Topic: Next Nintendo Direct?

Don't think so. I think the coronavirus is the cause of delayed Nintendo Direct.

Or there could be a mini direct.

We wait all of these months just for a mini-Direct. Lol. Geez that would be depressing.

@Dezzy From what I've played so far and seen from the music/movie/event galleries ingame (the number of question marks), the DLC seems smaller so maybe the initial trailer's enough.

How do they announce a mini direct. Is it something like they announce it on the day and it happens like six hours later?

@DannyBoi
Chills.
No need to feel anxious if the Direct still not happen.
While waiting the Direct, we can focus on playing the other games.

I'm actually starting to get a little antsy myself

@NintendoByNature Yeah, I am too.

It could be Nintendo don't want to do as many directs. You know, to rely more on actaul announcements.

I know I keep saying about the creative director for DMC saying watch out for february 13th. But something must be happening today. It might be a direct, it might be a game announcement.

nintendo japan youtube channel just updated their direct playlist

@xpownz Does that usually happen before a direct comes?

Mini Directs just get dropped with zero warning sometimes (like the Burning Chibi-Robo one). It causes chaos.

Anyways, Youtube listing's being updated are quite common before directs, yes. Means we'll likely have one within the next 2-3 weeks. In this case, last year's February direct was privated (which isn't unusual and it'll be unprivated later) suggesting it'll come within the month of February again this year and they don't want people watching the wrong one.

I'm still on the April train though.

There could be a direct tonight;).

@DannyBoi Not so sure. Also, nintendo japan privated both 14.02.2019 and 14.02.2014 directs from their playlist.

@xpownz Sooo, a mini Direct dropping tomorrow and making old ones private to stop people watching wrong ones? It’s interesting timing as it would be a Friday.

@FragRed The Directs were 13.02.2019 and 13.02.2014 respectively for outside Japan so if they are going the drop a Direct Mini strategy it would be tonight.

Personally, I'm expecting that it's preparation for an Animal Crossing Direct next week (the playlist includes single game Directs).

I just want to hear xeno1hd piano again. That's all I want from a direct

I'd kinda like to see a Nintendo Direct soon as at the very least I want a release date for Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition. I'm not in a huge hurry though; my backlog is meaty enough as it is, plus there are plenty of retail Switch games I want to grab.

Maybe we need some psychic to tell us Nintendo’s plans. Is Miss Cleo still available?
