The Nintendo Direct E3 2019 stream was home to a lot of games coming to the Nintendo Switch.
We have a direct sequel to Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
We also have new gameplay for Luigi's Mansion 3.
E3 2019 briefings have come to an end with Nintendo being the last one to make their announcements. Even though we were expecting a Switch 2 to be teased, Nintendo did no such thing focusing on three things during the stream – games, games and more games for the Nintendo Switch. After the announcement, the Nintendo Switch has become an even more attractive proposition for those looking for a handheld gaming console. More than 30 announcements were made by Nintendo. Let's break down the important announcements.
Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Sequel
A sequel of one of the best Nintendo Switch games is in the works. That’s literally what the trailer says. There is no information of a launch date or even a launch window. But the fact that a sequel to one of the best Switch games is in the works is good enough news.
The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt – Complete Edition
The world of the Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is vast, open, and filled with varied quests for you to complete. There are a few of us here at Digit that haven't completed the game and it's not for lack of trying. Those of you looking to take the adventures of Gerald with you on the go can now do so.
