I’m out of touch. Any rumors?
I’ve had Metroid Prime 4 preordered since 2018. Hoping for yet another announcement of cancellation and handing to another developer.
Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War Remake
Surfaced along with Metroid Dread, Wario and Links Awakening for 3DS. Wario got cancelled, Metroid and LA eventually released.
New Zelda game
Some kind of 2D Zelda project is in development, unsure if it shows up at this Direct but would make sense as a holiday title (like 2D Mario last year)
F-Zero GX - Remaster
Rumored to be in development at Next-Level Games, could also be for Switch 2
Donkey Kong
Started development as Donkey Kong Freedom at Vicarous Visions, Activision dropped it but rumor has it Nintendo has either continued the project or rebooted it.
In any case, they've put quite some effort into Donkey Kong for the theme park rides, Mario Movie and LEGO sets so a new DK game would make sense.
Metroid
Possible shadow drop of MP2/MP3 remasters, along with a reveal of the Switch version of Metroid Prime 4 but if one game is a prime candidate as Switch 2 launch title its this one
Xenosaga
The copyright and references showed up in Xenoblade Future Redeemed, would make sense considering the close ties Nintendo has with Bandai/Namco
Square Enix
They didn't have a big presence at Sony or Microsoft but they teased Dragon Quest 3-HD prior to Geoff Fest, plus there is the rumored FF9 remake.
Apart from this Nintendo will probably do whatever they have to do to pad out the line-up with a Mario & Sonic Olympics game, maybe a new Mario Party or Kirby or whatever.
