Yeah, it’s gonna be a big presentation. New Mario and Zelda games, revivals of previously dead series like Wario Land, big third-party reveals… just about everything is on the table here.
Add this to a 95-minute Nintendo Treehouse: Live afterwards, and well, this is probably going to be the biggest Nintendo event of the year. The moment that shows us all what the Switch 2 has in store, and what the company’s prospects are likely to be in late 2026 and early 2027.
So, figure out when it’ll happen in your region via the table below:
