6 things we want to see from a Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake
Posted on 1 month ago by Ethan in Features, Switch 2 | 0 comments
In a recent podcast, NateTheHate revealed that he thinks a remake of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is coming to Switch 2 this holiday season. And though we do have to report on that as a news site, that doesn’t mean it’s necessarily going to come to fruition – that being said, speculation doesn’t hurt anyone!
Previously, Ocarina of Time received a Nintendo 3DS version that added new features. In addition to updated graphics, this remaster also added extra item slots, gyro aiming for the slingshot and bow, a boss gauntlet, and tutorials. Of course, we’d like to see all of those features retained in a hypothetical Nintendo Switch 2 Ocarina of Time remake, but why stop there? Here are several more additions and changes we’d love to see. We’re going to be mentioning some story spoilers here and there, so keep that in mind before you continue.

Nintendo needs to bring back Animal Crossing’s weirdness
Posted on 1 month ago by Ethan in Features, Switch 2 | 0 comments
Today, we’re talking about how the next Animal Crossing could shake up its characters and art style and return to its roots by taking cues from the original GameCube title.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons sold nearly 50 million copies on Nintendo Switch. It’s safe to say the game’s release in March 2020 became a cultural phenomenon of sorts, and it’s elevated the series as a whole to become one of Nintendo’s most popular franchises. That said, despite this popularity, we haven’t seen or heard anything much about Animal Crossing other than the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition for New Horizons – indeed, it takes a very long time to develop an all-new entry. Given how popular New Horizons was on Nintendo Switch, it’s safe to assume a sequel is in development for Nintendo Switch 2. It’s just a matter of when we’ll see it announced.
Every game rumored for Nintendo Switch 2 in 2026
Posted on 1 month ago by Ethan in Features, Switch 2 | 0 comments
Right now, we’re in a bit of a quiet stretch on Switch 2 – which isn’t to say we aren’t getting any games – but at the time of writing, the only titles we’ve got with confirmed release dates from Nintendo are Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream, Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, and Rhythm Heaven Groove. And two of those are Switch 1 games. Splatoon Raiders and Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave still lack concrete release dates, and we currently don’t have any new title releasing in June that we know of, either.
That said, there are plenty of speculation floating around here and there, and today we’re compiling every rumored game (thanks to BrTrueV for the idea on this one) that we’ve heard is coming to Nintendo Switch 2 – plus the sources of each claim. Of course, just because something is rumored doesn’t mean it’s going to happen, but it never hurts to speculate… as long as we keep our expectations in check.
