I also have still games to play and buy so i'm not complaining but i just want news on Botw 2 and other titles coming in the near future.
They have announced directs the same day, once they announced a general direct the morning it was happening and they went live like at 4 or 6 pm EST i don't remember the exact hour, it was in the Wii U era.
It could also be a shadowdrop Mini direct but i don't think so, they will def announce the Mario collection and it is not content that you just want to drop without anticipation. The thing is, maybe they delayed the announcement date since the direct leaked and they don't want the news of the Mario collection to spread already during the weekend.
Or maybe they just never planned to announce it until Sunday or the same day.
The rumor was never about the announcement date, no one knows when it will get announced. But people know there is a direct coming. Kelios just suggested it could be Friday as an opinion since they don't usually announce them on weekends or on the same day (with some exceptions).
But we'll see, i won't get hyped until it's confirmed but i still think it could happen. Anyway i work from 7 to 3 pm monday so i hope it will get announced in the morning for a late afternoon direct at like 4 pm :p
Update : Aight, i'm still pretty confident. The mighty king of insiders from resetera that leaked A LOT and always correctly in the past and that has had to change it's name on Resetera just said it isn't a Mario direct but a general direct. Don't know if it's a Mini or a Big one tho.
So i'm still confident. They won't drop a general without announcing it, so i expect an announcement tomorrow for a 12pm EST Direct Monday OR a Monday morning announcement for an afternoon direct.
