Summary
- Nintendo is rumored to be planning an earlier Direct presentation, deviating from its usual September showcase pattern.
- Leaker PH Brazil claims a major announcement, likely a Direct, is set for August.
- If credible, this early Direct could be Nintendo’s main September showcase moved to an earlier time slot, per insider reports.
With August’s end quickly approaching, the Nintendo rumor mill is kicking into overdrive with reports that the company is planning a Direct presentation in the next week. Nintendo is known to stick with a pattern and one of its longest-running traditions is the September Direct, the showcase wherein plenty of exciting titles receive a major update or are finally unveiled. That’s been the case for several years now, but the word online insists that the publisher will soon break its norm and surprise fans with an earlier Direct.
Over on Famiboards, leaker PH Brazil, a notable insider with several correct predictions to his name, insists that some kind of major announcement, likely a Direct, is scheduled for August. Pushing back against claims that his report is inaccurate, PH Brazil doubled down, stating that “most people out there are just making [stuff] up, but I’m not.” The nature of the Direct was not specified but it stands to reason that if the leak is credible, it will probably be Nintendo’s main September showcase that’s merely been shifted forward into an earlier time slot.
