Nintendo has confirmed this afternoon that a Nintendo Direct presentation will be happening on Friday. Details are scarce on what it contains, but let’s hope for some surprise announcements.
“Tune in on Friday, September 12th at 15:00 CEST (14:00 BST) for a new Nintendo Direct, featuring roughly 60 minutes of information on upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch games.”
Thanks to Cian for sending in the news tip.

That’s not the official Nintendo account tweeting that…
It was on the Nintendo Today app and also just received press release.
Yes it is you blins
It is now. It was a different link before.
yahoooooooo!
allright nate won
i bieleve it now
Switch 2 needs some momentum going into the holiday season. Let’s hope this is a big one.
Hope it’s good
This isn’t just big it’s huge, this is what we’ve been waiting for since June last year. Finally the first proper switch 2 direct, we can expect everything, Mario 40th, metroid prime 4 release date, new NSO games, and even zelda news, blow up your party balloons and call your mates round, this is the ultimate time to be a Nintendo fan!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Hopefully Xenoblade 2 remaster and Metroid Prime 2 added to Nintendo sub. Hopefully they don’t add any woke games.
Hopefully we get a new Animal Crossing with trans representation and gay villagers. 🥰
I think at that point I will throw my switch 2 out the window lol
Why would you throw your Switch 2 out of the window because of that? Seems a bit stupid.
XD
Or you know, be a sane person and just NOT buy the game.
5 people like your homophobic comment. Shame.
Yeah not trying to be “that guy” but Nintendo wouldn’t do that. I personally don’t have anything against that, but they’d alienate a HUGE portion of their fan base in doing so. Having LGBTQIA+ stuff in T and M games is one thing (like Fire Emblem), but having it in a kids / family game is just a poor business decision on their part.
Maybe Silk Song release date will be revealed?! For real though, let’s get an MP4 release date along with plans for a stand alone MP4 direct. November and December are kinda filling up, no idea where they would put MP4 this year, if it is ready. Could also see it as a January release.
Well, the reality is that games made by third party appears to be to challenging for the platform (to all platforms in reality) so i Hope that Nintendo understands that first and second party have to – again – show the way. Imagine having a new Star Fox, or shorter games (also less expensive) like a Punch out game.
I think both series are due for a new game.
There is something we can look forward too.
Sure would be nice to get some brand new native Switch 2 games announced and not just addons for existing Switch 1 games. I got the Kirby DLC and I love the Forgotten Land game. But, we need something else in a series. Brand new Zelda, brand new Fire Emblem, brand new Animal Crossing, brand new Mario, etc.
Like a brand new DK game that we just got? Not sure what we will see, but being almost an hour long, im sure we will all be surprised. ;)

Time
Remake
Yes I’d love this to be announced for Switch 2
For those of us in the Americas, the direct starts 6AM Pacific – 9AM Central.
Wrong lol. 9 AM EST. 8 Central. Time zones aren’t that hard
Finally they’ll announce the Chibi Robo x F-Zero crossover game!
A 60 minute general direct on a Friday. Never thought I’d see the day.
