The last Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase took place in February 2024 and highlighted games from Nintendo’s publishing and development partners. Some of the highlights included Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed, Grounded and Pentiment as the first Xbox first-party games to come to Switch, Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble, Star Wars Battlefront Classic Collection, and much more.

The last Indie World Showcase aired in April 2024 and featured such titles as Steamworld Heist 2, Lorelei and the Laser Eyes, Europa, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate, Animal Well, Another Crab’s Treasure, and more.

As for the successor to the Nintendo Switch, Nintendo itself has signaled that fans shouldn’t expect it before April 2025. Will we get some tease of it before the end of the year? Only time will tell.

Who knows? Maybe Hollow Knight: Silksong will finally show its face and help with the wait! We can dream! What are you most excited about for tomorrow? Let us know below!
