According to Persona leaker MbKKssTBhz5, Persona 6 will be appearing on Nintendo’s next console. No further details were provided other than it’s happening – apparently.

Atlus hasn’t announced the RPG but it’s only a matter of when, not if. The company has been various entries in the series since Persona 5’s original launch, and considering how long ago that was – 2016 originally and 2017 in the west – there’s no question that it’s deep in development.

If you’ve been waiting to find out when Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door and Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD will be releasing on Switch, the good news is that it may not be much longer. X user Pyoro, who has a habit of leaking Nintendo announcements such as content from Nintendo Directs, now indicates that news about both titles will be shared on MAR10 Day. Presumably that will include updated launch timing.

MAR10 Day, of course, is March 10. That’s Nintendo’s way of recognizing the Super Mario franchise. Most MAR10 Days come and go without much news, with the company focusing on things like bundles and sales. However, we did get the release date for the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass Wave 4 last year, so release dates aren’t out of the question.

Two Atlus games could end up on the Switch successor as it’s claimed that both Persona 3 Reload and Metaphor: ReFantazio are coming to the system.

Persona 3 Reload has been a particularly curious case as Atlus has been supporting Switch more than ever before with the series. It took some time, but Persona 5 Royal, Persona 4 Golden, and even Persona 3 Portable are all available. You can also throw in Persona 5 Strikers and Persona 5 Tactica.

Original: Switch 2 speculation won’t stop until Nintendo makes an official announcement, and the rumor hill is heating up again with Ai Shark claiming that the console will launch in September 2024.

The news is tucked away in a press release about another matter, which is that Altec Lansing is the first licensee of Ai Shark’s gaming software. Furthermore, Ai Shark will be bringing back the GameShark brand in a different way. As old-school gamers will remember, GameShark is a series of cheat code devices. But now with Ai Shark, it’s AI-enhanced software that is designed to aid “individuals in improving their gameplay over time.”
