Yeah, four Metroids in one direct has much more of a, “wishlist,” vibe than a, “prediction,” vibe…

Metroid Prime 4 will be the last game shown and will release simultaneously on whatever the next Nintendo console is just like BOTW.
Hoping for new DK, Xenoblade X or Xenosega, Mario Kart 9 and more in the new Pokemon game

There is no way we’re getting Xenoblade this soon after Future Redeemed, far less *two* games. Monolith has historically needed ~2 years between projects (aside from XC1>XCX) and has never double-dropped two Xenoblade games in one year, so I wouldn’t expect anything ’till next year.
MK9 would likely be a launch title for the Switch successor, assuming they don’t just port 8 (again). DS/GC online and an Odyssey sequel are probably similar stories.
I would temper expectations for big new first-party games in general, it’s likely Nintendo’s output will consist heavily of ports, remasters and remakes that they’ve had banked for a rainy day this close to the end of the console’s life cycle.
