game news A remake of an iconic Super Nintendo game announced during the Direct? Fans dream of it and hope for it
Will the next Nintendo Direct mark the return of an iconic Super Nintendo game?
And Nintendo Direct is taking place today and several matches are eagerly awaited during this conference. Especially one Mario game is considered by observers knowledgeable, which will delight many fans…
Pikmin, Persona, Professor Layton, Splatoon… a busy Nintendo Direct
What can you definitely expect from this Nintendo Direct? We know we will see Pikmin 4, with a likely focus on co-op of the next flagship Switch title. Scheduled for July, we also expect to see new maps of the game. This presentation is meant to be an opportunity to discover something new Trailers for Everybody 1-2 Switch, for Persona 5 Tactica and for Professor Layton and the New Steam World … It’s also about a Trailer for a Metroid game. Competitive gaming fans should be pleased to hear that we’ll see it Splatoon 3 The Tower of Order DLC, for a short-term exit. A new wave of circuits for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and DLC for Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope should also be part of it. THE indie games will also have a nice place in the presentation, just like new Ports of old Nintendo games to Switch Online emulators. We’re also expecting a new Mario game… which will likely be the traditional one Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games dedicated to Paris 2024. Finally, we could certainly have some hardware announcements new amiibo for Zelda TOTK (especially Ganondorf and Zelda).
Super Mario RPG finally back?
But the rumor circulated for a few days. A game we didn’t really expect to see on modern Nintendo consoles, and yet it is one really cool ! A game that only has one official episodebut left an important legacy, as we find elements of it in Paper Mario, Mario & Luigietc. Yes, we anticipate that we might see it a new episode (or remake) of Super Mario RPG! Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars was released on Super Nintendo and ported to the Wii virtual console in 1996, but never received a sequel or even a remake. One of the main reasons is that this is not the case not 100% Nintendo production as it is developed by Square
Granted, it’s Yoshi, and some might imagine a new Yoshi Island being announced, for example, but that’s not the case not just any Yoshi. This GIF is straight out of the Super Mario RPG. To support the theory of a return of the Super Mario RPG, the following must first be said It’s one of the SNES’s most imp ortant games, sorely absent from the catalogue
Book The Legend of Zelda: Tears of Kingdom
Chrono Trigger, Metroid Prime 4… let’s dream a little
On the side of persistent rumours, another RPG from Square Enix often comes back, as leaker Zippo had announced one Chrono Trigger Remake. It’s a possibility we’ve been hearing about a lot for a while, but he says we’ll see this remake at this presentation. Also, we could see one Metroid Prime 4 trailer (finally!) or a possible Metroid Prime 2 Remastered. Some are also considering porting Outer Wilds to Nintendo Switch, which is still doing well but has never had an official release date. Fans are also already hoping for an announcement from DLC for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, but nothing is less certain considering that the game was released very recently. Finally we could have done it Announcing more amiibos, including Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. And then of course we could have surprises!
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is available on Nintendo Switch.
