13 Ports, Remasters, And Remakes We Want Before The Switch 2

Fans have been waiting for Nintendo to launch a Switch 2 for years now. It was reportedly due out sometime in 2024 before getting delayed to next year. And while the company recently hinted that the Switch successor will be revealed later this year, it could still be a longtime before it actually comes out. What games can Nintendo release in the meantime to keep players’ existing Switches from gathering too much dust?

It’s no secret the Mario maker has been relying on lots of ports, remasters, and remakes in recent years to pad its lineup. Improved versions of Wii U exclusives have become some of the best games on Switch, from Mario Kart 8 Deluxe to Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Inside Story. Last year, fans were even treated to a remake of the SNES’s Super Mario RPG, while Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door from the GameCube is out later this month.

Nintendo’s back catalog runs deep, though, and there’s still plenty of untapped potential to keep fans busy until the Switch 2 arrives in 2025. Here are all of the beloved classics and cult hits we’d still love to see come to Switch before its sunset. We won’t get all of them, but I’d be shocked if a few didn’t pop up on Nintendo’s release calendar heading into the 2024 holiday season.
