Earlier this month, Nicalis tweeted out an interesting tidbit about the announcement of Ikaruga on Nintendo Switch. Nicalis confirmed that they actually offered Nintendo to reveal the game in a Direct. However, Nicalis says that Nintendo of America “wasn’t interested”. The tweet that Nicalis made can be seen down below, so feel free to check it out.
We offered. @NintendoAmerica wasn't interested. Sorry!

Oh I gotta get this title if only to support Treasure.
I heard Treasure was up to something, but was it this or something more? Last game they made was gaist crusher all the way back in 2014 for 3ds.
Didn’t they work on Sin & Punishment 2 on Wii too tho?

Which means Nintendo has big announcments for the next direct
or they just don’t understand their audience.
Personally this game is a space shooter and it’s not so different from others space shooter
I love Ninty, I really do but they need to do more shit like giving games like this a shot in directs and being more open to things
Critically acclaimed Gamecube classic just ain’t as interesting as Sushi Striker. You made a gooooood call Reggie.
Who cares about Ikaruga on a Direct? It’s a shooter already released on everything, it’s good that Nintendo does not waste time with a title with minor appeal.
That where they made their first mistake, they asked NoA.
I don’t know what the game is, nor interested enough to find out, but you never ask NoA for anything, better chances on asking from NoE.
