Speculated Games Coming to Nintendo Switch

While Nintendo is keeping the details under wraps, the gaming community is buzzing with speculation about what might be revealed. One of the most anticipated titles is Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, which has been in development since its initial reveal at E3 2017.

Rumors are also circulating about potential announcements for Pokémon Legends: Z-A, a remastered version of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD, and a new Mario Kart game hinted at during the Nintendo Switch 2 reveal. Additionally, with recent buzz around Hollow Knight: Silksong, fans are hopeful for a release date announcement.

It's important to note that while this Direct focuses on the current Switch, Nintendo has confirmed backward compatibility for the upcoming Switch 2, meaning any games announced will also be playable on the new console.

As the countdown to the presentation continues, the excitement builds. Will there be any surprise announcements? Only time will tell. But one thing is for sure: Nintendo always keeps us eagerly anticipating what's next.
