Yeah if they really had no unannounced games left for Switch, Princess Peach Showtime and the Paper Mario remake would have been held back for the second half of the year.

There's no way Nintendo just decided "oh yeah we're gonna walk away from the most profitable system we've ever had before it's even replaced".

If you (and anyone else) could see the future for this Direct. What games would be announced?

Personally, I think there'd be:

Legend of Zelda remakes (either WW or TP)

Metroid 2 & 3 remakes

Metroid 4

Super Mario Wonder DLC

Super Mario Party 2

DK 2D game

Ngl looking at this list, this Direct would be rather stacked.

I'm not good with predictions, but I'd say we'll get some ports from previous consoles like maybe the rumored Kirby and the Rainbow Curse and perhaps as you say Prime 2/3 or Wind Waker/Twilight Princess. A Fire Emblem remake is also rumored, and I expect we'll get at least one new game, perhaps something medium sized like Princess Peach Showtime but for a different IP.

Prime 4 is the wildcard; it's been 5 and a half years since it was rebooted under Retro, so this feels like the "final call" for it to be shown if it's still a Switch 1 game. If it's not at this Direct, I'll take that as confirmation that it's either crossgen or next gen and they're holding it back to show alongside Switch 2.
