Nintendo announced that it will hold, on Thursday, 27, at 11am (Brasília time), a 30-minute expected Nintendo Direct. Nintendo will dedicate the event exclusively to Original Nintendo Switch games. The Japanese giant has already said that it will not bring any information about the next console, the long -awaited Nintendo Switch 2.
- Nintendo Switch 2 should use artificial intelligence in graphics
- Nintendo Switch 2: Expected highlights in the next Direct
The company will broadcast the live presentation on the official YouTube channel and other digital platforms. The expectation is high, as this can be one of the last direct focus directs on the console released in 2017. The announcement of new titles, as well as known games updates, should master the programming, as well as possible partnerships with external studios.
Expectation revolves around metroid prime 4 and possible surprises
Among the launches awaited by fans, the most commented name is Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. Announced years ago, the title has not yet had an official release date confirmed. Although the presence of the game is not guaranteed in this edition, the absence of any mention of Switch 2 reinforces the possibility that the title finally appears in the broadcast. Nintendo should also make room for third party productions, which continue to launch unprecedented content for the switch.
In addition to traditional revelations, fans also speculate about the chance of shadowdrops - surprise releases available shortly after the presentation, a strategy that Nintendo has successfully adopted on other occasions. This practice usually generates strong engagement on social networks and boosting digital sales immediately.
Nintendo will highlight the new console in a separate event
Nintendo will keep this Thursday's Direct focus on the current switch and present the details of Nintendo Switch 2 on a broadcast scheduled for April 2, at 10am (Brasília time). According to Nintendo itself, this event will bring important news about the successor of the current console, including possible retrocompatibility information with the previous generation games.
Thus, the company's strategy is clear: ensuring a decent closure for the switch cycle while preparing land for the next chapter of its console line. The company uses this edition of Nintendo Direct as the final showcase for games that will still reach the original console while preparing the land for the new model.
