Unlikely there will be any new hardware, but in terms of game releases, I think this might be Nintendo's best year ever! Surpassing even 2017. Do you think it will be?

In terms of just exclusives, here are the list of games that are, at this time, confirmed for 2022:

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2

Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope

Splatoon 3

Mario Strikers: Battle League

Xenoblade Chronicles 3

Live A Live Remake

Triangle Strategy

Pokémon Legends: Arceus

Kirby and the Forgotten Lands

Advance Wars 1+2 Reboot Camp

Nintendo Switch Sports

Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes

Bayonetta 3

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet

Of course the list may change as some games may be pushed to 2023 or even more games that may be announced at an E3 Direct, but this is still an out of this world lineup!

I'm expecting further DLC for some games to be announced (*cough Mario Party Superstars) We'll also be getting quite a few "new" courses in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe throughout 2022. There's also the rumors of the Metroid Prime Remake/Prime Trilogy, new Donkey Kong, and new Fire Emblem.
