Yesterday's Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase included a lot of great-looking games, but it arguably raised more questions than answers about what the remainder of Switch 2's first year on the market is going to look like. According to Kit Ellis, Nintendo of America's former director of social media marketing and original content, it's very out of character for the publisher to not have release dates for its slate locked down by this point in the year.
"It's just not passing the sniff test for me, and it all seems a little suspicious," Ellis says in a new episode of the Kit & Krysta podcast. "Having worked there, it gives me certain feelings that things are not going as smoothly as maybe Nintendo would want. I think there's a lot of uncertainty. I think there's a lot of concern. And I think, frankly, they're trying to put on a brave face and carry on as if everything's okay, while at the same time really trying to get a handle on what's happening with these games."
