As the first month of the year slowly draws to a close, company operations after the busy holiday period are beginning to return to normal. For example, Nintendo has officially announced it will be airing an indie-focused presentation tomorrow on its UK YouTube channel.
Looking further ahead, Nintendo of America's Twitter account has posted a tweet asking followers what Switch games they are most looking forward to in 2019 and the reason why they are so excited about these particular titles. If you want to have your say, all you need to do is reply to the below tweet and it might be included in the first episode of the Nintendo Power Podcast for this year.
2019 is expected to be a big year for Nintendo with upcoming releases on the Switch including games like Yoshi's Crafted World, the new Pokémon title, Animal Crossing and Luigi's Mansion 3.
What games are you looking forward to this year? Do you listen to the Nintendo Power podcast on a regular basis? Tell us below.

I'm reminded I subscribed to this podcast awhile back, I need to give it a listen more. Personally, this year I'm looking forward to Yoshi's Crafted World and Team Sonic Racing so far.
Fire emblem luigi's mansion 3,
Mario kart tour
I'm really looking forward to Daemon X Machina. The Evangelion theme is gonna be playing in my head on repeat from the period of time from when I get the game to when I boot it up for the first time.
I want that new Animal Crossing and I want it now
Daemon X Machina, obviously. Are there other games coming out in 2019?
FFXII, but that's a double dip for me. Had it on PS2.
Definitely pumped for Fire Emblem and Pokémon. Hoping for Dragon Quest 11 and Metroid Prime 4. Oddly enough I’m most excited for SNES online?! How awesome would N64 and GBA emulation be?
I'm hoping that doom eternal comes out in 2019
Metroid Prime 5
F-Zero when they announce it at e3 😋
I'm excited for just about every first-party game this year, but here's my ordered list:
1. Animal Crossing Switch
2. Pokemon 8th Gen
3. Luigi's Mansion 3
4. Fire Emblem Three Houses
5. Yoshi's Crafted World
And I'm currently loving New Super Mario Bros. U. This is an awesome year to be a Nintendo fan!
When it comes to the 1st party games this year, all the above. Most of the 3rd party titles are on my radar too. Animal Crossing, Fire Emblem, Pokemon, Doom and MK11 are probably my top five though. Gonna be another rough year in the wallet. 😁
Fire Emblem Three Houses
Luigi's Mansion 3
Pokemon Gen 8
Let's get some actual first party news.
Hmm...my order would be
1. Animal Crossing
2. Fire Emblem
3. Yoshi
4. Hope for Prime 4 (it'd be 2nd otherwise)
Idk pretty excited for Luigi's Mansion, Pokemon, Dragon Quest XI and Doom too.
The big ones for me are Daemon X Machina and Bayonetta 3..if that does indeed being a 2019 release.
But im excited for pretty much everything thats coming to Switch.
The gods fighting game.... I kid I kid
Animal Crossing
5) A Hat in Time
4) Dragon Quest XI S
3) Pokemon 2019
2) Animal Crossing 2019
1) Fire Emblem: Three Houses
Hotline Miami 1&2
So pumped for Wargroove! Also looking forward to Fire Emblem.
Is Metroid Prime 4 an option?
EA Sports Madden 20
Luigi's Mansion.
Would also like to see the traditional third iteration Pokemon game for Let's Go.
@Bengals76 god I want a madden game on switch so bad!
Who-Dey!
A Hat in Time!!
I'm drooling over the moments I've seen it in action.
Donkey Kong country tropical freeze 2 and skyward sword hd
Animal Crossing, Pokemon and Fire Emblem are the biggest ones that are confirmed.
I'd say Wargroove too, but I have been waiting for that game since the Switch launched... So I am not gonna assume it is coming out until it actually is out.
Well atleast the next upcoming Game which i would count as one of my absolute Most Wanted will be Dragon Marked for Death. Inti Crate did so far an pretty amazing job with their games, but the reason why i can't wait for Dragon Marked for Death is because since Maple Story i looked for an proper offline variant of it, and DMFD come a bit closer to the dream.
Except that, i would say obivviously games like Daemon x Machina, Metroid 4 (if it will be released this year) , animal crossing, yoshi, bayonetta 3, fire emblem... if the leaks are true than Persona 5 for switch and many more.
Daemon X Machina, WarGroove
Fire Emblem: Three Houses
Dragon Quest XI S
Final Fantasy IX
Pokemon, Luigi's Mansion 3, Fire Emblem: Three Houses, and Yoshi's Crafted World. Also more Sega Ages.
For me no exciting titles have been announced for this year, mostly stuff I’m mildly interested if at all. Hopefully we will get DQ Builders 2 (just started the Japanese demo), some kind of a Pikmin announcement (port of 3, or a new one), or a port of Windwaker HD. Metroid coming in 2019 would make everything better, but I don’t expect that.
