The great thing about the release of Switch II is that there's a lot of potential for what games will be part of it's release year.
Nintendo games: Metroid Prime 4 (It's more likely it will be out when the new console is) Xenoblade Chronicles X remaster (Long overdue, given the popularity of the series and the other three are on the Switch) F-Zero (With F-Zero 99 faring well, a new game sounds like a great idea) Legend of Zelda GC Collection (Why not? BotW and TotK are doing wonders)
3rd Party: Persona 3 Reload (It will be a welcome addition to the Switch 2 lineup) Armored Core VI (A nice mecha game for Nintendo to have after DxM and Megaton Musashi) Genshin Impact and Honkai Star Rail (Switch 2 would be better for those games to run on)
This is what bugs me the most about the whole thing. Why not just sell the games separate and give players a choice on what classics they want to buy and play? Seems more convenient.
They were supposed to have fixed the quest for those who already used the glittering herring and dandelion syrup for the fish pie. They haven't yet sadly.
Didn't expect Digimon Next: World Order to be coming to the Switch. With Cyber Sleuth and Survive, the Switch will have a Digimon Trilogy playable for it.
Like seeing the likes of Jenny, Cindy and Korra herself included. I do think the game could include more characters from the likes of Hey Arnold, Jimmy Neutron and Korra. Hey, Nick's also got the likes of Harvey Beaks, Fairly Oddparents, Wild Thornberrys, As Told by Ginger and Rocket Power that could be well presented in this game.
Interesting news. I would personally love another Korra game. Maybe one that would include the likes of Mako, Bolin, Asami and even Varrick. And have the series villains and maybe have playable segments for them too.

Re: Rumour: 'Tales Of Xillia Remastered' Switch Release Spotted Online
Hoping Xillia does come to the Switch. Fun game to play back on the PS3.
Re: Metroid Prime 4: Beyond Lead UI Artist Details Work On Samus' Visor And HUD
They just look immaculate.
I'm with @Snatcher and hope Echoes and Corruption get to be remade for the Switch.
Re: Soapbox: Has Nintendo Set A Precedent That 'Switch 2' Can't Hope To Match?
Outselling the Switch will be a huge feat.
But if the successor is more powerful, has backwards compatibility, more options for apps and offers big games for the successor...
The Switch successor has a great chance of selling well IMO. Improved and increase performance is a given too.
Re: Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 Bolsters Its Roster With Another TMNT Character
Funny enough it coincides with the game being on Xbox Pass now.
Re: Round Up: Limited Run Games Showcase 2024 - Every Switch Announcement & Physical
Fighting Force, Gex, Tomba, Clock Tower, Fear Effect, Hitman, Lollipop Chainsaw, Beyond Good & Evil and Penny's. A lot of great content here.
Re: Nintendo Showcases All June 2024 Direct Games With Colourful New Graphic
Great selection there. MP4, MvC Collection, Mario Party, Zelda, Luigi, Edgeworth and Stray will keep me busy for sure.
Re: Feature: 16 Great Late-Gen Nintendo Games - Maybe There's Life In The Ol' Switch Yet
@BodkinDQ
Got that right. The older games are why I keep the likes of the PS Vita, GBA and 3DS close.
Re: LEGO Horizon Adventures Is Coming To Switch, Confirmed For Holiday 2024
Well, this is certainly a surprise. Certainly did not expect to have Horizon in any shape or form on the Switch.
Re: Luigi's Mansion 2 HD Is Looking Suitably Spooky In New Japanese Trailers
I'm up for playing LM2 again. Especially for having the most expressive and (arguably) the cutest boos in the series.
Re: Rumour: Leaker Hints At New Nintendo Codenames, Persona 6 On 'Switch 2', And More
@Ralizah Would be cool If Personas 1 and 2 were playable on newer consoles too.
Re: Tomba! Special Edition Is An Enhanced Release Of A Beloved PS1 Platformer, Out August
Having got this on the Vita years ago, I'm still going to get it on the Switch. Such a fun game from the PS1 era.
Re: Talking Point: 'Remake' Vs. 'Remaster' - What's Your Definition?
@LadyCharlie That's arguably the best way to describe the terms and differences there.
