And let the speculation begin…
(Smash on the next switch???)
Carmina__Gadelica
Give me an IMOQ remaster plz
KazzieMono
Sick.

Do Bandai Namco want to get acquired by Nintendo eventually?
GhoulZiggy
New kind of souls game in the switch would be amazing.
EarthDragon2189
S for Smash.
Jasen_The_Wizard
Okay, so these are the new official Smash devs
Edit: Not even “the new” lmao, it just straight up is them, the website lists Ultimate and Smash 4 as past titles. I’m surprised they helped with ARMS but I guess that makes sense
eatdogs49
Dark Souls 2&3 plz
krstphr
COOL!
bwburke94
The S is probably for Smash.
ArcusFlux
Can’t wait for Nintendo’s next console!!
---Scootaluigi---
Pac-Man World 4 anyone?
Dingusu
this would also probably make Xenosaga remasters that fit in with existing Xenoblade lore easier to coordinate with MonolithSoft as well
CHAINMAILLEKID
I’m going to speculate that the timing is because the Mario Kart booster pass has completed.
Apparently they’ve been pretty involved in Mario Kart for a while.

Would love to see a remastered collection of the first 3 Digimon World games with QoL updates and streamlined features
Dunno when or if it’ll even happen, but still would love to see remasters of those games one day
Edit:
Apparently there was a 4th one on GCN that I didn’t remember or know about – guess that one would be fine too
Also forgot about Rumble Arena and that one TCG game, too…

Xenosaga fans, the road home calls for us.
locoghoul
Switch Pro confirmed for 2026
Cosmic-Ninja
Pokken Tournament 2 announcements?
warjoke
That’s really interesting. Let’s see what they can cobble up for the upcoming new system.
LazyDro1d
Xenosaga ports when?
QwertMuenster
Big stretch, but the Ace Combat PS2 trilogy would be pretty awesome on Switch. Maybe throw ACX in there too :^ )

Please Bandai Namco, give use Baten Kaitos 3
Rieiid
Hopefully this means we’ll get more BN ports on the next Switch, like all of the other Dark Souls games they published and such.
Soulkyoko
.hack
Xenosaga
Decent digimon game
Cmon, give me something to gnaw on!
WilsonKh
Switch S2 it is
-Narme-
Make Power Rangers games again!
adorbhypers
So, one of them is clearly going to be the side arm for Monolithsoft with the Xeno Expanded Universe.

Really hope this means more Mario Baseball and Pokemon Snap!
