Nintendo ask 3rd-party devs to remaster Rayman 3, Splinter Cell & Driver, while internal team tied up with Switch 2

As a seasoned gamer with decades of gaming under my belt, I must admit that the prospect of remasters for the Nintendo Switch is a tantalizing one. With my thumbs worn smooth from countless hours spent on various controllers and my eyesight faltering from late-night marathons, I’ve grown to appreciate the nostalgia factor in gaming.


The Nintendo Switch has proven to be incredibly popular, having sold more than 140 million units worldwide, making it the third highest-selling video game console in history.

Of course, speculations about the upcoming version of the Switch naturally stir excitement. Many of these rumors prove unfounded, but since Nintendo themselves are talking about the console now, it seems we won’t have to wait much longer – likely just a few more years.

Of course, it’s thrilling, but prior to the launch of the Switch 2, fans are going to require some games to entertain them. However, since Nintendo’s in-house developers are busy working on the next generation, who will be creating games for the original Switch in the meantime?

Nintendo courting 3rd-party studios

A source alleges that Nintendo, deeply engaged with the development of Switch 2, is encouraging external game developers to produce updated versions (remasters) of specific games. This move aims to provide gamers with enjoyable content while they wait for the new console. Here are the remastered titles he specifically cited:

He also mentions that two other games are being worked on by Ubisoft, but these haven’t been named yet.

It’s possible that Brazil isn’t the biggest tipster in the industry, but he was the one who correctly forecasted the date of the Nintendo Direct a few months ago, and he also hinted at the internal delay of the Switch 2 before anyone else. These predictions were later verified by more prominent figures.

We’re rather sure about the data he provides, but remember, it’s always wise to view any leaked information with a healthy dose of skepticism.

Are you looking forward to the possibility of remakes keeping us entertained until the Switch 2 arrives on the scene? And what are your thoughts on when we might expect the arrival of the next-generation Nintendo console, known for its groundbreaking innovation?
