Topic: Next Nintendo Direct?

@Grumblevolcano Huh, I was assuming the Pokemon Presents was this year's September direct, but I guess it might not be.

This must be the one where they're revealing the Switch Pro. Wild Card!

@Euler Yeah! And Miyamoto comes onto the stage to announce Kirby Star allies 2, featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry series.

@link3710 it seen Nintendo schedule is returing to normal, so a fall Nintendo Direct in septembre is very likely to happen.

check out the Pokémon Presents focused in information regarding Pokémon Legend Arceus and the remakes of Diamond e Pearl.

i hope soon

September 2021 probably for Nintendo Direct again.

Wednesday September 1st, it's happening, probably, maybe.

Probably not until early next year.

I think the schedule through January is already pretty well stacked.

@Magician Doubt it. They always have a September direct to show off more of the games coming out within October, November, and December, as well as some new games coming the next year, and some games we already know about, but not enough details.

@Magician @VoidofLight I think there'll be a September general Direct as normal and function like the September 2019 Direct.

At this point in 2019 we already knew on the Nintendo published front:

• August 30th - Astral Chain
• September 13th - Daemon X Machina
• September 20th - Link's Awakening
• September 27th - DQXIS
• October 18th - Ring Fit Adventure
• October 31st - Luigi's Mansion 3
• November 5th - Mario & Sonic 2020
• November 15th - Pokemon Sword/Shield
• March 20th 2020 - Animal Crossing New Horizons

We also already knew a load of 3rd party titles not published by Nintendo so overall Nintendo could technically have waited until January 2020 for a Direct with things like TMS#FE Encore being announced in a social media post but they did a September general Direct which was heavily reminding people of already announced games coming soon.

We have Nintendo's entire release schedule until February, so I'm not really expecting a direct.

Assuming the rumoured Donkey Kong game is coming early next year (March or April) I would hope we'd see a trailer for it.

I don't think it's a reasonable expectation for Nintendo to announce another game for release between now and January, but there are enough 3rd party games without dates and 1st party games where more info could be shared to justify a direct. But who knows with Nintendo!!

Check out playasia.
Oftenly there are some games announced without Nintendo Direct.

I'm assuming the direct will heavily lean on content updates. Probably another New Pokemon Snap update, that promised Animal Crossing content, the final Smash character, Hyrule Warriors final dlc, Mario Tennis Aces content update, that's 5 pieces of news in that alone.

@link3710 And that’s all before we even start looking at games revealed during E3. I don’t know how much more can be shown for something like Advance Wars 1 & 2 as they’re remakes but I’m sure there’s still something they can showcase in other titles.

The direct is probably going to be about content updates, a few new games, news on titles for the rest of this year, and a bit of news on next year’s titles.

Is there any indication that Pokemon Generation 9 could be introduced soon?

@Kirby_EU Absolutely not this year at least. Next year is a crapshoot as always.

Maybe on February 2022.
Man... 3 years passing was so fast.
