Nintendo Treehouse 3rd April 2025 - All Switch 2 Gameplay Reveals

Watching it live made me so much more hyped for June 5th.
Gonna watch today again.

Pretty exciting first round of treehouse reveals. I’m hoping we see some more third party games in the near future for comparison with how other consoles and handhelds are running them.

DK looked great, Metroid looked double great. Those are the 2 games I’m interested in.

I loved it and cannot wait for todays. I wonder what they will showcase us today.

Oooh I need to watch these! No new secret game being revealed at treehouse this time then? Codename S.T.E.A.M 2? No?

I jest but I would have actually been so hyped if they announced that!

Great footages, actually. The show was pretty good, even though the most exciting part was the comment section lol. Tons of Metroid and DK goodness, and the Gamecube games look great.

Today I'm sooo curious to see what the From Software game is about...

Not a word about the Treehouse chat spam? Bring the prices down?

@Beetoe Why? What's the point?

It's not going to happen and thanks to Mango Mussolini putting a Tarrif on basically every country but Russia things will probably get more expensive going forward.

@Dee123 Well, because it's news. I saw TH on YT yesterday and was quite surprised to see the proportion of the storm in the chat. I wasn't expecting to see a chat with what I would estimate were at least 70% of messages asking for a price reduction. I can imagine that Nintendo may have taken tariffs into account in calculating the pricing.

Honestly the gameplay looked so good!!

Until the Treehouse show, I was starting to feel less confident about Switch 2 but after seeing the gameplay and how everything looks, I’m sold!

As you were!

Mario kart world & Donkey Kong Bananza
Nintendo believes in generations 😊

Couldn’t help myself any team blue out there 🤣

Metroid and donkey kong will be my first Switch 2 games, can’t wait!

@Lone_Beagle yes correct but our wages haven’t gone up in line with that so effectively it’s more expensive than you outlined.

@Beetoe They made an article about it yesterday. No need to mention it here.

@Late Fair enough, missed that one, thanks

I don't suppose anyone has found out if Switch 1 games on Switch 2 will always run in docked mode? A bunch of games are slower/blurrier with less on screen when in handheld mode, will that still be true for this games on Switch 2?

None of you noticed the same type of lag that the Switch has in DK when it was moving locations? And, the shadows not being fully visible at about 10 meters away from the cliff until DK got near to about 5 meters away? And the jagged edges, lack of AA in certain parts. This looks a lot like Switch 1 but with improved graphics. I hope they fix that but I doubt it.

Game does look fun though.

About prices, if Nintendo wants to increase prices for USA, okay, due to the tariff, but why increase for us who are in Canada or elsewhere?

The zelda video improvements are so minimal compared to the 3 guys overreaction. I have breathe of the wild on Wii U so didn't buy the switch version, and still won't buy it even after this

The roundup is much appreciated! My day was crazy yesterday between work, errands, and visiting my grandma since it was her birthday (97 years young!), so I didn't manage to watch any of the Treehouse footage. I won't watch the entire stream, but I will fit in many of the segments I'm interested in over the next few days lol.

Happy belated birthday to your grandma—that’s amazing, 97 years young! She probably remembers when Nintendo first started! 😄
