Switch 2 is rumoured for 2024, but what could be launch titles? Metroid prime 4 would be a candidate, but might not a be a system seller.
A new 3d Mario could be a possibility, given wonder is a 2.5d and another team might be working on something.
Zelda - we’ve just had totk released so that seems out.
Mario kart 9 could be a system seller.
Splatoon 3 was only recently released.
What else could be lined up for a launch window, assuming a 2024 release? Maybe 2024 is less plausible 🤔
In keeping with Nintendo naming conventions it with be the “switch u” or more likely “switcheroo” It will be a VR based system that seems like an add on peripheral for the switch, but is actually a new system that nobody buys due to confusion and lack of titles.
I have doubts about the VR thing. Since VR in general doesn’t seem to be healthy or safe for kids under 13. The lowest age recommendation for a VR headset is 12 and that’s just Sony. I highly doubt Nintendo is going to put their brand in the line for a gimmick as weak as VR is. Besides Nintendo gimmicks are about unique innovation. Not rehashing an already dying gimmick.
I’d be very surprised if that Metroid Prime game doesn’t feature in their launch plans.
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.
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.
Just give me WindWaker HD port since I don’t have a Wii U
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.
Give us the chance to finally have one island per player on the console, and it’s a day 1 purchase with my SO.