1. Animal Crossing
2. Persona 5
3. Tokyo Mirage
4. Pokemon
5. Fire Emblem
6. Mario 3D World
Persona Q2, Fire Emblem Three Houses, Pokémon Gen 8, Catherine: Full Body, Persona 5 R (whatever it is), and of course...
DOOM Eternal.
Animal Crossing, and Bayonetta 3 if that comes out this year.
Honestly....although I'm excited for Animal Crossing, my #1 is Wargroove. Where is it?!
SNES games! That is all drops mic
1) Dragon Quest XI S
2) Persona 5
3) a new Pikmin (or even a port to keep me occupied for now)
4) Luigi's Mansion
5) Spiro trilogy
With that and my backlog i'll be fine for 2019 (heck, have not put in more that 5 hours in SSBU yet because of that darn Dark Souls. need to build my new season character in D3 still. Have not played Starlink yet and there are like half a dozen lego games that still need to be finished with my kid)
And what do they want to know that for? Eh? EH?!
Metroid Prime 4 and Fire Emblem, of course!
It will always be Metroid Prime 4 until further notice.
Prime 4, Fire emblem 3 houses, and animal crossing, But the list will change the moment Persona Q 2, Catherine full body, and
Persona 5R are announced.
From the announcements so far:
1. FFXII and Crystal Chronicles
2. Nelke and the Legendary Alchemists
3. The Liar Princess and the Blind Prince
4. Resident Evil
5. Terraria
Honorable mention: Saints Row 3rd (I don't rule out a chance it may tempt me even ahead of Saints Row 2 I've yet to start).
From A Snork Can Dream Direct:
1. FFXIII trilogy
2. Bioshock Collection
3. Dishonored [collection]
4. Watch Dogs 1 [and 2]
5. Resonance of Fate (and a few more tri-Ace/tri-Crescendo works from that period, but RoF is at least being ported to other consoles already)
Honorable mention: a TES Arena remake based on TES Online assets. [/wildimagination]
And yeah, I doubt this would get featured in the podcast, mentioning no first-party games in the year of Fire Emblem and Pokemon. Don't get me wrong, they're just walled off by gargantuan franchise backlogs. Although I might invest in Pokemon in advance purely not to miss early events and giveaways (been there, done that as Moon is my witness - bought almost at launch and still saved in Route 3 Poke Center)
EDIT: and again I'm reminded that NL comment section is allergic to hyphenated lists. I miss old forums where all this quirky stuff was at least displayed for reference above the comment field and you couldn't accidentally use it due to formatting bracket use anyway. XD
EDIT2: not fond of numbered lists since they look like charts even when they imply none, but when the engine swallows three different kinds of symbols after stubbornly converting them to asterisks... ¯(ツ)/¯
Fire emblem.
Anything from Capcom.
More sega ages dreamcast titles please!
Prime if it's coming this year but I don't think so!
Metroid Prime 4
Metroid Prime 4
That's an easy one for me: Wargroove
And while it seems to be a dead loss I'm still hoping for a Final Fantasy Tactics. I always liked it more then the Fire Emblem franchise and even more since Fire Emblem to me seems like they're milking a cow with all the overpriced DLCs.
Animal crossing, with out a doubt.
Animal Crossing and Luigi's mansion for me however, i am also patiently waiting on Pikmin 4 too
Dragon Quest XI S.
Fire Emblem: Three Houses.
Daemon X Machina
Bayonetta 3
Resident Evil 1
SNES games
Angry Video Game Nerd 2pack
Pokemon
Sega Ages Dreamcast games
Streets of Rage 4
Maybe Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem
Animal Crossing, Dusk, Streets of Rage 4, and Fire Emblem: Three Houses.
I’m super excited for Luigi’s Mansion, Ninjala , Pokemon, Wolfenstein (hopefully!), and Marvel. I enjoy Yoshi and Animal Crossing but they’re not the big guns for me. I know we have a pretty good year in terms of what we know is coming out but I’m still thinking there’s going to be a surprise.
Pokemon
Pokemon
Pokemon
Fire Emblem
Dragon Quest XI
Shin Megami Tensei V
Pokemon
FF12, Personsa 5, and maybe Animal Crossings if it's anything like StardewValley. Oh and that cat one too, Mineko's Night Market.
Fire Emblem Three Houses, Animal Crossing 2019, Pokemon 2019, & Digimon Survive if the West actually gets that this year.
GTA V (yeah, right!)
I’m looking forward to Doom Eternal, Animal Crossing, and Mortal Kombat 11.
