Surprise! An extraordinarily lengthy Nintendo Direct is slated for tomorrow, Wednesday 17th February, at 10 pm UK time. Anticipate a whopping 50 minutes of thrilling announcements from Nintendo, meticulously detailing the Switch games slated for the first half of this year.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate news will undoubtedly be part of the lineup – presumably unveiling the next character in its fresh season pass. It’s been an extended period since the last comprehensive Nintendo Direct, making tomorrow an event of particular excitement. With Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury having been launched globally, Nintendo’s release schedule currently appears rather sparse. So, what precisely do we anticipate hearing about for the upcoming six months?
Tune in 2/17 at 2 p.m. PT for a #NintendoDirect livestream featuring approximately 50 minutes of information centered on accessible games such as Super #SmashBrosUltimate and games headed to #NintendoSwitch in the first half of 2021.https://t.co/fbG3hEtD0Q pic.twitter.com/w8J6lbdIkQ

The most significant question remains: How will Nintendo commemorate the Zelda series’ 35th anniversary? Mario received a multitude of games and a contentious time-limited compilation for his 35th birthday – it seems logical for Nintendo to follow a similar approach for Link. Would you be inclined to purchase Wind Waker and Twilight Princess once again? Chances are, you probably would. It’s also been a considerable while since we’ve received further updates on the series’ forthcoming sequel to Breath of the Wild. It would be delightful to have its launch confirmed in the near future. Tune in with us – we’ll be diligently reporting on the announcements as they unfold.
