The gaming community is buzzing with anticipation for any news about the Nintendo Switch 2. With Nintendo's silence on its major franchises, gamers are eager to learn about the company's plans for the coming years. While expectations for the Switch 2 include new entries in popular series like 3D Mario, The Legend of Zelda, and Pokémon, there's uncertainty about the system's capabilities. Ambitious third-party titles like Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater were previously thought to be beyond the Switch's reach.

He suggested that the game could see a day-and-date release, and that many third-party developers are either planning or considering ports for the system.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater Rumored for Switch 2
The possibility of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater being available on the Nintendo Switch 2 could significantly enhance the system's launch appeal. As a current-gen game, with no plans for release on PS4 or Xbox One, the game's footage suggests it will match the quality of recent blockbuster titles like Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. If the Nintendo Switch 2 can handle this game and other popular upcoming third-party titles, it could position itself as a formidable competitor to the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series systems, despite Nintendo's history of being a generation behind in terms of hardware.
The potential arrival of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater on the Nintendo Switch 2 could echo the "miracle port" legacy of its predecessor. Notable ports like Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice and Nier: Automata on the original Switch impressed many gamers and are considered some of the best ports available. These rumors suggest that the Switch 2 could have a lineup of surprising releases to ensure a strong launch.
