Speculated Games Coming to Nintendo Switch

What can we expect to see during the Nintendo Direct? While Nintendo is typically tight-lipped about specific announcements, the gaming community is buzzing with speculation. One of the most anticipated titles is Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, which has been eagerly awaited since its initial reveal at E3 2017.

Rumors are also circulating about other exciting titles such as Pokémon Legends: Z-A, a potential remaster of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD, and the new Mario Kart game hinted at during the Nintendo Switch 2 announcement. Additionally, with Hollow Knight: Silksong recently making waves again, could this be the moment fans finally receive a release date? The anticipation is high.

Although the Direct will center around the current Nintendo Switch lineup, it's important to note that Nintendo has confirmed backward compatibility for the upcoming Switch 2. This means that any games announced or showcased during the Direct will also be playable on the new console.

As we approach the presentation, the excitement is building. Will there be any surprise announcements to thrill the audience? Only time will tell. But one thing is for sure: Nintendo always manages to keep us eagerly awaiting what's next.
