"The show will be about 30 minutes long, but don't get ahead of yourself hoping to see the next Mario or Smash Bros. This is a partner showcase, which means that you can expect a lot of third-party games, rather than stuff in the works at Nintendo itself. The stream will begin at 6 a.m. Pacific / 9 a.m. Eastern."
"So what should we expect if not Nintendo first-party games? With its additional power over the original Switch, the Switch 2 is able to run a pretty large spread of big-budget third-party games. Companies like Capcom are putting some of their big marquee games like Resident Evil Requiem and Pragmata on the device so, in theory, nothing's really off the table if a dev is willing to make some concessions to get PS5 and Xbox games on the thing."
Nintendo will hold a Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase livestream on Feb 5 at 6 a.m. PT / 9 a.m. ET lasting roughly 30 minutes. The showcase will focus on third-party games for Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 rather than first-party Nintendo titles. Switch 2's additional power allows ports of many big-budget third-party games from PS5 and Xbox when developers make concessions. Capcom is bringing Resident Evil Requiem and Pragmata to the device, demonstrating third-party support. Expectations include potential Switch 2 ports or upgrades like Overwatch 2 and hopes for new titles such as The Duskbloods.
