So, for the last few weeks, some of you guys have been wondering when Nintendo does their Nintendo Directs. They mostly just come out of the blue; BUT, if you apparently follow social media enough, (which i don't) Nintendo always posts about a new Nintendo Direct about the day before.

So, if you don't like social media, then i'll just help you and stuff, by immediately announcing this:

Nintendo is having a Nintendo Direct focused on Wii U & 3DS games tomorrow, August 7th at 7am PT, 9am CST, 10am EST.

*goes back to being bored*
 
Re: The (un)Official Nintendo Direct Schedule

Thank you.

(That was serious btw.)
 
Re: The (un)Official Nintendo Direct Schedule

There's rumors that characters will be announced via game releases and/or Nintendo directs each month in regards to SSB4.

In particular there was a rumor that the next one was going to be a Pokemon character reveal (Whether it's a veteran like Pokemon Trainer, a newcomer from a more recent Pokemon gen or even the much requested return of Mewtwo).

Maybe there will be no absolutely no SSB4 info at all in this direct, but you never know.

The rumor said the next reveal would be a Pokemon one. I kinda see at least one more before October. And if the Pokemon reveal is this month or even in September, maybe they're saving October for Sonic when Sonic Lost World also releases that month. (Or they could do both a new Pokemon character SSB4 reveal AND Sonic in the same month, ya never know)
 
Re: The (un)Official Nintendo Direct Schedule

Oh my gosh yes! I love Nintendo Directs. Thanks for letting me know, I always miss them and have to watch them on youtube.

So hope there is some Smash 4 newcomer info or something! And Mario Kart 8 characters.

And new games. Or heck, maybe even Pikmin 3 DLC.
 
Re: The (un)Official Nintendo Direct Schedule

Oh, yeah, Mario Kart info. That makes sense.

So, yeah, Mario Kart, Super Mario 3D World, maybe some more stuff on A Link Between Worlds...

If they ARE doing something about Smash Bros, it's going to be a big announcement of a newcomer with a video made especially for the announcement, like the other newcomers were.

Pokemon X and Y has had information being released independently of Nintendo Directs, so I doubt that will change. There'll probably be all the stuff we know already about it.
