The 2026 Nintendo leaks just keep coming. While not nearly as high-profile as the Zelda Ocarina of Time remake or even the rumored upcoming Star Fox game, it looks like Switch 2 will be getting some Marvel superhero action soon too.

While we are still waiting to see what Nintendo has next for the Switch 2 Game Cube library, the April 2026 NES Nintendo Classics updates and the companion trailer have arrived. And these ones didn’t leak ahead of time, like everything else Nintendo has on is release schedule this year.

Nintendo is continuing to update its popular Switch 2 GameCube library and now that we have moved into 2026 it’s time to take an updated look at the lineup.

When is the next major Switch 2 game announcement going to be? Well, apparently very soon. Rumors and relatively reliable leakers have been divulging Nintendo’s 2026 release plans for a few weeks now, but it looks like what might very possibly be the most reliable of them all has just doubled down saying the first of these big announcements will happen this month.

In case you somehow missed it, there has been a massive leak over at Nintendo. Somebody is stealing all of the Mushroom Kingdom’s biggest secrets and leaking them all over the internet. As exciting as some of this leaked information is, I almost hope it’s all fake and Nintendo completely surprises everyone over the next few months.

Alongside a host of ongoing Switch game deals below, Including Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2, Animal Crossing: New Horizons – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition, and more, wrestling fans can also score a deep deal on the Switch 2 edition of WWE 2K25. Amazon is now offering WWE 2K25 – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition down at $14.99 with free shipping for Prime members or in orders over $35. This one launched at $70, but it more recently has been selling for $20 at Amazon and is now back at the lowest price we have tracked there.
Alongside the theatrical release of the new Super Mario Galaxy Movie (and a gigantic list of major Switch 2 game leaks), we wanted to touch down quickly to let folks know about the new “fun in-game events and a limited time discount” on the Super Mario Run Game on mobile.

Nintendo has a serious leak problem right now, as we have already discussed. It seems as though just about all of its major 2026 releases have already surfaced online, leaving very little to the imagination when it comes to the upcoming summer and holiday Switch 2 release schedule. There are couple of other titles that have been mentioned among the leaks and, while they don’t come from sources quite as reliable as some of the others, if they do end up coming to fruition we could be in for a new Wario Land game and a potential new classic Metroid remake this year.

Nintendo has been making headlines as of late after what appeared to be its entire 2026 launch schedule leaked online (details here). However, it does look as though one thing didn’t slip through the warp pipes as it has just announced a new limited-time Super Mario Galaxy Switch 2 console bundle offer. Starting next week, you’ll be able to buy a Switch 2 and Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 at just about all major retailers with a $20 discount. That’s not much, but it is something, and if you already own a Switch 2 you can land a deal on Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 right now anyway: Woot has the proper U.S. boxed version down at $58.99 right now and the international version down at $54.99 Prime shipped. The International copy works on U.S. consoles, but you might bump into some issues if there was an DLC for the game in question (updates appear to work just fine).
Nintendo has now officially announced a new Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 Nintendo Switch 2 console bundle. I guess not everything it had planned to announce this year already leaked (but a whole bunch of it seems like it has).

It seems Nintendo’s entire 2026 launch plans have been leaked all over the net at this point. It has probably formed a new (Re)search and Destroy 1 team to crack down on the Nabbit stealing its secrets, but it’s probably too late to save any major surprises for this year, and we aren’t done yet.

Update 4/3: We have now updated this post with some additional leaked details on some potential upcoming Switch 2 releases.
As we have already reported, there have been some major Nintendo leaks surfacing across the interwebs over the last week or so, much of which coming from folks with solid track records for this sort of thing. While these sorts of early details and rumors were very much expected last year with the launch of the Switch 2, it appears as though much of the Nintendo 2026 launch plans have leaked already.

A brand new special edition, or rather themed, Monopoly set is now up to celebrate the (record-breaking) theatrical release of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. Much like we have seen for years with these crossover real-estate tycoon boards, this one shakes up the usual formula with a series of themed rules, pieces, and features based on Mario’s latest adventure through the stars.

In case you missed it this morning, we spotted a few new Mario Bros. 40th anniversary collectible game cases and an upcoming FREE poster offer at Target. Best Buy is now handing out a FREE SteelBook-style case adorned with Mario 40th anniversary art that carries a series of Switch and Switch 2 cartridges with purchase of “Mario and friends” games. You can find all of the details on that and the upcoming Target offer right here, but we also wanted to highlight this week’s best Switch game deals including Kirby and the Forgotten Land down at $44.99 shipped via Target right now. Deals on this one have largely dried up as of late and if you’re looking for a copy now’s your shot. You’ll also find a host of ongoing Switch game deals waiting down below.
The Super Mario Bros. 40th Anniversary celebrations continue after the release of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie in theaters this week as a few new collectibles and goodies have surfaced at retail (or will be very soon). Both Best Buy and Target have new Super Mario Bros. 40th anniversary collectibles up for grabs, including a pair of game cases (they are sort of like a SteelBook case that holds multiple Switch and Switch 2 cartridges).

While the leaks and rumors regarding upcoming Nintendo plans have slowed to some degree compared to last year’s Switch 2 launch cycle, there have been some seriously exciting tidbits floating around as of late. Not the least of which, some fairly high-profile Nintendo Insiders have already claimed we are in for a complete remake of one of the most celebrated Nintendo titles of all-time: The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time. And now it looks as though there’s good reason to believe there will also be a special edition Zelda Ocarina of Time Switch 2 Console.

The new Super Mario Galaxy Movie is hitting theaters today! I will likely be making my way to a local screening this weekend, but for collectors or those who would rather skip the lines and overpriced popcorn, pre-orders for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Limited Edition SteelBook Blu-ray + Digital are now live alongside some upcoming listings for the The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Collectible Tin edition.

There have been some notable releases for Switch 2 thus far, but nothing overly remarkable at this point. We have had some notable first-party releases with the new Mario Tennis game and the Super Mario Bros. Wonder expansion, not to mention the surprisingly well-received Pokémon Pokopia. But Nintendo is going to need some heavy hitters to keep the hype rolling this year – will we finally get a new 3D Mario experience? Doesn’t sound like it at this point, but rumor has it a massive Zelda remake is inbound alongside a new Star Fox game and much sooner than later at that.

Nintendo unleashed the final trailer for the upcoming Super Mario Galaxy Movie earlier this month, but the reveals ahead of the April 1 release aren’t quite done yet – it has now confirmed that Fox McCloud from StarFox is in the film.

We are taking quick break from the now live Amazon 2026 Big Spring Sale to discuss some Switch news. In a world rife with tariffs, or at least the aftermath of them, and with the cost of gaming skyrocketing in recent years, Nintendo might have just announced that is bringing the cost of new Switch 2 games down…sort of.
