For better or Franceworse, no one does it like Nintendo.
While we've spent the past three months heavily anticipating the Nintendo Switch 2-themed Nintendo Direct livestream that's happening on April 2, the mothership decided to announce another surpriseNintendo Direct for Thursday, March 27 at 10 a.m. ET. It's set to be about 30 minutes long, and you can watch it on Nintendo's YouTube channel.
As for what to expect in this stream, it's basically anyone's guess. However, be warned that there will be no Switch 2 informationin this Direct whatsoever. It is going to be entirely focused on OG Switch games, and since there are no upcoming first-party Switch games with firm release dates right now, there's a lot of mystery around this stream. I would not be surprised at all to see Metroidpop up here in one form or another, whether it's a bigger reveal for the upcoming Metroid Prime 4or another remaster of an older Metroidgame to whet your whistle until Prime 4comes out.
But really, outside of that, it's very difficult to even speculate about what we'll see. That's what makes it fun, I suppose.
