Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase 2025: Every New Game Coming To Switch And Switch 2

Nintendo just dropped a fresh Partner Showcase, spotlighting third-party titles heading to both the Switch and the Switch 2 and while there was no sign of Metroid or Pikmin, there’s plenty to get excited about, especially for those still waiting for reasons to justify their Switch 2 purchase.

You can check it out on YouTube below:

Let’s be real: since its launch in June with just Mario Kart World and the bizarrely bland The Welcome Tour, the Switch 2 hasn’t exactly had a stacked library. Things are finally heating up, though. Donkey Kong Bonanza recently landed with a bang, and Pokémon Legends: Z-A is on track to drop October 16. Classic Zelda titles like Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom have also been given a next-gen glow-up, with Tears holding its place as the highest rated game of 2025 so far.
