As for what to expect in this stream, it's basically anyone's guess. However, be warned that there will be no Switch 2 informationin this Direct whatsoever. It is going to be entirely focused on OG Switch games, and since there are no upcoming first-party Switch games with firm release dates right now, there's a lot of mystery around this stream. I would not be surprised at all to see Metroidpop up here in one form or another, whether it's a bigger reveal for the upcoming Metroid Prime 4or another remaster of an older Metroidgame to whet your whistle until Prime 4comes out.
