We weren’t expecting Nintendo to drop a full-blown Direct a week before the Switch 2 Direct, nor were we expecting a bunch of 2026 games—or Virtual Game Cards. This Nintendo Direct had plenty of surprises, along with updates on things we already knew about.
It’s hard to be mad when we got a new Tomodachi Life, Rhythm Heaven, Metroid Prime 4 footage, and everything else below. We’ve listed everything that appeared in the Direct in order, including release dates where available.
Let’s just say June and July are going to be busy.
