And again, Advance Wars, while a "niche" IP, is still waiting on a release date and I doubt its fans want to wait indefinitely. But what's left of the announced first-party games for Switch in 2022 doesn't have the feel of a finished list I suspect there's at least one unannounced title yet unrevealed, probably one of Nintendo's "core" IPs, even if simply a remake/remaster. I'm not saying you're necessarily wrong Luigi's Mansion 3 headlining Nintendo's first-party Switch lineup for the Christmas season a few years ago is a precedent, after all, and while a very good game it had nowhere near the "evergreen" clout of a mainstream Mario, Zelda, or even Animal Crossing (New Horizons' delay until the next year was what left LM 3 pretty much alone as their "big" offering for that quarter). 4th quarters traditionally center around the biggest and most popular first-party IPs, which in turn move consoles (this is looking at it from a corporate angle). And honestly, DLC in any form doesn't count.

Pokémon is a huge IP but A) its appeal is far from universal and B) the Switch frankly already has an abundance of games from that franchise already. Bayonetta and Splatoon! both have their passionate fans, but neither have the universal appeal to qualify as system-selling top-of-the-list releases.

Oh yeah, and 's way past time for Advance Wars: Reboot Camp to get a firm and final release date. With BotW 2 not coming till next year and Metroid Prime 4 in eternal limbo, there frankly isn't anything that qualifies as a true tentpole first-party release for the Christmas season for 2022 yet. Hopefully this isn't merely just a hint about the release date of the next MK8 Deluxe DLC we could also really use a full-on Direct for Nintendo's first-party games for the 3rd and 4th Quarters. There were similar stories during the reveal of the Super Smash Bros. This isn't the first time a banner advert in Japan has indicated Nintendo DLC is on the horizon.

qpRtTBiUdp- PushDustIn🔜BitSummit July 9, 2022 I think we should see a reveal sooner than later. 7-11 is advertising the course pack (note that it says you double the number of courses in Japanese, nothing about wave 2). It's led to theories that an announcement could potentially be just around the corner. Up in the top-right though, it's mentioned how this ad should no longer be displayed to the public by 17th July 2022.
