The new Star Fox game is described as a classic on-rails shooter with high-quality visuals and online multiplayer, NateTheHate said. The insider also claimed that several other titles are planned for summer 2026, including Splatoon Raiders, Rhythm Heaven Groove, Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave, and a Nintendo Switch Sports title, either new or a Switch 2 Edition. Website VGC corroborated NateTheHate's claims about the Star Fox game and other comments, adding weight to the rumors.
For the second half of 2026, NateTheHate claimed that FromSoftware's The Duskbloods is aiming for a late 2026 release, and a remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is planned. Capcom is reportedly planning to bring Devil May Cry 5 to Switch 2, according to the same insider. Looking further ahead, NateTheHate claimed a new 3D Super Mario game is planned for 2027.
I've been told it's a classic style Star Fox game, I've been told the visuals are supposed to be very good, very satisfying, and I've heard it does have online multiplayer.
YouTuber Malo932 claimed Nintendo is planning a Super Metroid remake, a new Wario Land for 2027, and a second larger-scale Star Fox adventure game for 2027. Another YouTuber, Poro Michele, alleged receiving an anonymous message detailing several of NateTheHate's claims, plus Mario Kart World DLC for 2027 and a new Metroid game from MercurySteam. Nintendo has not officially confirmed any of these rumored titles or their release dates.
It remains unclear when the company will hold its next Direct, which could reveal these games. The Star Fox game's status as a full remake or remaster is also unconfirmed, as is whether rumored Switch 2 exclusives like The Duskbloods will remain exclusive to the platform. The claims from NateTheHate and other insiders paint a picture of a busy release schedule for Nintendo, but until official announcements are made, these details should be treated as speculation.
