Rumors swirl around a potential June Nintendo Direct, coinciding with the Switch 2's first anniversary. Fans anticipate announcements on highly rumored titles like The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake and a second Star Fox game. The event's timing near Summer Game Fest revives the spirit of E3.
Nintendo's new "Choose Your Game" Switch 2 bundle, launching in early June for $499.99, includes the console and one of three blockbuster games (Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Bananza, or Pokémon Pokopia), saving buyers $20 to $30. This deal beats the upcoming September 1 price rise to $499.99 and provides a discounted game. It's an opportune time to buy, especially with the Ocarina of Time remake rumored for later this year.
Nintendo aims to counterbalance the Switch 2's recent price hike with a strong lineup of games, including Star Fox and Splatoon Raiders this summer, alongside rumoured titles like The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake. With Pokémon Pokopia and Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream already performing well, the company hopes to enhance the console's ownership value. High-profile exclusives like FromSoftware's The Duskbloods further bolster the roster.
Nintendo has confirmed a global price hike for the Switch 2, increasing costs by $50 in the US, $50 in Canada, and €30 in Europe. Despite this, the company assures a higher adoption rate than its predecessor and promises multiple unannounced Switch 2 games for later this year. The move follows an 8% drop in Nintendo's share price since the announcement.
