I actually don't think it's a bad thing that the Direct is taking this long. They may be going back and deciding to reveal some new stuff and are making sure to have firm release dates for games we have all been waiting for forever. Alot is riding on the next Nintendo Direct, and if they don't start 2014 off with a bang, they might as well just not have a Nintendo Direct at all.

Man, give them a break, what do they have in the pipeline anyway? Mario Kart 8 and DHTFreeze and Smash Bros later this year, it take a year to make a game, how do you expect them to have news every month.
That is why consoles need the third party support and that is why companies rely on hardware hype, how much can you do only with good games? Not much since it takes time.

I'm sure they've skipped months before.

You guys are all suckers! (jk) This is Iwata's new plan in progress don't you see! First no ads, Then no e3 and now, no more Nintendo Directs! Its all part of his plan cause he is secretly an Agent for OUYA

This

Probably next wednesday. The quarterly results and investor briefing are that day I believe and arent they usually on wednesday anyway?

They made surprises directs before, just releasing a video on youtube with no previous announcment. If the tomorow direct will be focused on indie stuff only, this is the rigth decision.

Anyway, Renegate kid said that they didn't mentioned nintendo, so can be another event, just don't know wich one...

But that is ages away in March, isn't it?  Anyway they have already "announced" the financial results, even if that was not the official one. They have already forecasted doom and gloom for the official results so why not just get on with it and give us "the good news".

If they need more time I totally understand, however.

No, they announced forecasts.  That's not the same thing.  They still need to give detailed accounts of what they've done over the year as they're a public company.  Based on their forecast slashes there is some more bad news to be had.  Full year results will be done in March, but they'll do Q3 results on, I think, the 29th.

Quite. Likely all of the announced software last year was due to the last round of bad financial news. They *never* announce games that early otherwise.
