The fact Nintendo are holding a June Direct at all kinda suggests there's some significant new content still to come for the current Switch.

We saw back in 2020 that when Nintendo doesn't have much to share they have no problem with holding back and staying silent.  There probably won't be anything on the level of TOTK or Mario Bros Wonder this year, but it shouldn't be a rerun of Wii 2012 or Wii U 2016 or just a few old remasters either.

Pretty much, my take on it as well. You just don't go into a possibly 30 min. presentation, you've already announced just to basically announce jack sh*t, except a couple third party. 

Unless ... They haven't specified what type of Direct we are getting lol. 

Mostly kidding though, we're definitely getting a main Direct which will most likely feature at least 2-3 pieces of Nintendo software worthy to finish the active Switch span cycle.

Prediction, one of them is going to be Metroid Prime 4 + Prime 2/3 Remaster, Zelda WW/Twilight Princess HD ports and ... A new Grezzo game ! (Just don't make it flop like Ever Oasis plz)

Yeah I can't see them dropping another Partner Showcase, not when they have no first party software dated passed June. Even the dying days of Gamecube/Wii/Wii U had some first party content, they're not gonna let their most successful system ever go out worse than that, not when they have a userbase of over 140 million to sell to.

A Mini doesn't seem likely either given they'll be covering 6 months worth of software; Minis are usually stopgaps covering a shorter period.
