So, what can fans expect from this Nintendo Direct? Despite the looming release of the Switch 2, Nintendo still has a robust lineup of games in development for the original Switch. With an impressive sales figure of 150.86 million units, the Switch boasts a massive audience that game publishers, developers, and Nintendo itself cannot afford to overlook.
Among the anticipated titles, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond and Professor Layton and the New World of Steam are slated for release on the Switch in 2025. Additionally, Pokémon Legends: Z-A is set to launch on the Switch sometime this year. Fans have also been eagerly awaiting Hollow Knight: Silksong, which was announced six years ago with confirmed launch platforms including Windows, Mac, Linux, and Nintendo Switch. Given the Switch 2's backward compatibility, these games are expected to be playable on both the original Switch and its successor.
This week's Nintendo Direct could serve as a grand finale for the Switch, eight years after its debut, by unveiling Nintendo's final slate of exclusives before transitioning to the Switch 2. However, Nintendo might still have some surprises in store for fans, making this an event not to be missed.
