Today's Nintendo Direct has concluded, and it was a packed showcase, giving Switch 2 owners plenty to look forward to this holiday season and into early 2026.
Mario's 40th Anniversary kicked off the Direct in style, with confirmation of a Super Mario Galaxy bundle heading to Switch, and a new Mario Tennis game arriving in February 2026. Other headline reveals included a December release date for Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, DLC for Donkey Kong Bananza, a new Pokémon farming sim-style title, and Virtual Boy is coming back in the form of a new Switch 2 accessory (yes, really!).
