Jan - Tokyo Mirage (conf)
Well this comes out soon, is exclusive and is their major release for the month

Feb - The Dark Crystal (conf)
After some delays the Dark Crystal game will launch digital and physical next month, this is nintendos focus for better or worse for Feb

Mar - Animal Crossing (conf)
Delayed to 3/20 this is no argument their big title for Smarch

That leaves us with a huge calendar and a bunch of facts and rumors

Ok your job predict what one major title fits in where using the below info or your own!
Apri -
May -
June -
July -
August -
September -
October -
November -
December -

Mario: Nintendo does at least 1-2 releases per year. Its safe to assume with no level/moon dlc ever coming to Odyssey they have been at work for 2 years on a new Mario. They did release that brand new render a few months ago in a tweet.
Rumor: Camelot has a game for 2020, seeing as Golden Sun would be something they'd announce and tease for the future you have to assume its the easy answer here Mario Golf

Kirby: Haven't had a title in 2 years. They love using the same engine to squish out a few side games historically

DK: The mystery here, they havent given him a ton of love the last ten years (Retros super busy atm) unless you really love Mario Vs DK.

Metroid: Metroid Prime 4 has like a 5% chance of 2020, it was completely scrapped in January 2019 and started over by Retro. Even worse for its odds is Retro is still actively hiring and rehiring old employees.

Metroid Prime Trilogy has long been rumored, is it real?

MercurySteam rumored 2d metroid popped up last year, is this real?

Botw 2: its either this year or next year, I'd bet this year since this project is supposed to mirror Majoras Mask in theme, reusing of assets, and dev time

Star Fox: Does nintendo work with ubisoft and let them do a proper star fox? Probably not?

Pokemon: Detective Pikachu 1+2 Collection is slated for this year, as is Pokemon Home and....Sleep. They only did 3rd versions of the main games when patches weren't available. They could churn out a sequel but that also would be surprising, how about a patented spinoff? (There has been rumor that Spike Chunsoft is making a new Shiren esque game and they do make the mystery dungeons)

Mother 3: LOL next

FZero: its the anniversary year? LOL next

Kid Icarus Uprising: I dont think this has ever been rumored just wishlisted, but moving the 3DS game to switch would have the same effect as a Wiiu port, but they'd have to retool the games graphics. Hard to believe Sakurai would have time and all the remake/port teams were busy in 2019

Wario: We havent seen a wario land/world in ages and I think that continues here

Splatoon 3: This is a game most people figure is in development. 2s features ended and this seems likely. Personally I bet Splatoon 3 does a drastic shakeup whenever it comes out

WiiU Ports: Emily Rogers is not a great leaker but shes kinda stating the obvious, none of us will be shocked to see these. We have 1 in January already, and last years wii u ports sold real well

XenoBlade Remastered is anytime from May onwward

Bravely Default 2 - recently announced is confirmed Worldwide this year

I'd kill for a real Mario Golf game by Camelot again, Toadstool Tour on the GC was a phenomenal game.

My guess for Metroid Prime Trilogy is that Nintendo has just been sitting on it and will continue to do so until MP4 has a pretty concrete release window, then toss out MPT a few months ahead of time to keep the hype train rolling. Sadly that's probably 2021

Well I'm not gonna guess months, but I'm gonna guess Bayonetta 3, Monolith's new fantasy IP, a Mario Sports title, a new Kirby game, a new Tomodachi Life game, Breath of the Wild 2, Pikmin 4, a Pokemon spin-off, a Mario RPG, and totally out of left field Splatoon 3 or spin-off.

This is probably the best case semi-realistic scenario, and even then I'd be surprised given the complete dearth of news about it over the past two years or so

The Outer Worlds is also confirmed for Switch in 2020, I'm sure Nintendo will try to push that as a major release since it's not THAT long after the PS4/Xbone releases.
