Forums - Nintendo - Likely 1st party titles for 2020

Animal Crossing, Pokemon Diamond/Pearl remakes, and BOTW 2 will be the major titles for Switch next year.



Around the Network

Of totally unannounced games, I'm somehow expecting some Chibi-Robo title (don't ask me why, don't know either). Also, finally a new F-Zero title. I'm also expecting either another Labo title or another use for the Ring from RFA, maybe as a Wii Sports successor.

On Remakes, NES Remix. Plus a successor, SNES Remix, being announced.

As for already announced games, maybe Bayonetta 3 could be released next year. Offtopic, but also SMT 5 finally!

BOTW2 and MP4 are still to early in development for a release next year, I expect BOTW2 in 2021 and MP4 in 2022.

3) Ports & Remakes

There are still a few Wii U games left to port.  On top of that we got Link's Awakening this year and Xenoblade Chronicles is on the way.  Nintendo will likely have at least one other port in 2020 either from the Wii U or an older console.

I think the Wii U ports period is over now, the last port was way back in early 2019 (New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe).

Early next year will release Tokyo Mirage Sessions. Looks like it isn't over yet. Given, there is not much left. Although all the great HD remasters of past Zeldas might be a great porting opportunity. Also 3D World.

I didn't see Tokyo Mirage Sessions as a 1st Party Title (I don't know the game though).

And I don't think we will ever see a 3D World port.

Hmm, true about TMS, it is a collaboration, which makes it hard for me to pin down if it is 1st or 3rd-party.

Well we can apply the Mario+Rabbids precedent, which is a Rabbids game (and thus a 3rd party title).

Here are some things we might see in 2020.

1) The usual suspects - games that regularly come out on handheld or home consoles.

Wario game (either platformer or smooth moves)
Mario RPG
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon (or other Pokemon spinoff)
Proper 2D Mario game (non-port or non-Maker)
Proper Donkey Kong Country (non-port)
Bayonetta 3
Metroid Prime 4
Tomodachi
Nintendogs
2D Metroid
various Mario Sports titles

2) Revive old franchises

Advance Wars
Punch Out
F-Zero
Starfox
Excitetruck/bots
Wii Sports (or something like it)
Kid Icarus
Golden Sun
Star Fox

Lots of others.  Too many to count.

Oh damn yeah i just now noticed that Camelot studio still exist but when they ever get the chance to make a new one i hope they start with a brand new slate for the series and forget Golden Sun :Dark Dawn ever happened. :p
