yup we’re not getting nintendo direct in this month
Troll harder
Not a troll it’s concern
We probably won’t get one until June tbh. Switch 2 game development takes much longer than Switch 1 game development, and so they can’t show off what’s not ready to be announced.
I agree it’s concerning, but we likely need to rethink the pattern of getting Directs that we’ve been accustomed to for the past generation. In all likelihood the rate of which we get them will change.
*Switch. There’s no such thing as Switch 1.
Cry about it. Switch 1 is what I’ll always say because that’s what I and many others want to call it. Do you get pissed off at people for saying PS1 too? Grow up.
I guess the ps1 is just playstation now. Speak logically next time you comment.
The comment above me was for Robyn W, not cosmic tornado. Just to be clear I am on CosmicTornado’s side
