People are craving for new announcements from Nintendo in 2018 after they got they're first taste in the Nintendo Direct Mini released today. So when do you think the next Nintendo Direct will be?

First of all; grain of salt people, we all know that happened last time we got a little overboard over stuff including possible Nintendo Directs...

Personally I don't think we'll get our next "full" Nintendo Direct until March at the earliest or April at the latest, but something to keep in mind.

Maybe in a few days or a couple weeks. They sometimes have a direct right after a Mini. If not then the next one will be in March.

February 1st.

"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Oh wow! Didn't know it was that quick after a mini.

I was saying that by March to celebrate 1 year of Switch. But it might come earlier than that.

I'm pretty sure we will get more announcements in january or early february. There are titles we know are coming soon (wolfenstein, octopath, DQXI...) that weren't mentioned today. We need that information and a proper direct is the best choice.

Yeah, tomorrow. Nintendo published a Direct mini video (which wasn't even live) today so if they go full "yolo", they could make a real direct tomorrow
