10Fire Emblem Might Get A Classic Remake

As far as Nintendo Switch 2 speculation go , Fire Emblemdoesn’t have as much to go on as a stack of other first - party title . There have been years of rumors surrounding a remake ofFire Emblem : Genealogy of the Holy War , however , the quaternary game in the series that received far-flung eclat for its strong level and the range of its campaign .

If the remake is actual , it might be something that Nintendo ’s just sitting on , so using it to agitate the Switch replacement would make gumption .

As indicated in aSwitch 2 leak from Midori , one alleged project statute title for a Switch 2 game is " Anna . " As the codename for the originalSwitch Sportswas " Elsa , " this could very well refer to a direct follow - up for the next platform .

Midori delete their Twitter report after having their identity exposed in June , but although the part behind the invoice was fake , a in general true passing water chronicle has n’t been discredited .

There ’s no news yet on what a possibleSwitch Sportssequel could entail , but there ’s no deficit of chance for the game to take . Adding more sports and further flesh out existing ones is the most obvious move , but not necessarily the most interesting . Shifting stress likeWii Sports Resortdid and embracing an extravaganza of singular activity could be a lot of playfulness and in the end give more multitude a reason to like about the enfranchisement .

Persona 3 Reload is more than a re - release of an old biz . It is an alone new & unique experience that leads by example for other remasters .

5Pokémon Gen 10 Is On Its Way

If any one affair is certain in the humanity of Nintendo , it ’s that thePokémonfranchise will keep trucking along , and newfangled games would fundamentally be a ringlet for the Switch 2 even without any leaks . As luck would have it though , there ’s also some actual certification in reports of claim being developed for the next console . A May 2024 news leak signal that threePokémontitles for the Switch 2are already in the oeuvre , although it did n’t confirm the nature of the projects .

The most obvious comprehension among the titles would be the tenth contemporaries entryway of the mainline dealership , following the 2022 release ofPokémon Scarlet and Violetfor the Switch . Another outflow from May points to a2026 launch forPokémonGen 10 , demote the three - year release bike that ’s been reproducible since Gen 5 .

4Animal Crossing May Return In 2026

The Switch titleAnimal Crossing : New Horizonsrepresented a major new height in sale for Nintendo ’s life simulation franchise , so a replacement for the Switch 2 seems like a no - brainer . harmonise to a tweet fromNWeedle , the next entry is presently gear up for a 2026 release , which would definitely slot it in as a Switch 2 title .

Animal Crossing : New Horizons is n’t the everlasting Animal Crossing plot , but something that builds on its strengths might be able-bodied to take the crown .

Animal Crossinghas undergone a number of significant organic evolution over its account , and if the leak is accurate , the new title of respect might be agitate things up in the biggest way yet .

AnotherSwitch 2 leak from Midorifalls under the codename " Spiral , " and Midori considers it likely that this project isSplatoon 4.WithSplatoon 3having loose in 2022,it seems likely that the next secret plan in the series will be exclusive to the Switch 2 .

The core concepts ofSplatoongameplay largely remain the same from title to deed , so anyone already intimate with the singular ink - based bend on an on-line squad taw experience more or less knows what to have a bun in the oven . AnotherSplatoongame should add a new campaign and review the list of stages , style , and weapons , although whether it will make consumption of new ironware in any freehanded way remains to be seen .

2A Twilight Princess Remaster Supposedly Exists

There ’s no doubt that theZeldaseries will make an appearance on the Nintendo Switch ’s heir , and the current front - runner for an early claim on the platform seems to be a remastered port wine ofThe Legend of Zelda : Twilight Princess . BothTwilight PrincessandThe Wind Wakerwere originally freshened up for the Wii U , but neither remaster has ever made its way to the Switch , much to the frustration of loyal fans .
