When will we see new announcements and details about the latest Switch games? After a visible postponement, the next Nintendo Direct would be broadcast very soon.
There has never been so much cacophony surrounding a Nintendo Direct. Various trusted insiders have consistently argued that an event will take place in February. During this presentation, Big N was expected to announce details about Switch games from “partners.” This can mean anything and everything, although we may be more inclined towards big titles rather than independent software, which are generally highlighted by the “Indie Word” format. But to see. Is it really likely that this meeting will take place this month? We find out in a serious new leak.
Is the February 2024 Nintendo Direct still relevant?
The rumor of a Nintendo Direct in February 2024 has been persistent for a few weeks. A media company had heard that the broadcast could take place between February 12th and 15th, while Jeff Grubb was more cautious. The journalist and insider didn’t have a specific date other than the simple time frame of mid-February. No smoke without fire? Apparently so, anyway. This Nintendo Direct was supposed to appear this Thursday, February 15, 2024, but according to Grubb, the Japanese manufacturer backed out. The reason ? After increasingly urgent rumors about porting Xbox exclusives to PS5 and Switch, the company would have preferred to give up its place and postpone its presentation.
“I know no one wants to hear this, but just like when the Queen died, it’s true: I heard earlier this week that they were discussing postponing Nintendo Direct due to the planned Xbox update » Jeff Grubb said. A slight delay? If Pyoro_X is to be believed, yes. But who is it? A mysterious person who has rarely, if ever, been wrong about Nintendo, most notably revealing the existence of Mario vs. Donkey Kong.
So we can listen to what the user has to say and according to him the new Nintendo Direct is coming between February 19 and 23, 2024. And that’s not all. When asked by a netizen, he said he was not enthusiastic about this future speech. Disappointing announcements? Perhaps one thing you would expect: the release date of Penny’s big breakaway. An ultra-colorful 3D platformer ideal for Nintendo’s hybrid console, due out this year.
