Hi-Fi Rush, Psychonaunts 1 and 2, Sunset Overdrive. And of course any Rare Replay/ any Rare titles that aren't on NSO already. If MS can't put Rare Replay on Switch due to the emulated 360 games, then do it on Switch 2.

I can see this being a launch game or close to launch. Either way, sign me up when it does happen.

Great to see Mario vs DK on top of both the UK and Japanese charts this week.

Some of those tweets are blaming Nintendo for this, but it's totally up to Microsoft to release Rare Replay on Switch....

Wow, nice lineup of games here. Nice to see more and more Rareware titles on Switch, where they belong.

Better than I was expecting, especially since the Switch is winding down. Got some neat surprises like Epic mickey, a new monkey ball and Penny's BB being shadow dropped. Totally expect any new, major 1st and 3rd parties to be saved for Switch 2 or be cross gen releases.

Good to see the positive previews, not that I'm surprised since this always looked like it would be a solid game. Definitely picking this up eventually.

Definitely interested in this game. All the transformations look pretty cool.

The 2022 partner showcase was good, so it's not like these partners can't be solid. With that said, as usual, I'm going in zero expectations.

If there's actually an internal 'delay' due to games not being ready, then I think they can coast this year with smaller titles, remakes etc. Not to mention they have the existing Switch library with countless evergreen titles.

I still think Switch 2 is coming this year, but if it's early 2025 and we only get smaller titles this year, it is what it is. Certainly can't be any worse than 2016 for the 3DS and Wii U.

This could be referring to Brazil specifically, remember the Switch didn't launch in Brazil until 2020. Maybe the Switch 2 would release worldwide mid-late this year in most of the world and Brazil in early 2025.

Even if this means a worldwide 2025 release, I wouldn't mind. I have plenty to play on Switch in the meantime and I trust Nintendo to deliver a quality 1 year for Switch 2 if it means "delaying" it.

That's fine. Rather just buy games like Hi Fi Rush, pentiment etc that are likely to come to Switch. As for Rare titles, add them to NSO or just put Rare replay on Switch.

I'll gladly take Hi-Fi Rush, Pentiment and Grounded on Switch. Not my cup of tea, but Sea of Thieves is also a nice game to have on Switch.

I still want to buy this at some point. Always nice to have a more relaxing, easy going game.

This sounds great, already have this purchased. Can't wait for the end of the month.

Assuming this is true, sign me up for both.

Yup, Sega completely fumbled with release timing and pricing.

And yet Switch still moved more hardware.

I'm in a bit of a Persona backlog(amidst the much larger actual backlog,lol) on Switch, so I don't mind waiting for P3R on Switch 2.

Interesting. Always felt Sony forced Nintendo's hand with their purchase of EVO. I imagine Sony wants to have all the games present to be played on Playstation hardware.

What an accomplishment. So well deserved for the Switch.

Nearly 140M, very impressive. Could very well pass PS2 for best selling gaming platform of all time, insane.

Great to see TotK already at 20M. Pretty remarkable that only two Zelda games can combine for 50M+ in sales.

Definitely going to be interesting if we see a bunch of Xbox games heading to Switch 2. Wouldn't surprise me after we got the Oris, a few Rare titles via NSO etc. on the current Switch and will likely get HiFi Rush as well.

It's definitely going to happen sooner or later, no need to argue semantics.

Totally deserved for the Switch, such an amazing platform.

Been wanting to play this ever since it came out last year, this would be a nice announcement at the February Direct(which will probably happen).

A fair prediction since the Switch is closing in on 140M units sold and it's really hard to replicate that. But that doesn't mean Switch 2 won't be successful in its own right.

Haven't had a Capri Sun in ages, but I love to see Pikmin alongside Animal Crossing and Mario Kart in this promotion.

I would prefer OLED, but it makes sense they're going with LCD. Going with LCD definitely isn't a deal breaker for me, it'll all be about the games.

Sounds fun. I already have the expansion pass purchased, so I'm locked and loaded.

One of my favorite games on PS2, definitely getting this on Switch as well.

Definitely interested in more Kirby titles, especially ones that will follow Forgotten Land's formula. Easily my favorite Kirby game.

Pretty cool. I'm really enjoying all the different costumes and playstyles for Peach in this game.

Yeah, most likely saved for the successor. I don't mind waiting personally, still have to finish P5 royal and Strikers on Switch, so I have plenty of Persona to keep me occupied until then.

I'm glad they went with the more simplistic UI; less is more. I never plan on spending time or looking at the UI, I strongly prefer it to be fast and responsive.

Actually a decent percentage considering we know next to nothing about it. Of course more and more devs. will be getting dev. kits as time goes on.

Edit: Just for reference, I checked a GDC survey back in March 2017 and only 3% of devs. were working on Switch games at the time. So yeah, already looking good for Switch 2.

Yup, Mario Wonder being a strong evergreen seller is no surprise. Also nice to see Pikmin 4 still doing quite well.

No surprise it gets a nomination for GotY, such a masterpiece.

Tired of the comparisons to Splatoon, but.....Foamstars was clearly inspired by Splatoon. Make that make sense.

Yeah, I'll stick with Splatoon 3, thank you very much.

I had a feeling sales would improve since Kingdom Battle was a good evergreen title, often going on sale as low as $15. Really hope we see more entries in this series.

That's insane. Really happy to see TotK do this well in Japan.

This is neat. Never finished the 1st one and never even played the 2nd, so this is great to have them on NSO.

One of my favorite PS2 games, spent so much time redoing all the missions in various different ways. Definitely want to get this on Switch, the new additions look neat too.

No surprise this turned out well, Ubisoft Montpellier knows their stuff. The glowing reviews has pushed me to get this sooner rather than later.

Switch still very dominant in Japan all these years later. Really happy to see Pikmin and Mario Wonder doing really well.

Nice to see Zelda and Mario get plenty of nominations. A shame Pikmin 4 didn't a nomination in the 'Strategy/Simulation Game of the Year' category. It totally deserves it.

This looks good. I never played the original GBA game, so it'll be a new experience for me. The added content is a nice bonus too.

Pretty neat, might have to hop back into Smash for this.

This makes sense. Prior instances like Metroid Dread and the warriors games were successful, so it wouldn't surprise me if they reached out to more partners.

Hi Fi Rush has been rated for Switch, PS4 and XB1 in Australia, looks like this is true. 👀

Pretty impressive to see Switch and its software doing fairly well, even in Nintendo's weakest market.
