Ok so life got in the way and I still have the morning ballots to tally. I will have the results sometime in the next ~12 hours.

And to the one person who predicted Octopath Traveler 2..... YOU NAILED IT!!!!!
 
Imagine putting your most confident pick on the first slot...
  1. Terranigma remake, NOT using HD2D
  2. Pikmin 4 reveal
  3. New Rayman game
  4. DK is back... in Strikers, and by DK I mean Diddy Kong
  5. New Mega Man game
  6. FF Pixel Remasters coming to Switch
  7. Prime HD
  8. NSO update, GB for regular NSO, GBA for EP
  9. New Fire Emblem mainline game
  10. Breath of the Wild 2 title drop
Tiebreaker: 41 games
K... I got #2, #4, #9 and #10. I feel risking Pikmin 4 on #2 should give me like 2 million points but I'll take my 19 points anyway.
 
1. Switch Sports Golf Update
2. New IP, previously unknown, published by Nintendo
3. It Takes Two
4. Metroid Prime HD Remake/Remaster
5. Advance Wars 1+2 shown with new release date
6. Zelda WW/TP Switch ports
7. New Fire Emblem announcement
8. Splatoon 3 update announcement
9. Xenoblade 3 DLC announcement
10. Mario Strikers update announcement

Tie breaker: 23 games shown

*Hopefully #2 is specific enough. It means either a collaboration with a 3rd party on a Switch exclusive (like The Stretchers or Good Job! or Snipperclips) or something developed by Nintendo themselves or one of their satellite studios (like Box Boy or Pushmo).
Let's see:
1. 10 points!
2. Zero points :(
3. 8 points!
4. No points :(
5. If it wasn't for the Pikmin 4 announcement I'd be genuinely salty about no news. But at least we know it hasn't been cancelled.
6. And another miss!
7. 4 points!
8. Did they actually announce an update or just the Splatfest?
9. 2 points! If the Expansion counts as DLC.
10. 1 point!

So altogether that makes 25 points if the Xenoblade prediction counts.
Probably not close enough to bother counting the number of games shown.
