What will Nintendo release in 2025?
M.K.Ultra:
Well so much for my Mario Kart 9 prediction :rolleyes:
At least I managed to snag that one in the Fantasy Critic game. Here are my purrdictions for 2025:
* New 3D Mario releases for Switch 2
* New game from Next Level Games releases for Switch 2
* Capcom announces a Monster Hunter game for Switch 2
* Nintendo announces Splatoon 4 for Switch 2
* Square Enix announces an HD2D remake of Chrono Trigger
* Yoshi’s Wooly World re-release
* Kirby Planet Robobot re-release
* Re-release of an older Zelda game
* Switch finally gets a line of reduced priced games (like “Nintendo Selects” but may have different name)
* Mysterious C button related to the audio functions of Switch 2
Keep the hype for Switch 2 going!
Mop it up:
Whoof, a year with a new system launch is always a real wild card! Y'know, even moreso than usual. A launch opens up a lot more possibilities that a middle year wouldn't have. I have no clue what to even guess, but might as well just toss stuff out and see what sticks!
-A new 3D Mario will be announced this year.
It may not release this year, that'll depend on when the Switch 2 itself will be launched. The team seems due for a new game and having a new 3D Mario during the first year of a system is always a good way to build hype. Perhaps they'll go even bigger this time with a 4D Mario...!
-Re-release of a previous Zelda game.
I saw someone else predict this and yeah, I'll go with it. They're not gonna have a new one ready, so if they want Zelda content for the first year, something like HD Wind Waker or Twilight Princess is the best bet. And who knows maybe we'll get Tingle's Rupee Land 99...
-A new Fire Emblem announced.
Iunno, feels like it's been a while. Plus the Smash port will need some more anime swordsman DLC.
-The next generation of Pokémon games will be announced.
And everyone will be ticked that they're for Switch 1 and not 2.
-Another new sort of Pokémon app announced.
Pokémon Bathroom Break, anyone?
-A new IP of some sort will be introduced.
Something in the same vein as first-year Switch releases like 1-2-Switch, Snipperclips, or ARMS.
-A new Kirby game will be announced.
Might be a bit of a wild card here, but it feels long enough from the last one, and it seemed to perform well.
-Smash Ultimate Deluxe to be announced.
They're gonna want Smash of some kind on this thang, and they probably feel there's no way to top the last one. So my guess is they're just gonna do some sort of deluxe version with an awful title that retains all of the characters plus the DLC in one package. Though even this could be tough to do because of licencing.
-Another HD Wii Port
What it will be? No clue! But it feels like they're running out of Wii U stuff...
-Khushrenada will earn the most points in this.
What? That guy knows things! This is a safe bet, don't worry.

Gonna throw out some suggestions of my own:
* Within a week of the Switch 2 launch, some website will run a "taste test comparison" article, to determine whether Switch 2 cartridges have improved anti-lick technology.
* The mysterious new C-button seen on some Switch 2 renders is a shortcut to various bluetooth features, like instantly swapping headsets/controllers.
* Not all 3rd party Switch controllers will work with Switch 2 out of the box, resulting in a minefield of firmware updates and obsolete plastic.
* Xenoblade X Definitive Edition adds a new cliffhanger ending, infuriating fans.
* EA will publish Madden on Switch 2, but not College Football or NHL.
* Wario Land: Shake Dimension gets a port, releases on both Switch 1 and 2.
* Alarmo will quietly be discontinued.
* Konami adds TurboGrafx-16 as an NSO platform, but only for Switch 1 somehow.
* Recycling this prediction: Nintendo will co-publish Mina the Hollower to have it as a time-limited console exclusive in the Switch 2 launch window
* Shin'en will release a sequel to FAST RMX around the Switch 2 launch.
Khushrenada:
Does the upcoming Pokemon Direct count as the first direct and thus the deadline or is it still an official Direct that we are waiting for?

Since we only have 4 submissions so far I guess we'll accept predictions throughout March, unless some bigger set of announcements suddenly drops. Obviously anything announced until now is off the table.
I suppose it puts late submissions at an advantage, since now it seems less likely for something like Pokémon Back In Black or whatever to get announced. If people feel strongly about it, I guess we could limit March predictions to 8 or 9 max.
