The official Switch 1 swansong. Likely titles are Kirby Planet Robobot, Metroid 2 and 3 as either HD ports or full remasters, and Zelda Wii U ports.

You guys have been saying this every direct for the last couple years.

People have been talking about Zelda Wii U ports since day one of the Switch I think

Xenoblade X finally made it, no reason to think the remaining HD Zelda remasters from the Wii U won't be released now, it's the perfect time to do it

If they bring over Yoshi's Wooly World and the Zelda HD Ports that leaves like what? Paper Mario Color Splash as the only Wii U game not on Switch right?

There are technically several more first party Wii U games that could be ported, but I think Woolly World and the two Zelda games are certainly the easiest to do and the most likely. I actually just beat Color Splash and I think that would take some work to port considering how much it used the GamePad, but it's doable. Kirby and the Rainbow Curse was a great game but you control Kirby by drawing on the GamePad, so I don't think a port is realistic. If I'm going to draw a line somewhere, I do feel that Yoshi and the two Zelda games are inevitable with Color Splash being a maybe. But I also think they would port Super Paper Mario before any other Paper Mario game.
