There was some rumors going around about a presentation happening this week. This weekend, to throw a little fuel to this,a high number of indie studios that work for Switch have been tweeting hints and teases about a new announcement from them later today, and most of them mention a 14:00 CEST hour for their announcement. The Morphies Law's developer have teasing a "big news" for today for a while, until it gave that hour as to when it would happened.

Wakey wakey Morphies! 🤖

Remember we said there was an update coming on Monday? Well it's going to happen at around 14:00 CEST. 😲

See you there! #Nindies #indiedev #gaming #UE4 #NintendoSwitch #GamersUnite #MorphiesLaw

Pre-sleep thoughts: I think Monday is going to be a good day.

There'll be some really exciting news at 14:00 CEST today!

Nintendo Life also claim they had heard from their sources about this Direct today, remember that has happened for Nintendo to just drop a Nindie Direct or a Mini Direct out of nowhere like that, without announcing it first. It will not take long so shortly we will find out.

EDIT: Confirmed and it is live a 22 minute indie presentation.

Wouldn't be the first time I suppose, but I'll remain sceptical. Last time we had a mini Direct there was a lot more word going around. If anything happens I think it just be an Nindie showcase.

Seems like it would be nindies focused if this were the case.

My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

I hope it's just a normal direct, or a mini-direct, either with Nintendo announcements too. Indies are great, but I want Nintendo's B and C tier games to start dropping. Pikmin 4 has been coming for ages now.

Can someone make an "indie" direct sequel to Paper Mario TTYD in the same engine as the original? I'd love a big budget modern one from Nintendo, but since that isn't happening I'll take a gamecube level graphics sequel made by a small studio please!