Re: Feature: Nintendo's Latest Studio - Who Is Shiver Entertainment?
Sounds great. Hogwarts Legacy runs well on the Switch.
Shiver is going to do great things with the Switch successor.
Re: Mailbox: 'Switch 2' Launch Ports, Soulslikes For Beginners, Poké Parks - Nintendo Life Letters
The great thing about the release of Switch II is that there's a lot of potential for what games will be part of it's release year.
Nintendo games:
Metroid Prime 4 (It's more likely it will be out when the new console is)
Xenoblade Chronicles X remaster (Long overdue, given the popularity of the series and the other three are on the Switch)
F-Zero (With F-Zero 99 faring well, a new game sounds like a great idea)

Genshin Impact and Honkai Star Rail (Switch 2 would be better for those games to run on)
Re: Best Ace Attorney Games Of All Time
Trials and Tribulations and Spirit of Justice are definitely my favourites in the series.
Re: Gallery: Team Reptile Teases 'Bomb Rush Cyberfunk' With Brand New Screenshots
It looks so much like Jet Set Radio but with skateboarding and BMX. And I'm perfectly OK with that.
Hopefully it's still coming out in the Summer.
Re: Feature: 50 Years Of Landmark Video Games, One Per Year, All Playable On Nintendo Switch
This a truly a wonderful list. The Switch really does have an extensive collection of games to play.
Note: 1996 was when Tekken 2 came out. Tekken 3 came out in 1998.
Re: Countdown: 3DS eShop Spotlight - Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies
The OG Trilogy is still a fantastic experience years later. Get this with Apollo Justice, Dual Destinies and Spirit of Justice while you can.
Re: Metroid Prime Remastered Confirmed For Switch, Launching Digitally Today
One of Nintendo's best shadow drops by far. The Prime trilogy is great, and the first game remaster looks absolutely immaculate IMO.
Re: Life Is Strange 2 Brings More Magical Realism To Switch Next Month
Having played LiS2 on Xbox, I strongly advise against ignoring this title. Especially if you loved the other LiS games.
Re: Fire Emblem Engage Voice Actors Officially Announce Their Characters
Several VAs from My Hero Academia are in Engage. Another Switch title for them after My Hero One's Justice 2.
Re: It's Official, PowerWash Simulator Scrubs Up On Switch This Month
Getting to clean up the Croft Manor? That just makes me want the Reboot Trilogy on the Switch even more.
Re: Persona On Switch - All Games, Where To Start, Beginner's Guide, FAQs
Totally getting the bundle. Already played both games on the Vita, so it'll be nice to play on the Switch.
Tip: 3 and 4 have Social Skills to max out. Don't fret if you're not able to max them out in your first playthrough. NG+ exists.
Re: Feature: Fire Emblem Narratives, Ranked – Which Fire Emblem Has The Best Story?
@Doctor-Moo That would be spectacular. A great way for Nintendo to preserve such wonderful Fire Emblem classics.
Re: Bandai Namco Open To More Tales Remasters, Awaiting Fan Requests
Sounds like a good opportunity to give more exposure to the likes of TotAbyss, Xillia and Zestiria.
Re: Video: 8 Exciting New Games Coming To Nintendo Switch In January
Breakers, Persona 3 & 4 as well as Fire Emblem Engage? Sounds like a good January to me.
Re: Soapbox: 2022 Was A Watershed For Companies Taking Retro Compilations Seriously
Great article. I'm a huge sucker for the retro collections myself, so it's great when they are done well.
Retro collections I'd like to see:
Tekken PSX Trilogy
Classic Mortal Kombat Collection
Xenosaga Collection
Shinobi
Strider
Ecco the Dolphin
Eternal Champions
Jet Set Radio
GTA PSX Collection
Tenchu
Tomb Raider PS Collection
Tomb Raider Reboot Trilogy
Castlevania 3D Collection
Re: Best Of 2022: Why Can't Nintendo Offer Both Virtual Console And Switch Online?
This is what bugs me the most about the whole thing. Why not just sell the games separate and give players a choice on what classics they want to buy and play? Seems more convenient.
Re: Nintendo's 5-Day Holiday Event Continues, More Indie Game News And Switch eShop Shadow Drops
@wuntyme8 Call of the Sea would also be great IMO.
