Expect a Nintendo Direct followed by Treehouse on the 25th, yep, not the second week of June, not even on a Tuesday. Nintendo won't be joining Geoff's show for a third time so I guess to get a show out in a quieter month they’ve decided to do their Summer Direct in May, here’s the notable stuff:
- Metroid Prime, yep, it’s finally happening, and it’s just the first game, but it looks like everything’s been redone, out October 16th
- Splatoon 3, missed this part, I don’t think anything crazy happened, although I know for a fact there were no new amiibo announced, out September 9th
- Xenoblade 3, just a reminder, nothing crazy revealed, out July 29th
- Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, same as the last, out June 24th
- Mario Strikers Battle League, as many expected, post-launch support will be coming, Daisy and a desert-like arena will be coming in July, with King Boo coming August, the game’s out June 10th
- Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass Wave 2, the second wave is revealed containing the following tracks:
- Tour Amsterdam Drift
- SNES Vanilla Lake 2
- N64 Kalimari Desert
- DS Waluigi Pinball
- Tour Los Angeles Laps
- GBA Bowser Castle 2
- Wii Mushroom Gorge
- GCN Dino Dino Jungle
The wave will be released June 3rd, with a promise that more content aside from just courses will be coming to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe later in the year
- Ace Attorney 2nd Trilogy, a collection of Apollo Justice, Dual Destinies, and Spirit of Justice, set to release August 26th
- Athena Cykes Ace Attorney, the seventh mainline entry in the series, featuring 8 cases, mainly starring Athena Cykes, with Phoenix taking control for a few cases as well, set to release Holiday 2022
- Bayonetta 3, new trailer, introducing a new cast of characters, as well as an older Jeanne? A lot of unanswered questions, out October 2022
- Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope, new playable characters are shown, including Rabbid and normal Rosalina, Rabbid Wario, and Shrew, out Holiday 2022
