Topic: Next Nintendo Direct?

@Snatcher Generally, when they drop directs like this, I usually just catch the news here, and usually not bother watching.

@jump That isn’t the real 3pm GMT. In the event of these occasions, we have prepared replica lookalikes that are close enough to the real thing.

@VoidofLight I know, Its why I hate it whey they just drop out of no were.

Today's the last chance for a general Direct announcement this week.

@Grumblevolcano you forgot the caveat of unless it isn't. ;p

@Grumblevolcano I'm convinced we won't have one before Metroid Dread launches...so maybe we'll have one on the 14th or 21st of October?

6 hours to go. Today is the day.

People seem to think this is some kinda indication of a Direct happening this week. Still don’t think it’s happening.

@VoidofLight
Maybe, but hardware to support software would usually be part of a larger announcement. Even if it does just end up being a GB controller for GB titles on NSO

It does seems at the least we're getting NSO news before Friday, makes sense as September 25th will be when NSO subscriptions from people who have been subscribed the whole time but used the 1 week trial in the beginning lapses if not renewed (September 18th 2018 NSO launch + 1 week free trial -> September 25th). Might be part of a general Direct but might just be a standalone video where the system, launch lineup, release date and controllers are revealed.

We could get anything this week. Or nothing. My money is in the something happening.

@NintendoByNature Or it could be a Direct that's not even a Direct, plot twist. It turned out that all long that Rosamund Pike faked her murder to frame Ben Affleck. Good one Nintendo, you really got me!

Looks like no Direct this week, NoA's first tweet of the day is more Metroid Dread info:

I think it’s safe to say Nintendo aren’t doing anything this month. It’s all about Metroid.

@jump I mean, you're not wrong. And neither was i. No direct but a direct in the form of a Twitter drop for dread. Hype responsibly, says Oatmeal Dome

@NintendoByNature But it's not 3pm in the UK, it was a plot twist!

It's happening!

It even says 3pm on the tweet!

Well there you go. Sweet.

Holy crap!!! I guess I owe some of you an apology.
