I think we get a real good look at 2025 and Beyond in September. A couple gorgeous remakes to show off the hardware, a new mainline Mario game, and a party game - the first party announcements last year - are a pretty good launch line up for a new console. Last year's "E3" Direct announced and dated the second half of the year, notably Wonder. I think the Switch 2 is gets it's proper show off instead of a June Direct. Date every single one of those Level-5 games. Give us a big-ish announcement for Summer - ( Prime 4 bebe). Give us a small-ish unannounced, unrumored game - a Kirby spinoff, a Yoshi game, Nintendo agrees to translate that Goemon-like GoodFeel did for the west.

If they hadn't we would have known most of the Switch's remaining software library decently in advance, leaving them with only minor announcements between late 2021 and now.

Everything had dates, except for Prime 4 and nothing very far in the future. ![]() It started last year, when we started to run out of announced games going into February. That's just because as the end of your generation gets closer, you can't announce as far in advance. Yes, the lack of future games on the schedule is probably because of Switch 2.
