Nintendo reveals during the presentation of its latest financial report the roadmap of console releases for this course and beyond.
Nintendo has released this Thursday its latest financial report for the last quarter of the last fiscal year ended March 31 (Q4 FY2020), a document that also reflects the plan for video game releases for Nintendo Switch in 2020 and beyond; only by citing publicly confirmed titles.
The company, which already accounts for more than 55.77 million units sold worldwide with a projection of 19 million more units during the current fiscal year, considers that the machine is "barely in the middle" of its life cycle in the market; at its equator.
The coronavirus crisis (COVID-19) may affect the release date of all Nintendo Switch video games, as the company itself warned in the Nintendo Direct Mini last March. However, the dates indicated below are those estimated by Nintendo today, but are subject to change. In fact, there are some titles like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Bayonetta 3, and Metroid Prime 4 that are still undated.
The sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has no release date, no definitive name; platform only: Nintendo Switch
Regarding an eventual Nintendo Direct (digital format recurring for eight years to announce news related to their consoles) in the coming weeks or months, we do not know if Nintendo has planned a new edition of the event for the dates surrounding what would have been already canceled E3 2020, which was to be held at COVID-19.
