Also, the fact that you could make a pretty robust looking schedule by only adding 4 games we don't know about, 2 of which (pokemon gen 10 and an anniversary zelda game) are essentially guaranteed, kind of shows why Nintendo didn't need a February general direct.
Yeah, I wasn't surprised we only got a Partner for this reason. They already had a stacked first half of the year, they probably didn't feel the need to reveal much in the near future. The question marks are more for the 2nd half of the year, and they probably feel that can wait until June.
@FishyS, oops, pardon my memory, I completely forgot about the Splatoon spin-off. I suppose that would be somewhere in late Summer or early Fall, think August or September. If they did that, they'd probably not do Kirby, Zelda, or one of the Switch 2 Editions.
My top 5 favorite games:
1: Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1
2: Pokémon Violet
3: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
4: The Legend of Zelda Link's Awakening (2019)
5: Animal Crossing New Horizons
Mario Maker 2 Maker ID: MNH-8JB-PKG

@Nep-Nep-Freak Zelda is definitely happening; they aren't 100% skipping the 40th anniversary even if it's just a port. And Hal has been fairly quiet since 2023 so I feel like either they give us a game this year or some big 3D Kirby is coming next year.
Technically Nintendo hasn't said Splatoon Raiders is 2026, but it would be a bit surprising if it wasn't. If it is a smaller spinoff and not meant to be one of the main Splatoons, I could imagine it getting stuck in December or during a month another game is also coming out.
