Nintendo wants diverse games on Switch 2 but stays quiet on GTA 6

Nintendo plans to maintain a broad selection of games for Switch 2, targeting players with different interests and ages. Nintendo of America president Devon Pritchard discussed the approach in an interview with Variety.

She cited the role-playing game Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave and the cozy title Pokémon Pokopia as examples. Nintendo also presents the console as a platform for different kinds of gaming experiences, from major traditional releases to more accessible entertainment.

Nintendo names examples of its lineup

Pritchard said Nintendo has historically viewed its audience as people from ages 5 to 95. She said the company wants players with different interests to find something on the platform.

The report also mentions The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake as a game for longtime players and Nintendo Switch Sports Resort as a more casual example.

GTA 6 has no Switch 2 announcement

Asked whether Grand Theft Auto 6 could come to Switch 2, Pritchard did not provide any Nintendo plans. She said the matter would be a conversation for Take-Two and Rockstar, adding that she had nothing to announce at this time.

The report also cites a former GTA 6 developer who argued that bringing the game to Switch 2 would not make sense. The game’s future on Nintendo’s console remains unknown.
