Remasters
This current generation has brought with it an absolute ton of remasters. From games that released at the end of last generation, like GTA V and Saints Row IV, to the more distant remasters and remakes of Gears of War and Ratchet and Clank respectively. Remasters and remakes are a great way for players to experience games they may have missed out on, without having to go back to games that feel outdated. With the Wii U having a bunch of great games that only a small install base got to enjoy, it’s likely Nintendo may remaster some of these for quick, major titles.
After all, the likes of Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, and Splatoon were all well-received and would be staple purchases for those picking up the new system. You can expect to see gameplay trailers for any remasters or remakes shown to really drive home why Wii U owners should go ahead and pick these games up again. Considering Splatoon and Mario Kart could both be spotted in the Switch’s preview trailer, you can bet your bottom dollar we’ll at least hear more about these during the event on Thursday evening.
