excited for the next. Also considering they have been busy with something since November 2021, I don’t think it is unlikely they are already working in the new game.
And bring back touch screen inventory management. Beyond me why they didn’t take advantage of their own console’s features when they’d already done that in all past possible games.
It would surprise me if Nintendo got into VR setting a lot of VR headsets are recommended for kids under 13. There is a lot of safety and health risks. Nintendo won’t likely put their kid friendly brand name on the line for a VR gimmick.
Slow news day. Plus we know from the Switch launch they don’t feel compelled to have a lot of games ready. It was breath of the wild, your typical launch party game and … nothing memorable.
It was years after the Switch came out that I finally decided to get one, and honestly the one game that combined me to get it was Link’s Awakening. I love that game so much!
Over the years, I ended up spending the most time playing Animal Crossing. I beat Mario Odyssey and it was nice. I really could not get into Breath of the Wild at all, or the sequel.
No links to the other games in story, other than nopon appearing and one type of unique monster. No real main character (create your own), missions and exploration over story. Very minimal story. Huge mechs, soundtrack by Hiroyuki Sawano (attack on titan) complete with rap during battles.
It’s a very frustrating game, but it is gigantic, has some awesome worlds to explore and is worth playing
I was disappointed in it at launch as it was not what I expected from Xenoblade after getting that one at launch here in the UK in 2011 - that was incredible.
Apparently the main thing that’s been holding Monolith back from remastering X has been trouble updating the engine for Switch. More powerful hardware might enable it… let’s hope.
With their dev cycle and work culture I don’t think we’re getting a launch Xenoblade though, or even anything.
I agree with you about a 3D Mario: it’s absolutely not incompatible with the release of Wonder. Also, it would be a good candidate to showcase the graphics of the new console, without taking much risks.
Mario Kart/Splatoon/Smash bros. They need a multiplayer game.
For Mario Kart and Smash Bros, they have the same (fist world) problem: the switch versions have so much content that it’s difficult to hit harder.
And it’s not nice of me, but I feel like they wouldn’t mind milking the Splatoon players.
Animal crossing. The license gained so much new fans with AC:NH, it would be suprising if they don’t try to take advantage of this new popularity.
Regarding Zelda, I would expected them to release an upgraded version of totk, since they often seem to release at least one Zelda game for two generations; TP was on GameCube and Wii, BotW was on Wii-U and Switch.
Alternatively, a (super-expensive) 2-pack game with BotW+TotK including DLC?

Metroid Prime Hunters (online mode) and Jump Ultimate Stars… Let me dream.
I would be on top of a jump stars sequel/remake so fast
It’s gonna be like the wii U where they just release updated versions of those games to start, not the worst move TBH
Just being more powerful will allow it to run a lot of games at their full res and target framerate more consistently.

Give us the chance to finally have one island per player on the console, and it’s a day 1 purchase with my SO.

New Super Mario,
Pokemon Stone Gray and Muted Olive,
Zelda the Minishcap remake.
VR mount headset will be the gimmick.
Name will be “Reality Switch” for VR and high resolution combined.
It would surprise me if Nintendo got into VR setting a lot of VR headsets are recommended for kids under 13. There is a lot of safety and health risks. Nintendo won’t likely put their kid friendly brand name on the line for a VR gimmick.
Why would they do that when they could just call it Virtua Boy 2?
Could you use Virtual Boy on your TV without headset? Also barely anyone knows Virtual Boy.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Ultimate
We don’t even know if it’s coming, but now we’re speculating what titles it will launch titles? Oo
Slow news day. Plus we know from the Switch launch they don’t feel compelled to have a lot of games ready. It was breath of the wild, your typical launch party game and … nothing memorable.
Just give me WindWaker HD port since I don’t have a Wii U
that and twilight princess hd port (PLEASE)
Honestly, I’m more excited at just the thought of getting a higher-specced Switch, so that I can play my existing games like TotK in all it’s glory.
Tfw it’s back compatible but none of the games get a graphical or performance upgrade…
A top-down Zelda could be in the cards. Perhaps a Links Awakening style remake of the Oracle games or Minish Cap
Much smaller in scope than TotK and therefore much faster and cheaper to develop, especially if they just re-use the LA engine.

I’d love that, but imo ALttP is the one in most dire need of a proper remake
Yep, their Zelda release strategy is to release a remake during long development cycles for new titles. I see this as virtually guaranteed.
Xenoblade X remaster/definitive edition.
Main trilogy is complete and wrapped up. X is still stuck on the Wii U and the online needs bringing back in a big way
Edit: 2015 may make more sense. 10 years, like X1DE was ten years after the original. Then XB2 DE then 4.yep.
I’m currently playing the XC Definitive Edition and I’d love to play X! I heard many saying it’s a good game
It’s great, just very very different.

I’d be very surprised if that Metroid Prime game doesn’t feature in their launch plans.

According to Wikipedia, group 5 develops animal crossing (2020) and Splatoon (2022),
Group 8 does 3d Mario (2017) only and group 10 does 2d Mario (2023)
Group 9 does Mario kart (2017 + dlc) and arms

Maybe a remake of age of oracles/seasons a la link’s awakening? Also the rumored re-release of WWHD & skyward sword.
