I'm fully expecting nothing but an e3 direct announcement incoming for the next two weeks.

@WoomyNNYes They still would. It'd be a PR nightmare to announce a game for Switch, then have to later reveal it's actually only for a brand new model.

@Slowdive that would be great to see some Dreamcast or Master System IP's

@timleon yah, maybe it's the original stuff that's been over done

@jump correct. What I'm saying is that I'm a Master System die hard and a Sega fan since the 80's but even a fan like me can see their guns are empty with Sonic remakes all over the place. That's all I was saying.

Yeah, there’s precedent with Twilight Princess and Breath Of The Wild too.

The insider buzz is that Nintendo will announce the revised switch hardware before E3, so other companies at E3 can reveal their games that are coming to the Switch. E3 is June 12-15. We've got two weeks until then.

Which... makes me think. If this is true, will one or more of these new games from other companies look like they need more power than the current switch has? I mean, if the new games didn't look suspicious, then Nintendo wouldn't have to announce the revised hardware before E3.

I saw a post by a journo, they are saying the E3 app opens for the media on the 7th June so presumably it will be announced before then at the very latest to avoid the risk of it’s showcasing without Nintendo in control of it.

It could just be the case the want the game too look as good as possible so they want to show it in 400k and 1080fps or whatever rather than the OG Switch showing it in less than its shiniest state.

@jump What is the app for journalists supposed to provide? Surely it doesn't give details on the games that are to be announced as that would be incredibly risky though would explain all the leaks in previous years.

@FragRed Apparently it's an asset list and that type of thing. It's quite normal to being given the material just before the announcement so they can get the article ready as soon as possible, in the past once the press release and other material are given the journos can't use them til they are told they are allowed to but with this being an app outside of their control I'd imagine there's more risk. Like Ninty may not add their stuff til their day but Ubisoft or whoever may casually mention Immortals will have Switch Pro support on it.

Introducing the Nintendo switch pro and knuckles, featuring dante from the devil may cry series. It looks into your original switch or switch v2. Becoming the new Nintendo switch 3d's xl. With two switches combined, it is now 2× as powerful as the ps5 and Xbox series x. How your playing with power, Nintendo power!

Destiny, justice and retribrution will be mine.

FragRed

@jump Oh ok, I understand now. Though still sounds way too risky from a leaking point of view. Companies like Ubisoft struggle as it is to keep games a secret.

Koch Media have a live stream on 11th June. Dunno if they’d announce anything for the Switch, but that again it brings the potential latest date for a Switch Pro reveal forward to 10th June.

Leaker Samus Hunter indicate what games could release on Switch in 2021/2022.

i like HD Rumble.

Samus Hunter is a fraud. Whatever they say has little to no credibility honestly. The only things that they "leaked", in which they got right were from them piggybacking off of other known leakers and leaks, such as the Capcom Monster Hunter Leaks, which came from an actual reliable source. Or Miitopia's switch port, which was actually stated by another "leaker" before Samus Hunter.

@Giancarlothomaz Can't wait to play Ubisoft the Game!

Seriously though, you can't put companies up who support the Switch and have been quiet for a while and claim that's what you know. And the fact there is a question mark to me suggests they are making educated guesses as opposed to having a source hint something. Always happy tobe wrong of course.

I never drive faster than I can see. Besides, it's all in the reflexes.
