Both of these games will have download codes that users can redeem once the console is online. Nintendo is hoping to create an affordable bundle that can find its way into more homes before their fall lineup fully launches.
With Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu/Eevee!, and Super Mario Party, gamers will be wanting to look for an easy way to jump into the Switch’s library. The console already has heavy hitting exclusives with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Super Mario Odyssey, and Xenoblade Chronicles 2. Not to mention the slew of third-party releases/ports as well as some impressive indie titles.
Nintendo has also stated that the full fall lineup has yet to be unveiled. It has been rumored that Retro Studios is working on a Star Fox racing game. A Nintendo Direct is expected to release soon in order to detail the upcoming titles.
