Nintendo has scheduled a Nintendo Direct focused on the Nintendo Switch, set for tomorrow, March 27th, at 7 a.m. PT. This 30-minute presentation will showcase upcoming games for the console. Notably, Nintendo has clarified that there will be no updates regarding the Nintendo Switch 2 during this event, as those details will be shared in a separate Switch 2 Direct on April 2nd at 6 a.m. PT.
Fans can expect to see a lineup of exciting titles for the Switch, which has sold an impressive 150.86 million units. Despite the buzz around the upcoming Switch 2, the current Switch's massive audience remains a key focus for Nintendo, publishers, and developers. Anticipated games like Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, Professor Layton and the New World of Steam, and Pokémon Legends: Z-A are slated for release on the Switch in 2025 and later this year, respectively. Additionally, Hollow Knight: Silksong, initially announced for multiple platforms including the Switch, is expected to be compatible with both the original Switch and the Switch 2, given the latter's backward compatibility.
This Nintendo Direct may serve as a final showcase for the Switch, highlighting Nintendo's last major exclusives before shifting focus to the Switch 2. However, Nintendo might still have some surprises in store for fans of the beloved console.
