June is an incredibly exciting time for the video game industry, but this year things will obviously be quite different. Despite the cancellation of E3, there'll still be plenty of reveals and digital shows to watch online. So what exactly is happening on the Nintendo front?
If multiple listings dating back to earlier this week are anything to go by, it seems there'll be a lot of titles announced for the Switch during this period. Now, according to GoNintendo, one extra unannounced Switch title has been listed. Once again, it's been spotted on Amazon France, and this time it's from Take-Two Interactive - making it the second Switch listing on behalf of this company.
The placeholder itself isn't much to look at, but here it is anyway:
For those unfamiliar with Take-Two Interactive, it's the parent company of both Rockstar Games and 2K. With two unannounced Switch games on the way, surely at least one of them is a basketball game - perhaps a new NBA 2K or another Playgrounds title? Or how about some GTA? We'll try not to get our hopes up.

It could maybe be that GTA 1&2 remaster?
Mafia Collection Baby!!!
So many random listings popping up. It's almost like Amazon France didn't get the memo that E3 was cancelled.
It seems whatever someone finds New Amazon Listings for Games most of time it's fake or some type of error.
It's surprising not to see GTAV on Switch yet, as it could sell like hotcakes, but if it hasn't come out already, I don't know if it will. Perhaps the online infrastructure of the Switch isn't good enough for GTA Online...
I think this is going to be either NBA or Mafia.
Don’t Stop ‘Till You Get Enough... keep the games coming!
Yum.. Speculation!!! My favorite
I think it's the Mafia Collection
@Sun-WuGoku Hope it includes the London expansion!
Pretty sure Amazon France has always been wrong
Just give me Metroid, Mario, Starfox releases, that’s all I care about:)
Mafia 2 from the looks of things. I wish it will be a GTA game though.
I’m hoping for GTA III and Vice City.
GTA 5 ,it's been a long wait!
I dont belive it until I have seen it.
If it's GTA, I'll Take Two! (Don't judge me, someone has to keep it in the UK charts!)
Max Payne 3 I’m thinking....great game
Isn't WWE published by 2K still? If so, it'll be that cartoony one I would think...
@GrailUK better make it 5. You know, one to play, one to use as a drink coaster, a few to give out to new neighbors... the usual.
(Seriously, how has that game not reached max saturation yet?)
See this is what happens when Nintendo do not give out information, and all we are left with is place holders on websites, of course the masses will just carry on and wait for games to be announced, where the core minorities will continue the speculation and wish lists, then try to see if some previous rumors might shed some light on matters too.
Obviously it's a typo. The listing is actually for Tak 2: The Staff of Dreams, being remade as a launch title for Nintendo's next-gen system, the Nintendo Switch 2!
@Ryu_Niiyama Every generation of school kid likes to steal cars I fear and mess about. Because it IS kids that are playing it.
@Sun-WuGoku
with LONDON dlc please and some chips.
Chinatown Wars or gtfo.
@the_beaver I believe it actually does have something to do with the online infrastructure. Or at least that could be part of the reason. I won't go into the other parts, I personally think Rockstar isn't very fond of Nintendo.
But concentrating on just the online side of it, they could still give us 1 to 4 or even 5 without the online.
The thing is, GTA 5 needs a stupidly big patch for the online. It would most likely be 50+ gigs.
Many people, myself included. Wouldn't buy GTA 5 if there was a patch that took 50 gigs. Like Doom they could make it optional. But even then, you'll be missing the best part of the game because it'll be locked behind a stupidly huge patch.
Always Bet On Duke
I’d love Red Dead Redemption and the Undead Nightmare package if I’m honest. Still in my Top 5 games of all time
@Joker1234 proof? Last time I checked listings are usually real
@Spartan48 sources?
@PickledKong64 my memory
Red Dead Redemption
It is probably another version of NBA 2K
Wishes:
Batman Arkham Games
Metal Gear Solid Games
Kingdom Hearts Games
Some kind of TMNT Compilation games or at least the two arcades remastered or just downloadable.
Remastered Chrono Trigger
I will definitely buy:
Nintendo Switch Listing game 2,
Nintendo Switch Listing game 5 and
Nintendo Switch Listing game 11.
Thanks NintendoLife.
I would actually prefer GTA4 as 5 has been remastered to death. Would love to play through that story again and tye two DLC packs.
GTA V is a no-brainer.
C'mon, you know you guys want this game to sell a few million more copies.
@Razer The best part of the game is locked behind a patch? Why would they hide the single player behind that and keep the MTX infested hellhole what is Online on cart?
@WallyWest lol yeah I guess that's true.
I'm still shocked GTA V hasn't been brought over yet. I doubt it would take much effort to port the PS3 version and just upgrade things here and there.
Hey Nintendolife, can we get some reviews on Bioshock, Borderlands and Xcom 2 collections? I checked them out yesterday and they are gorgeous. In fact, they look much better than Xenoblade Chronicles DE, which, while improved from the Wii version, looks kind of dated. The fact is, we got three AAA series on the Switch. That's huge.
@kingbk you cant compare those games to xenoblade man they have different art styles and i still think xenoblade has the most beautiful environment over those games.
All the rumored listings are great, but it's to be expected at this time of the year. Here's hoping they don't take the anti-consumer approach Next Level Games has with Luigi's Mansion 3, and not include an inverted y axis so Millions more can play.
I know everyone really wants GTA 5 on Switch, me included - but I'd personally really like to see GTA 4 and San Andreas more.
Red Dead, GTA V? Perhaps a collection?
Grand theft auto Chinatown wars remastered 720p
Indeed time to replay GTA IV.
You cannot first bring V and then IV.
But I am afraid Rockstar said goodbye to Nintendo quite some time ago when it comes to GTA. If they are smart though, they know it will bring in significant additional sales.
Fingers crossed.
I’m guessing a Mafia 2 belated port.
I would hope Mafia 1 and 2 (maybe 3?), plus GTA III, Vice City, San Andreas, Liberty City Stories and Vice Stories collections. Those would be my hopes for those SKUs.
@Sun-WuGoku Didn't 2K and Rockstar lose the right to the original GTA and its sequel? 1 and 2 have never been re-released to my knowledge. It seems the revisionist version of GTA history is to start at III and go forward.
I would love to see the original two GTAs personally, but I don't think they'll be coming.
GTAV? Why not, I’m sure they could use another billion dollars.
Yeah I don't understand why ANY GTA game has not been brought to the Switch get? It would be easy money!? It blows my mind really when games like the outer worlds and the Witcher 3 look and run amazingly on the hardware.
@FourBs that's what I was thinking
Those two take two games will obviously be Mafia and NBA... No gta or red dead yet but we shouldn’t loose hope I guess. Although if i could choose, I would take GTAIV and RDR1 over GTAV and RDR2 any day, if only for a technical issue. I’d rather play a smooth 1080p 30fps than the alternative. Speaking of which:
@RiasGremory
Keep telling yourself that and encouraging malpractices by paying full price for a half assed port/remaster. For the time being I am enjoying much more demanding games than XC at 720p 30fps handheld (yes Borderlands 2 and Bioshock infinite are much more demanding than a wii game from 2010). It is insane to actually pretend to be happy to play such a dated game at a lower resolution in 2020.
