What I expect:

Deep presentation of the Switch 2 non-graphical capabilities
Release date (I expect early July)
Prices of the Switch 2 models (I expect at least 2 different packages at launch)
Metroid Prime 4 multiplatform confirmation
First look at a new 3D Mario title, Spatoon 4, plus some other titles
A new IP based on the Mouse mode
NSO successor presentation and pricing
Potentially some 3rd party game shown

That's about it; I expect more game details coming closer to launch and this one being more about the console itself.

Its going to be hell to try and avoid spoilers.

In the same boat buddy ...

Gonna be real hard to discipline myself and try not to look at anything before I get home to watch it in full.

+ I'll prolly have to know if the pre-orders get started on the same day or later since I do wanna get one Day one.

I hope for something real meaty that is significantly more exciting than the Switch 1 presentation back in early 2017. Showing off the next Mario Kart and revealing the next 3D Mario are both gonna happen and the latter should hopefully show of the capabilities of the Switch 2 really well. Adding Gamecube to Switch 2 NSO would be a nice hype booster for many.

If Nintendo announces pre orders shortly after their Direct, its going to be damn near impossible not to get spoiled, while securing a Day One console lol. I'm certainly going to have to fight to avoid being spoiled during my break.

Does anybody else get the feeling that Switch 2 hype is a bit…lacklustre?. For me it definitely is and I always get excited for a new launch, but not this time for some reason.

Yes, but to be fair there are currently not so much to be hyped for. I guess they will have a few really good reveals in the Switch 2 direct.

Right now there is a copy of the Switch with more power and Mario Kart 9 I guess.

Good thing it's the weekend. After that we'll be on the doorstep of a new era ... Probably 🤔

@Norion I don't see GCN happening on NSO just yet. Nintendo seems content with re-releasing GCN, Wii & 3DS titles through ports, remasters and remakes. I could see DS definitely happening on NSO though (I don't see it being announced at the upcoming presentation however).
