15 Video Games Everyone Expected To See At E3 2018

3. Animal Crossing For Switch

There was a lot of confidence among Nintendo fans that a new Animal Crossing game for the Switch would finally be unveiled at E3, but just like Metroid Prime 4, it was nowhere to be seen (though at least we know that Metroid Prime 4 definitely exists!).

The last mainline Animal Crossing game, the 3DS' Animal Crossing: New Leaf, was released in most of the world back in 2013, so fans have certainly been long overdue a new title, especially one that takes full advantage of the Switch's nifty functionality.

Clearly the new Pokemon and Super Smash Bros. titles are priorities for Nintendo right now, but there's really no reason for them to sleep much longer on such a commercial sure thing. Announce it before the end of the year Nintendo, for the love of God.
