With Pokémon XD having been shadow dropped today, and both Super Mario Sunshine and Pokémon Colosseum set to come out later this year, we've almost gone through the first batch of games promised for the service since the Switch 2 launched last year. But what comes next? Well, here are my thoughts on the matter. But first, some notes:

1. I'm excluding Pikmin 1 & 2, Metroid Prime, Tales of Symphonia, Metroid Prime, the Baten Kaitos duology, and Paper Mario The Thousand-Year Door, purely because they are already available on the Switch in some way (and perfectly playable on Switch 2), so adding them to the service would be kinda pointless.
2. Any licensed games must be within reason. While Quest for Camelot on the Game Boy service made no sense, having GoldenEye 007 on the N64 service did, mainly because of that game's popularity during that era.

So, as for the games:

-Billy Hatcher & the Giant Egg | I'm including Sega games, because Sega brought out some great games for the system. And this is a game I feel needs more attention.
-Custom Robo Battle Revolution | Speaking of games that needs more attention, we have this. This was one of the only game in the Custom Robo series that made it out of Japan, and I've been hoping it gets a comeback in some way.
-Lost Kingdoms I and II | Before FromSoftware made people rage over games like Dark Souls, they created a pair of card based action RPGs. Might be fun to see them.
-Mario Kart Double Dash | I mean, why not? The other NSO services have their consoles' respective Mario Kart on the roster.
-Mario Party 4 through 7 | Okay, admittedly, I'm wishing for these in place of a friend.
-Mario Power Tennis | Not only is it a fun entry in the Mario Tennis subseries, but that opening cutscene is hilarious.
-Metroid Prime 2: Echoes | I'm aware that this is considered the weakest of the original Prime trilogy, but excluding it wouldn't feel right.
-Nintendo Puzzle Collection | Well, they've put Japanese games on these services before. And really, you don't need to know Japanese to know how to play Dr. Mario, Puzzle League (Panel de Pon), and Yoshi's Cookie.
-Skies of Arcadia Legends | A fantastic RPG, that's been cut off from a lot of people due to some crazy online prices. Having it here could remedy that.
-Sonic Adventure 2 Battle | Often seen as the definitive version of the game, it would be great to see this game back.
-Star Fox Adventures | For many, this was seen as the beginning of Rare's downfall (they were bought by Microsoft not too long after this game came out), and it was never meant to be a Star Fox game at all, but it's still worth experiencing. Even if it's just for Krystal.
-Star Fox Assault | Not every Star Fox game needs to rehash the original game's plot, and this proves it.

A lot of this might be wishful thinking, but we'll just have to wait and see.