Re: Nintendo Kicks Off 5-Day Holiday Event, With Indie Game News And Switch eShop Shadow Drops
Mortal Shell and Pupperazzi are great choices for the Switch. A good first of five days.
Re: Atlus Shares More Details On Persona 3 And Persona 4 For Switch
No album mode for 3 Portable and 5 Royal? Pity. Would have loved to replay scenes from them.
Re: Upcoming Nintendo Switch Games And Accessories For December 2022 And January 2023
Here's hoping Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden are still coming out on January 19th. Those two are definitely great games as well.
Re: Soapbox: Xenoblade Chronicles X's Influence Is Bigger Than You Think
Still one of the best Wii U games IMO. Porting it to the Switch would be huge given how successful Xenoblade Chronicles 3 was on launch.
Re: Persona 5 Royal's Release On Switch Contributes To Over 1 Million Total Sales
@Olliemar28 And I was one of those to purchase the physical copy of P5R, so that's great to know.
Re: Talking Point: What's The Best Use Of Licensed Music In A Switch Game?
A pity Saints Row 3 and 4 don't get a mention in this talking point. Hearing Paula Abdul in 4 was a blast.
Re: Disney Dreamlight Valley: How To Get Glittering Herring
They were supposed to have fixed the quest for those who already used the glittering herring and dandelion syrup for the fish pie. They haven't yet sadly.
Re: Digimon World: Next Order Is Coming To Switch In 2023
Didn't expect Digimon Next: World Order to be coming to the Switch. With Cyber Sleuth and Survive, the Switch will have a Digimon Trilogy playable for it.
Re: Every Nintendo Switch Online N64 Game Ranked
@wuntyme8 Wonderful selection there. Would be wonderful additions for sure.
Re: Talking Point: What's Your Favourite Music Track From A Nintendo Game?
One song I'm really into is Our Eternal Land from Xenoblade 2. Here's a version by Minnesota State University, Mankato.

Re: Here's The Full Character Line Up For Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3
Like seeing the likes of Jenny, Cindy and Korra herself included. I do think the game could include more characters from the likes of Hey Arnold, Jimmy Neutron and Korra. Hey, Nick's also got the likes of Harvey Beaks, Fairly Oddparents, Wild Thornberrys, As Told by Ginger and Rocket Power that could be well presented in this game.
Re: Meet The Nopon Archsage, Coming In Wave 2 Of Xenoblade Chronicles 3 DLC
Already beaten and loved all non-DLC content that XC3 had to offer. Waiting out for all the DLC to come out before picking up and playing it again.
Re: Persona 3 Portable & Persona 4 Golden Arrive On Nintendo Switch January 2023
Sooner than expected. Already have both on the Vita, but that won't stop me adding them to the Switch collection.
Re: Talking Point: What On Earth Is Going On With Square Enix?
@phartsy One of my favourite PS1 titles! Got it on the Vita.
Re: Talking Point: What On Earth Is Going On With Square Enix?
Square Enix clearly is having a great 2022. Looking forward to the likes of OTII and soe of SE's remasters/remakes.
Re: Avatar: The Last Airbender Nintendo Switch Listing Surfaces Online
Interesting news. I would personally love another Korra game. Maybe one that would include the likes of Mako, Bolin, Asami and even Varrick. And have the series villains and maybe have playable segments for them too.
Ideas aside, I'm most curious for this one.
Re: Video: 10 Exciting New Games Coming To Nintendo Switch In August 2022
TMNT Cowabanga Collection is another one to look forward to.
Re: Poll: Digimon Survive Is Finally Available, Will You Be Getting It?
Waiting for my pre-order. Wanting to get it after Cyber Sleuth.
Re: From The Makers Of Abzu, 'The Pathless' Flies To Switch This Winter
After the brilliance of Abzu, why not give another game a go? The Pathless looks to be worth playing.
Re: Pretty Perspective Puzzler 'Maquette' Is Coming To The Nintendo Switch
Played this on PS4. Nice to see this puzzler coming to the Switch.
Re: KURSK, A Docu-Game About The Nuclear Submarine Disaster, Is Coming To Switch
Jujubee definitely has great games. Deep Diving Adventures is still a great underwater game to play.
