After several months of leaks and rumors, Nintendo finally confirmed the name of the next Mario film – The Super Mario Galaxy Movie – and today it will debut the very first trailer. While we got a quick snippet in Title Announcement trailer as part of the Mario 40th anniversary bonanza, the celebration continues this morning as Nintendo is set to host a dedicated Nintendo Direct just Mario’s next appearance on the silver screen.

Nintendo has just taken to official X account to tease some new Legend of Zelda LEGO action. We have already got the epic Great Deku Tree 2-in-1 set previously, weighing in at 2,500 pieces, but it looks like there’s a whole lot more to come. 

Nintendo just officially announced the next Nintendo Direct, but it might not be the one you are waiting for one. Or…maybe it is because it will host the world premiere of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie official trailer.

The official Nintendo Black Friday 2025 deals have now been announced! Every year at this time, Nintendo issues a press release detailing the official Nintendo Black Friday plans, featuring loads of game deals, console bundles and more, and this year it is not playing around – it is going to be offering a straight $50 price drop on the Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle. Head below for all of the details. 

Nintendo finally revealed the December launch date for the long awaited Metroid Prime 4: Beyond after nearly a year of waiting, and it just debuted a brand new trailer for the game you can check out below. 

Update 1/15: The Animal Crossing: New Horizons Nintendo Switch 2 Edition and the free 3.0 content update for all players are available now

Update: Pre-orders are now live on the Animal Crossing: New Horizons – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition via Best Buy at $64.99. 

Nintendo has just official revealed Animal Crossing: New Horizons – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition with a series of upgraded features specifically for the new console, as well as a FREE update coming to Animal Crossing: New Horizons for Nintendo Switch. 

It is Mario’s 40th anniversary this year and we have already detailed all of the new releases Nintendo is set to drop in celebration – there’s even a Talking Flower collectible from Super Mario Bros. Wonder. But Nintendo isn’t done yet, as it just announced that Mario will be soaring the skies through the streets of NYC this Thanksgiving in the Macy’s Day Parade. 

Nintendo Direct goes live again this morning, and it’s all about the new Kirby Air Riders. As was officially announced earlier this week, Nintendo will livestream its next Direct presentation very soon on its official channels to give us another particularly lengthy look at the new Kirby racing title. 

Let’s take an updated look at all of the games confirmed for the Switch 2 GameCube library. Nintendo debuted the Nintendo Classics GameCube collection the same day Switch 2 launched this past summer with three titles and has steadily been updating it alongside the rest of the Switch Online retro libraries. 

Just as we previously predicted (and hoped for) Nintendo has now officially announced that Luigi’s Mansion is the next game coming to the GameCube Nintendo Classics library for Switch 2. We knew it was coming at some point, and what better time than Halloween? 

After giving us a complete detailed look at the new Kirby Air Riders, including the November 11, 2025 release date, Nintendo has just taken to the official Nintendo Today! App and X to announce the details on the next Direct – another dedicated Kirby Air Riders show ahead of launch. 

Ahead of the official Switch 2 launch, rumors suggested we could be seeing some official dual-screen action on Nintendo’s new console by way of a secondary USB-C port. We already know there are some not so perfect workarounds for using  second display on Switch 2, even your iPad, but the real question is, and has been for some time, when is Nintendo bringing DS to Nintendo Classics and how is it going to deal with the second display setup on those games? A new patent suggests something might already be on the works. 

Nintendo has now revealed a new set of Super Nintendo games landing on Nintendo Classics for Switch Online members. Last we checked in the Game Boy Advance lineup got a nice little update, but today we are turning our attention back to the iconic SNES with three new releases for the first October 2025 Games Update. 

Update: The new Virtual Boy hardware is now available for purchase directly from Nintendo for Switch Online members. “This product can be purchased by those who have a paid Nintendo Switch Online membership. To play games in the Virtual Boy – Nintendo Classics, you will need an active Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership. The Nintendo Switch Lite is not compatible.”

During today’s lengthy Nintendo Direct, we did not get any updates on the Switch Online GameCube library, but Nintendo did officially announce Virtual Boy! It is ready to add an entirely new console to its Nintendo Classics collection in the form of the ultra-retro Virtual Boy library alongside an actual Virtual Boy peripheral you stick your Switch or Switch 2 inside of. Details below. 

Update 8/13: This post has been updated with the official release date for Chibi-Robo!

The My Nintendo Store Switch 2 pre-order invites have gone out and that means the first chance to score one of the new wireless GameCube controllers has too, but the actual Switch Online GameCube library won’t launch until June 5 when the Switch 2 does. Nintendo announced that it would be bringing GameCube to its classics library for Switch Online + Expansion Pack members alongside the Switch 2, but there are a few things you need to know about it and we’ll have a look at all of the games we know are coming to the service thus far down below.
