Apparently the rumour was for this week, the 18th. BUT... BUT... the translation is a little fuzzy and closer sources say April 25... which makes more sense due to 25, but so does May 1st, so probably then. But the 18th until further notice is what the rumour of the 11th actually meant.

Is this your translation or someone else's?  I ask because it's 2019 now and we shouldn't have translations with such ambiguity anymore.

Well! You know... Tricky things these rumours are.

Is it safe to assume at this point that our next Direct will happen at E3?

Or at least in May.

I just feel like it would be really odd to have a Direct one month before E3, unless they were planning some weird stealth launch of Animal Crossing or Pikmin 4 for an instant release.  I wouldn't put it past them to do a Nindies Showcase to send a little love to the little guys before the big day, but the only real Nindies info I want is an overhaul of the EShop to separate the quaility from the overabunance of mobile/flash game crap.

Nothing is ever safe to assume when Nintendo is involved, but I do not expect a big Nintendo Direct before E3 anymore.

Smaller, game-specific Directs and Nindie highlights are still fair game, though.

Let's just keep bumping this thread and just hope for a Direct on May 11th

Agreed! If we all wish hard enough, it HAS to happen!

My bet is on June 11

I thought Nintendo said there won't be any Switch revisions this year.

don't take the bait, bro...(of the poster, or Nintendo, or the speculators).  Be vigilant.

They didn't say "this year", they said no announcements for hardware at E3. That doesn't de-confirm anything on their part.
