* Nintendo Switch games, with a focus on Super Smash Bros. Ultimate June 12, 2018

You forgot the January 2018 Mini direct and Pokemon Conference 2018.

Of course, there were also the ARMS, Splatoon 2, Fire Emblem, Pokemon, Animal Crossing Pocket Camp, and Xenoblade 2 specific directs last year.

We still have 5 months to go for the rest of the year. We can potentially have a general direct and a Smash Bros for the rest of the year. Nintendo seems to have made a commitment to maintain a presence, in terms of messaging, throughout the year since last year.
