Gamescom 2025 is formally underway, and a handful of crew NL are out on the show flooring, gobbling up as many of the video games as we can get our palms on.
Naturally, the Nintendo sales space has captured much of our consideration, with a notably stacked line-up including the likes of Kirby Air Riders, Elden Ring and Hollow Knight: Silksong, all playable on Switch 2.
It’s fairly the sight, and we’ve been snapping up pics left, proper and centre so you can get a style of the Big N’s presence on the show flooring. So, here’s a gallery of some of the Nintendo sights we’ve seen so far, beginning with a handful of huge ol’ sport banners and backdrops:
All seems to be good, but aren’t those cubicles a little… secluded? For those eager to play in entrance of a crowd, it seems that Nintendo has you coated, too. This massive space seems to be primed and prepared for some Mario Kart World tournaments, though nothing was taking place when we initially walked through. Looks intense though, proper?
Naturally, there’s some My Nintendo Store illustration on the show flooring too, with a handful of shows showcasing some of the most interesting Nintendo merch out there. Do you think we could get away with submitting that Master Sword under ‘checked baggage’?
There are a lot of other video games outside the Nintendo sales space that will be making their method to Switch and Switch 2, of course. Here’s a handful of snaps from the ones we’ve noticed so far:
There will be much, much more to see over the coming days, and you should keep an eye out on our Nintendo Life website and YouTube channel for our hands-on ideas soon enough. But gosh, is not it good to see Nintendo at an in-person occasion again?
