Discussion What smaller games do you want to see on Switch thru 2025(and possibly beyond?)

[MonHunterORB]

Aside from the usual Prime 2/3, F-Zero GX HD and Zelda WW/TP remaster speculation/desire...what would you like to see?

-Legend of Zelda Shrine Maker(Think Mario Maker but for shrines)
-Captain Toad Treasure Trackers 2
-Super Smash Picross
-2D Zelda(Either brand new top down or a Zelda 2 full remake)
-KId Icarus Uprising HD/Deluxe
-Mysterious Murasame Castle reboot
-Mario Party Classic Collection(Upscaled MP 4-7 plus online play. Superstars 2 is also acceptable)
-Pikmin Spinoff of some sort. Maybe a farming/life sim of sorts? Maybe a whole commercial spaceliner ship of people crashes and no one has knowledge to repair the ship(which ends up utterly annhilated at some point to hammer it in) so they decide to settle on the planet and you build up a settlement.

-Legend of Zelda Shrine Maker(Think Mario Maker but for shrines)

I feel like this one wouldn't be positioned as a smaller game

-2D Zelda(Either brand new top down or a Zelda 2 full remake)

This one is definitely not a smaller game

I would like to see something Mii. A spiritual successor to Tomodachi Life and Miitopia would be cool. But given they ported Miitopia already to Switch, it will likely not happen.

A new Kid Icarus game would be awesome!

please look forward to rhythm heaven shuffle coming to nintendo switch on july 25 2024

Like... first party? A port of Sin and Punishment 2 and Pokemon Picross.

Hotel Dusk and the sequel as well.

 

[Pillydillsy]

Windwaker and TP ports, Metroid remasters, throw in a rhythm heaven and the switch will (with the tragic exclusion of DK not withstanding) have a perfect lineup

Something like a Pushmo/Stretchmo type puzzle game. Or a Dillon's Rolling Western, BoxBoy!, something along those lines.

I know there's a lot of quality third party titles out there but Nintendo and their umbrella haven't been as eager to put out those experimental, smaller games like with the 3DS. Miss that

• A western release for Buddy Mission Bond;
• A Nintendo's take on survival horror that isn't Luigi's Mansion;
• A Zelda spin off that is a Zelda campaign (would be huge tho);
• an indie developer crossover with Mario AND Metroid;
• Famicom Detective Club sequel;
• A new Golden Sun or Trilogy Remake;
• Sin & Punishment 3;
• Star Fox 99 based on Command.

 

[BlackthornOrion]

Rhythm Heaven, Boxboy (either a new game or a collection of the 3DS games), Pushmo collection

Probably pushing the definition of "smaller", but a new 2D/topdown Zelda would also be pretty rad right about now

If it counts, I'd like to see Diddy Kong Racing added to Switch Online.

From first party? Depends on what kind of studios Nintendo could work with. Because in house studios must have moved on.

Wayforward did AW 1+2, they could do the DS game too. They can revive the Card Hero IP as well.
Arika had Endless Ocean. They can have them a create new fighting IP? They are a multi genre studio, they can do a lot for Nintendo including side scrollers.
Arc System Works is a big studio and a huge opportunity for Nintendo. They need to bring, not only the first two Hotel Dusk games but a sequel too.
Mages can do another Famicom Detective Club game? Maybe some Science Adventure crossover included?
Chunsoft has already done a lot of Pokémon Fushigi no Dungeon games, how about another Nintendo IP to have a MD title? Wario? Kirby?
Eighting could take over Kirby spinoff duties after Vanpool. I wanna see what kind of Kirby Fighters sequel they could come up with.
