I like that you didn't even use one of your existing dupes, you actually went to the trouble of making a new one just for this joke.

« Last post by Mop it up on February 02, 2026, 04:04:31 PM »The second year of a system is always interesting. You just never know what kind of wacky stuff may show up in this era situated between the launch lineup and the next big hitters.
...Or do we? Let's find out!
-Pokémon Gen 10 will be announced, and releases in November.
I don't expect that they'll push this back for more than a year, plus it's the 30th anniversary of Pokémon so this will be ample time for a new Gen. This is probably my safest bet prediction here.
"Safe bet" is an oxymoron
-There will also be Switch 1 versions of the next Pokémon games.
I think this is big enough to separate this as its own prediction, so that my previous won't get dinged as a halfsie. The Switch userbase is huge, I can't see them wanting to give that up just yet by making these exclusive to Switch 2. Now, there may be more differences between the two than the typical "Switch 2 Edition" nonsense, hard to say.
The only nonsense here is you
New Monster Hunter game announced for the Switch 2 that is not a port of Wilds
Nintendo seem to get their own series of MH games, so I don't see Wilds being ported. It's been long enough since the last one on Switch that I could see this happening soon. If it does end up being a port, then I'd bet it's World instead since that was on PS4.
Just mix them all together, Rise of the Wild World Ultimate
-New game revealed from Next Level Games
It may not end up releasing this year, but I think they're due for something soon. I don't think they used many resources on the LM2 port, if they even had involvement in it. It will probably be Luigi's Mansion 4, since none of their other projects seemed to sell well, but I am hoping to see something new from them.
That's about as likely as us seeing something new from you
At least two more "Nintendo Switch 2 Editions" announced.
I'll be bolder than saying just one, but I won't try to pick specific ones because I have no idea what they might choose. The ones they've done so far have felt a little random.
Now that's a bold-faced lie
-Smash Ultimate Deluxe to be announced.
I'm doubling down on this one from last year. Smash has been a second-year title for the past three consoles. 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.
When are we gonna get New Super Mop it up Deluxe?
-Re-release of a previous Zelda game.
I know it's kind of lame how much I'm just copying over from last year, but isn't this year the 40th anniversary of Zelda? I can't see them having a new one ready yet, so I guess that they'll do yet another re-release of something.
I think you're just copying spambot posts now
-A Microsoft IP will show up on Switch 2.
Now I'm copying someone else with this one, but I dunno what else to predict and I like this bold guess. And I don't mean a Rare IP, I mean something along the lines of Halo or Gears.
That really grinds my gears
-StarTropics is finally revived.
Your bologna has a last name, and it's Up
Quiet you! It's gonna happen!
-A special edition Switch 2 console will release sometime this year.
There are a lot of anniversaries happening this year, so I predict at least one will get a special system for it. There are too many to guess which one.
Take a drink every time she says "predict" or "prediction."
BONUS PREDICTION (Not part of the above 10)
Khushrenada will procrastinate too long and submit his lists an hour after the first Direct.
No excuses now, mate.
If Khushrenada is so great, then why is there no Khushrenada 2?

« Last post by broodwars on January 30, 2026, 06:33:11 PM »I definitely want to pick up a true physical version of this game if they ever make it, but I won't buy an apparently heavily-censored version when all the other versions on the other platforms are untouched.

« Last post by unlinedmorbid on January 30, 2026, 02:40:23 AM »It's incredibly engaging. It's just like the old Telltale games but with a fresh, updated feel. The characters have depth, the dialogue is excellent, and the gameplay, especially the dispatch system, is also interesting. The Switch version has some visual issues, which is a bit of a shame, but overall it's still a very worthwhile experience.

Nintendo Gaming / Re: What will Nintendo release in 2026?
« Last post by Order.RSS on January 29, 2026, 11:47:29 PM »With the announcement of the Virtual Boy release cycle, I guess I’m timed out of this experiment. Also, it’s the end of January so I think I missed my chance. I find the current state of the industry and Nintendo’s place in it to be a bit miserable, so I didn’t have the heart to predict any delightful surprises or rational expectations for what Nintendo will release this year. I hope all your dreams come true and you earn points for the Switch 2 hardware becoming more expensive, and I hope Fire Emblem is Nintendo’s biggest release of the year but doesn’t meet sales expectations.
If you change your mind, you're still welcome to drop any predictions! I tend to close submissions when the first general Direct goes live, which I imagine will occur in a week or so. Obviously things like the Tomodachi Life and Virtual Boy release dates are off-limits for points purposes by now, but maybe the points have always been made up and don't matter.
Fwiw, I share some of the sentiment regarding both the industry as well as Nintendo's current trajectory. It's harder to care for Nintendo's conveyor belt approach to whimsy when they're doing a lot of seemingly "safe" sequels. Plus there's the whole state of the world to contend with, which makes taking guesses at a company's software plans feel perhaps even more frivolous than it ever has been.
So yeah, don't feel obligated to participate of course, but know that you're welcome to join if you'd like.
