Nintendo Direct Reportedly Planned for This Month - News

by William D'Angelo , posted on 03 October 2021 / 4,003 Views

Nintendo is planning to host a new Nintendo Direct sometime this month, according to leaker Zippo who has leaked other Nintendo news before. The leaker expects the Nintendo Direct to either happen this week or next week from what he is hearing.

The Nintendo Direct will focus on Nintendo's remaining 2021 lineup and give a peek at early 2022 games. Zippo expects the Nintendo Direct to have Metroid Dread, Mario Party Superstars, the final Smash character and Advance Wars 1+2.

"This will reportedly focus on their remaining lineup for this year and will give us peeks at early 2022 games.," said Zippo. "I do not know the content of the direct currently, but it's logical to expect final looks at Metroid Dread, Mario Party Superstars, the final Smash character and Advance Wars 1+2."

8th September, Wednesday. That's exactly the day I'd expect the Direct to be.

Pretty sure they've had a September Direct every year since 2016

I think they skipped a year in 2019 or 2020. I can't remember which. There was definitely a year without one unless I'm mistaken.

I checked and there was one for 2019, and every year since 2016.

Oh ok. I thought at one point someone had counted over 500 days since a full direct. I guess I was mistaken.

And it's definitely going to happen unless "plans changed". It's convenient how often Nintendo changes their plans so that these supposed insiders are never wrong.

And it features games coming out over the next six months including Metroid Dread. Truly mind-blowing stuff.

I see what you did there. Metroid is about a girl blowing stuff up with her arm blaster. And the enemies, metroids, look like brains. Well done!

some glimpses of 2022 first semester releases we already know (splatoon 3 etc...), mainly focusing on final looks of 2021 games and a surprise reveal at the end that might be xenoblade 3. Overall, That's what's to be expected. People should be cautious about their expectations this time more than the last time, this direct is one of the most predictable ones contentwise and we shouldn't be decieved because we already had big stuff during the june's direct that almost nothing's left for release this year.
The direct after this one might reveal some better announcements.
