So, what can fans expect from this Nintendo Direct? Despite the anticipation surrounding the Switch 2, Nintendo continues to have a robust lineup of games for the original Switch, which has impressively sold over 150.86 million units. This massive audience remains a significant focus for Nintendo, game publishers, and developers alike.
Among the anticipated titles for the Switch in 2025, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond and Professor Layton and the New World of Steam are set to captivate fans. Additionally, Pokémon Legends: Z-A is slated for release later this year. The long-awaited Hollow Knight: Silksong, announced six years ago, is confirmed for Windows, Mac, Linux, and Nintendo Switch. With the Switch 2 being backwards compatible, these titles 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, which debuted eight years ago, by highlighting Nintendo's final slate of exclusive games 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.
