It’s possible you’ll be able to play these on an upgraded version of the Switch. Last week, a report suggested Nintendo plans to unveil a new model of its hybrid console ahead of E3, which runs June 12 to 15.
Not much is known about upcoming Switch games beyond Mario Golf: Super Rush in June, Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD in July and Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl in November. We also might see more about the much-anticipated Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild sequel and long-awaited Metroid Prime 4.
Our last Nintendo Direct happened in February, with showcases for Skyward Sword, Mario Golf and 2022 game Splatoon 3.
