It's not, Since 2011, there have only been two January Directs (talking general, not game specific). One in 2013 and another in 2015. Its actually more common to see them between the last week of February and the first week of March, which has happened three times. I should also note that Nintendo has not announced a first party title for Switch in a Direct. The only Nintendo published games announced via a Direct were Pokken Tournament DX and a tease of a Fire Emblem game. The whole January Direct is pure speculation. I would still be skeptical of this. There doesn't seem to be any unique images (such as game screenshots), so it could have just been made in photoshop. It also puts the January Direct as TBC, so even if it is real, it's not confirmed here (even the creator of this could be speculating). It's also dubious how someone got it. They just happen to be part of an EA claim email and they just send this? Did the person even provide any additional details from conversations? Seems odd. |
I dont know why you are sceptical about January Nintendo Direct, Nintendo barely said anything about 2018. Switch lineup and they said they will start talking about 2018. lineup after Holiday season, also last non-specifk one was in Septermber, so January Nintendo Direct is almost certain thing in any case.
