Nintendo

The company that gave the world Mario, Link, and Samus is the undisputed champ of the modern console war, with nearly 150 million Switches sold since 2017. But now, speculation is rampant about the company's next console, rumored to launch in 2025.

Games not made by Nintendo are dominating the Nintendo Switch’s latest eshop best-seller list. Even on the indie-stuffed Switch, there are usually one or two Nintendo games high on the list. Right now, the highest is Mario Kart 8 in the 14th spot. It helps that Nintendo has had few major releases of late.

The Nintendo Direct that was postponed last week will instead take place tomorrow, September 13, at 6pm ET, Nintendo said this morning. It’ll run 35 minutes and cover both Switch and 3DS games, the company said. Nintendo added that the Switch’s online service will launch on September 18.
