At the E3 gaming convention on Tuesday, Nintendo announced several new games for its hit console, the Nintendo Switch, including a new Pokemon game.

The company said the Pokemon game would not be ready "for a year or more," but it hopes to continue the hype from the augmented reality game, "Pokemon Go," which has had over 500 million downloads and continues to be ranked among the highest grossing apps in Apple's App Store.

Nintendo owns approximately a 30% stake in The Pokemon Company and roughly a 3% stake in Niantic, the creator of Pokemon Go.

During the presentation, Nintendo showed off trailers for the sequel to "Xenoblade Chronicles" and a new version of the popular handheld game, "Kirby," due out in 2018.

Nintendo also showed off several other new games, such as a Yoshi-centric game for the Switch, a console which has been a hit with consumers, selling more than 2.7 million units in its first month.

It unveiled Zelda-themed weapons and outfits for Ubisoft's "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim" for the Switch. The company also showed off the first downloadable expansion for the hit Zelda: Breadth of the Wild game, a game which has become the best reviewed game of all-time, selling more than 1 copy for every Switch unit sold.
