Topic: Next Nintendo Direct?

@Grumblevolcano, No More Heroes III has had an eShop page for months now, at least on the US shop.

@RR529 For the UK eshop it went up with Xenoblade a few days ago.

I love how close attention you pay to all this. It's absolutely barmy, and drives me barmy just reading it, yet love it I do.

I expect we will get No More Heroes 3 news and (probably) Bayonetta 3 news.

Indie World confirmed but not 18th, it's the 17th.

Finally! Although I'm (im)patiently waiting for the full Nintendo Direct, but nevertheless I'll welcome some nice indie news with pleasure. Hoping to see great titles.

So does that make people think the rumours were correct or that it’s just another wishful thinking hope. I don’t think there’ll be a general Direct next week.

@FragRed People seem to be taking it as rumour confirmation. I'm taking it as rumour deconfirmation because the Indie World rumour was off by a day.

DESCEND WITH ME INTO CHAOS!!! An indie direct has been announced before a general direct! DESCEND INTO CHAOS AND BURN THE INDIE DIRECT!!!!

@Grumblevolcano Yep that pretty much proves it false. Anyone could have come up with this week for an indie Direct but getting the actual day right is what makes it breaks said rumours. And more often than not, they just get lucky with the week but nothing else.

Welp so much for the rumor. I'm definitely looking forward to this. Hoping for Sports Story to be dated, and Axiom Verge 2 or Silksong as well would be amazing. Last December's had some great titles (OddWorld, Talos Principle, Survivalists), so I'm hopeful for another good showing.

@DannyBoi
Sometimes Indie games are better than typical AAA games.
I have some of Switch / PS4 indie games in physical release.

That's a surprise! But hopefully there's still some fun surprises in there.

Waaaahoooooo.

Choooo chooooo

The 18th was just a guess date they placed. They basically said it would be this week so their guess was right for the most part. If we want to get nitpicky, it’ll be the 18th in many areas of the world, including Japan, so yeah.

Cool, so that rumour was true. Real Direct either next Tuesday or Thursday!

A Hollow Knight: Silksong release date and another Indie-Nintendo colab could be present. Not getting too hyped but it has some definite potential.

I don't think the fact they got the wrong day means anything. They got the right week and the fact it would be Indie World before regular Direct.

I think that means the rumour is correct.

Yeah, I'm disappointed that there's an indie event before the real deal, but if this does indeed signal that the rumour is true (and with it being the 18th in Japan, you can't really say even the date was wrong), I'll take it.

I made an account to thank everyone here for making more pleasant the uncertainty of general Direct void.

Cheers and keep rolling the fun!
