No probably not. But Directs take time to create and Iwata's unexpected passing likely caused some shuffling of duties throughout the company. Combine that with the fact there's only really been one direct-worthy announcement - Pokken (which announcing that at the Pokemon World hampionships was a good move) and they probably didn't feel compelled to hustle one out. And the Mario Maker trailer is clearly an advertisement, not a trailer meant for a Direct. I expect we'll see another Direct either later in the Fall (on the threshold of the Holidays) or at the end of the year (Zelda, GIR #FE, Project Tressure, Pokken, Fire Emblem Fates, Bravely Second, basically 2016 hype).
