Rence Posted February 21 Posted February 21 1 hour ago, Erreur2 La Nature said: It also would be the stupidest marketing strategy not to hold a Nintendo Direct this february when they had Mario Vs DK coming, the Splatoon DLC and Princess Peach which is the biggest game of the first half of the year, then randomly hold a Nintendo Direct in April when you don't have anything but two old remasters and then announcing a whole new era the next months Obviously those two won’t be the only titles coming out after the Peach game they still have a holiday season to sell especially if the March 2025 report for the Switch 2 is true. The Switch will most likely have one final general direct to announce whatever they have for the rest of the year and the Partner Showcase this month proves that it won’t be coming out until after February

If they thought Mario VS DK, Splatoon, Peach, Paper Mario and LM2 weren't strong enough to hold a general Nintendo Direct, I personally don't see them making another Nintendo Direct just about Switch games. Once they announce the Switch 2 though they can definitely make more Nintendo Directs, with a small section dedicated to Switch games and a more important section to promote their new Switch 2 games! We'll have to wait and see anyway but there is no way that "leaker" has access to the informations he published.

All those games you mentioned were already announced in previous Directs it’s highly possible that they have nothing else to announce for the half of this year which is why we’re not getting a Feb direct. It’s looking like there’s not enough material for June and Sep directs as well so one final Direct for the Switch seems possible. I’m not saying the insider is 100% credible but I have trust in Bloomberg’s latest report
Kern Posted February 21 Posted February 21 WORLD OF GOO 2 I don’t care for any other game from this showcase
Eternium Posted February 21 Posted February 21 I liked the Epic Mickey game on Wii back in the day. Definitely getting that and South Park. I love Level-5, but I’m undecided about Fantasy Life. It just looks cheap.
xXavril Posted February 21 Posted February 21 I’m so glad this direct wasn’t a stream. saved so much time because I could skip through the entire screen. only one of those games looked half interesting 2

Rence Posted February 21 Posted February 21 It looks like I’m only getting SMT V: Vengeance I was excited for Fantasy Life but why does the first game look good on the 3DS but this new one look like shovelware on the Switch Endless Ocean would slay on the Switch 2 with better graphics and framerate. The trailer they just showed looked rough
Kern Posted February 21 Posted February 21 GOD it's really over for us, Nintendo enjoyers I wish I had less money so I'd spend more time with fewer games over the years
Graves Posted February 21 Posted February 21 Ninty hosted a Direct the same day as Elden Ring DLC trailer? I fear my side was already chosen.
Magickarp Posted February 21 Posted February 21 At least we aren't the PS5 I hope the Switch 2 actually feels like the Switch 2. Especially in terms of Software. "PS5 has entered the latter stage of its life cycle" & yet 90% of the games can be played on the PS4 3

Bad Decisions Posted February 21 Posted February 21 I finally got my Fantasy Life release date so there's that at least. And it's being released on my birthday as well
Reginald Posted February 21 Posted February 21 ATLUS finally threw SMT fans another bone I can't wait for SMT V Vengeance

xXavril Posted February 21 Posted February 21 Tbh I feel like half of these games would have benefited from being released on the switch 2. The software being over 7 years old is glaringly obvious looking at these trailers. The only one they looked decent are a ugly art style, and the ones that could have had potential are definitely limited by the system’s power
BambiStar Posted February 21 Posted February 21 Killer Instinct on NSO I'm so happy!!! Diddy Kong Racing and Banjo-Tooie next 1 hour ago, Rence said: I hope they rot and suddenly I'm depressed again 1
Attitude Posted February 21 Posted February 21 I'm glad Switch 2 got delayed. Gives me time to buy all the remaining OG Switch titles I need before they go out of print.
