Y'know, it's funny: After the nightmare that was the Nintendo Directs of 2025, and with how peaceful discourse has been ever since they stopping doing them, I can't say I'm going into this Direct all too jubiliantly. But if this is what you guys want... brace for impact. I don't think Nintendo's gonna show a lot, and that's going to leave a lot of you very displeased. Nintendo's almost certainly going to hold any 2027 reveals for after the price hike is put into place; hence I expect no more than what has been rumored as well as a few little small things. All for 2026. Maybe one game for 2027 if lucky.

If anybody is looking for some “soft confirmation” that a Direct is coming this week, Nintendo always has maintenance done the week of a Direct. Seems like (as expected) Nate was right again.

That said, maybe to lift spirits from my previous post: Let’s see that Pikmin 4 NS2 Edition! Ooh that is a big one for me… I’m keeping my eyes shut when it comes to the OoT remake. Don’t want anything spoiled until that game is literally in the palm of my hands.
