Nintendo has made it clear that exclusive games will play a key role in the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2. This statement emerged during a discussion prompted by a shareholder’s inquiry about the continuation of new game releases for the current Nintendo Switch, even after its successor hits the market.
In response to these questions, Nintendo’s president, Shuntaro Furukawa, shared some insights. He mentioned that games like Pokémon Legends: Z-A and Metroid Prime 4: Beyond are on track for a 2025 release on the current Nintendo Switch. Furukawa emphasized that with so many people still actively using the Switch, the company intends to keep delivering engaging content for it, as long as they can develop software that captures players’ interests.
However, he also underscored the importance of exclusive games when launching a new console. The strategy is to explore different avenues to ensure both the Nintendo Switch and its successor appeal to a broad audience of gamers.
For those eager to dive deeper into the details of Nintendo’s upcoming console, a special Nintendo Direct presentation focusing on the Nintendo Switch 2 is scheduled. It will go live on Wednesday, April 2, at 6am PT / 9am ET / 2pm BST / 3pm CEST.
