• Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is still alive — and it’s looking good. Nintendo unveiled a new trailer for the game that serves as an introduction of sorts, showcasing the alien world you’ll be exploring along with Samus’ various abilities, including new psychic powers that work both in combat and in puzzle solving. While no specific release date was announced, the game is due out in 2025 for the Switch.
• Beyond has been in development for a quite a while. It was originally announced in 2017 shortly after the launch of the original Nintendo Switch, but in early 2019, Nintendo announced that it was rebooting the game’s development and bringing on Retro Studios to make it.

• Nintendo Direct: classic edition.
• Before we get into all of that Switch 2 business, Nintendo has a 30 minute presentation covering games for its current hardware. You can watch it right here at 10AM ET.
• While the games industry patiently waits for the proper reveal of the Switch 2 on April 2nd, Nintendo isn’t quite done with its current console. The company announced that it will be holding a Nintendo Direct on March 27th at 10AM ET, which will feature “around 30 minutes” of news about upcoming Switch games. Notably, Nintendo says that “there will be no updates about Nintendo Switch 2 during this presentation.”
• With the launch of Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition last week, there aren’t a lot of first-party games currently on the Switch calendar. But there are still some notable titles in the works including the long-in-development Metroid Prime 4: Beyond and Pokémon Legends: Z-A. It’s also possible we’ll see a few more remasters for the Switch, like the much-rumored Switch version of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.

Given that backwards compatibility has been confirmed for the Switch 2, whatever Nintendo does announce tomorrow will also be good news for its upcoming platform.
