The Nintendo Switch 2 Direct is tomorrow, and we expect it to detail everything you need to know about the upcoming console, what games are releasing with it, and much more тАФ but if that isnтАЩt enough for you, Nintendo has also announced two follow-up Treehouse streams that will show more in-depth gameplay of those upcoming games.
On both April 3 and April 4, Nintendo will air a Nintendo Treehouse: Live stream at 7 AM PT/10 AM ET. We donтАЩt know what games will be shown yet (thatтАЩs a surprise for tomorrow), but the broadcast on April 3 will run for four hours, while the one on April 4 will last for three hours. ThatтАЩs a lot of gameplay, so make sure to tune in to see exactly what the Switch 2 is capable of.
You can safely expect Mario Kart 9 to be shown off, and probably Metroid Prime 4 too. Anything beyond that is just a guess, but itтАЩs likely the Treehouse streams will focus specifically on games designed for the Nintendo Switch 2. WeтАЩll probably see something that shows off the so-called тАЬmouse-conтАЭ functionality but donтАЩt expect as many technical demos as with the first Nintendo Switch. The technology is familiar at this point, so thereтАЩs not much left to be discovered unless Nintendo drops something truly unexpected tomorrow.
The streams will most likely be hype-fests, if weтАЩre being honest. Nintendo wants to drum up excitement for a new console release, so the streams will probably show games that will get fans excited to preorder. However, we donтАЩt expect the streams to focus too heavily on cross-generational releases, so we arenтАЩt likely going to see too much in the way of Pokemon: Z-A or any of the titles shown in last weeksтАЩ Direct.
