After the last Switch Nintendo Direct and having to replace my Zelda Pro Controller because it was defective, I got hyped for the Switch 2 and hopefully it comes sooner than later. So, I thought it would be interesting to know what people think which launch games it will have.

My predictions are as follow:

-New 3D Mario
-Metroid Prime 4
-A new gimmick game (showing the new gimmick)
-Assassin's Creed Shadow
-A Remaster/Remake
-Smash Bros. Complete Edition
-Mario Kart 10 (first year)

What games do you think it will launch with?

Not necessarily, it's Nintendo after all, they release 60fps games.

[NahaNago]

-New 3D Mario
-Metroid Prime 4
-A new gimmick game (showing the new gimmick)
-Assassin's Creed Something
-Mario Kart 8 port with all dlc(first year)

Depending on when the switch 2 releases I'd say smash will be released during like the holidays.

I could see a breath of the wild and the sequel getting ported to the system but maybe in a year.

[RoadHazard]

They're gonna release MK10 before 9?

 

[Emedan]

I think a new 3D Mario is a given at this point seeing how we haven't had one since the release of the OG Switch. Prime 4 is also a given I would say. So at least 2 bangers.

 

[Xyphie]

Either Metaphor Refantazio or Persona 3 Reload.

 

[Exentryk]

All I need are:
- A Bravely Default or Octopath series game
- Xenoblade series game

 

[NuclearDiarrhea]

I can see Elden Ring being a launch title for the Switch 2.

 

[lestar]

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Definite Edition

 

[CuteFaceJay]

The new Doom.

 

[Hudo]

Metroid Prime 4 (cross gen, obviously)
New mainline 3D Mario game
Some experimental game, new IP
Pokemon Z-A (they never specified a platform, so I think it's gonna be a Switch 2 game or a cross-gen title)
Some Ubisoft exclusive made by the Mario+Rabbids team.

I think Mario Kart 9 or X or whatever they end up calling it will come within the first year.

Just imagine a new 3D Mario and Mario Kart with Switch 2 graphics, will look splendid i`m sure.

I am really interested in what they gonna do for the next 3D Mario. Afaik, nothing has leaked, so we don't really know anything. Which is exciting.

 

[Davevil]

Mario Universe
Super Smash Brother x Kart

Hopeful for:
-dbz: sparking zero
-ocarina of time/majoras mask remake
-port of elden ring

 

[Jesb]

It’s been a long time since I had a Nintendo system, not since Wii. But I have a feeling this might be one of the best console launches in history. There’s going to be likely Metroid there, probably a new Mario in some form, your probably going to have a top remake like RE4 or FF7, might have a lot of good 3rd party ports.

 

[clarky]

CoD: Black Ops 6

Maybe not but definitely warzone.

 

[Oberstein]

Ring Fit Adventure 2

The game sold like hotcakes (over 15 million), and went head to head with titles like Pokemon. There will clearly be a sequel.

 

[WhiteWaterM00se]

Depends on which month it launches in.

If say it launches in August it will launch with Madden.

Assuming popular yet unproven belief of a March 2025 launch:

Launch month:
-Mario or Mario kart
- Metroid prime 4

Capcom: Monster Hunter or RE:4R or Super SFVI or Dead rising remake
Ea: mass effect trilogy
Namco: Sandland or Ridge Racer collection
Square Enix: FFVIIR or DQ1&2HD2D
Microsoft: Launch window Sea of thieves, maybe COD?
HELLO KITTY BIG CITY
SILK SONG
Death Standing

 

[IDKFA]

Luigi's Mansion 4

 

[Little Mac]

Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!

 

[Shut0wen]

Definitely new 3d mario and mario kart

 

[Varteras]

On one hand, I look at the Switch launch and think, "Breath of the Wild totally carried that launch". On the other hand, I'd be hard pressed to name a better launch title anyways.

 

[Hohenheim]

Metroid Prime 4
New 3D Mario
Mario Kart 9
New Nintendo IP (smaller game)
COD: black ops 6
Elden Ring complete edition
EA FC 25
Latest Assasins Creed
Hi-Fi Rush
Sea of Thieves

+ a few more ports

Oh, and it will be called:

"Nintendo Hachi"

 

[Walter Matthau]

Something in the Yakuza series will be in the launch window

 

[Porcile]

Super Mario Bros. You'll need to subscribe to a new service to be able to play it

 

[Mister Wolf]

Xenoblade X Remaster.

 

[Stefan.North]

Metroid Prime 4
Zelda TotK DX
New 2D Kirby

[DGrayson]

They're gonna release MK10 before 9?

I think the mobile game is considered to be 9.

 

[AJUMP23]

Mario Platformer
something weird from Ubisoft
Maybe a new Mario Kart
Metroid 4
Minigame collection of some sort

 

[RoadHazard]

I think the mobile game is considered to be 9.

Eh, I don't really think so. It's a side game, and it's not called MK9. Would be weird if the mainline console entries jumped from 8 to 10.

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

Tears of the Kingdom remake
Metroid 4 crossgen release
1 2 Switch me baby one more time

[Deerock71]

-A new gimmick game (showing the new gimmick)

What if they're going for a 3DSwitch? With an 8" panel 60 fps per eye? Predicting the gimmick is the true mystery.
