@NintendoByNature I mean... Toad Circuit was already in a Direct in February. It wouldn't make any sense for them to do it again.
Also, the Strikers demo is not Direct material either, considering the time at which it came out. If Strikers was a July game, I could see the demo announcement in a Direct. But it's too soon.

Persona 3 Reload (PC)
Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy (PC)
Well, E3 is mid June, so if they're going to do their direct around the usual time, that's 3 weeks....
So, I didn't think anyone was expecting it before then? As much as I'm sure we'd all love it anytime sooner
The Toad Circuit tweet was reference to how the twitter account has now gone through all 8 wave 1 tracks so if they were to continue the current pattern, wave 2 would be announced next week. That would be a possibility if Nintendo chose to ditch the June general Direct approach but if there is a June general Direct they'd likely save the wave 2 announcement for the Direct. Would be really ironic though if it was announced next week given on May 31st, Chocobo GP Season 2 begins.
The Mario Strikers news suggests there won't be a general Direct next week because the demo could've easily been a shadow drop announcement. Pokemon usually goes first so Pokemon Presents would be more likely for next week anyway.
Oh there is a rumor that the batman arkham games are coming to switch that august. I hope this is true, I never played them, but enjoying their soundtracks, and I would like to experience them finally!
@Helios26 I don’t see any reason why either Arkham Asylum or Arkham City can’t come to Switch considering they released originally on PS3/Xbox 360. Arkham Knight I don’t know about, but never say never after the kind of ports we’ve had.

Though from the last Nintendo Direct, back in February, which was super awesome BTW, especially the moment when Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series was shown, I freaked out with hype, because I am a huge Klonoa fan, with Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil being one of my all-time favorite PS2 games, it means a lot to me

For the next Nintendo Direct, hopefully sometime in the future, what do you hope to see?
Probably not gonna happen anytime soon, but I would love to see the next 3D Mario game. I fully completed Super Mario Odyssey a few years ago, and Bowser's Fury last year, so I'm all ready for the next one! I'd also love to see more boards for Mario Party Superstars, particularly the ones from Mario Party 4 thru 8. The next wave of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe's DLC is at least easy to expect, I'd be happy with those too. Oh and the next F-Zero game would be amazing, but knowing Nintendo, that's not really gonna happen.
Most of it is a pipe dream on my part - I do want to at least see a good amount of enticing Nintendo-made games!
For me Arkham Knight is definitely possible. When I compare it with The Witcher 3 (which I play currently), you even have some performance benefits:
In Arkham Knight you have:
-static daytime/weather instead of dynamic ones, and for this reason less dynamic physics
-lower population density due to evacuation instead of vibrant cities/villages
I'm no developer and I can be corrected anytime, but this is my opinion
I have a feeling we will get a port of Wind Waker HD in the next direct.
And I would love some more boards in Super Mario Party.
Grezzo's output has been on the lower end of the scale for the past couple of years - I'm erring on the side of expecting another Zelda remake from them, rather than Wind Waker.
You guys had me at blood and semen.
What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?
@gcunit It would neat if we got the Zelda Wii U remasters and regarding Grezzo, we got something like an Ever Oasis port. The Switch was such a gigantic success that pretty much every 3DS game released in 2017 or later got largely overlooked except Pokemon Ultra Sun/Moon.
