After that of June, a new Nintendo Direct would be in preparation at Nintendo. Zelda and Metroid could make a surprise appearance during the show.
In recent weeks, gamers, whatever their platform of choice, have all had good reason to smile at what the development studios have in store for them. Since the PlayStation Showcase in May, conferences follow one another and significant announcements with them, auguring great things for video game enthusiasts. On Nintendo Switch, the public will also have something to do in the coming months, as the latest Nintendo Direct showed us. However, Big N would still have some underfoot and would plan to quickly broadcast a new digital conference.
A Nintendo Direct is already in preparation
It is once again thanks to Jeff Grubb, often well informed about what is going on behind the scenes of video games, that we learn that a new Nintendo Direct could take place in September, only a few weeks after the last one. According to him, the event should be held at the same time as Nintendo Live 2023, a trade show open to the public which runs from 1er to September 4, 2023 in Seattle. The journalist indicates that this is all he knows for the moment, specifying that he has no information on the games that will be presented, especially since according to him, Nintendo tends to change its plans ” for all kinds of reasons “.
Despite everything, Jeff Grubb still makes two important revelations concerning cult sagas, without indicating that the announcements will be made at Nintendo Direct. ” A remaster of Metroid Prime 2: Echoes is probably coming very soon “, he says, taking a few tweezers all the same. The journalist already claimed several months ago that Nintendo planned to release new versions of Metroid Prime 2 And 3 after the release of Metroid Prime Remastered. And that’s not all, as he adds that according to his sources, ” something about Zelda not related to Tears of the Kingdom is coming this year “. Again, the rumors around potential remasters of Zelda Wind Waker And Twilight Princess have been going strong for a long time, so it wouldn’t be surprising if announcements were made at this back-to-school conference.
Zelda and Metroid back at the end of the year?
In any case, these hallway noises should please Nintendo Switch owners, even if again, there is nothing to confirm that Big N will present all of this during the Nintendo Direct. Especially since the manufacturer’s last online conference was already particularly rich in emotions. Indeed, in September, we will only be a few weeks away from the release of the game in 2D. Super Mario Bros. wonder, which should appeal to historical fans of the saga on October 20. We can imagine that it will be presented at greater length by the Kyoto firm, just like the remake of super mario rpgdue November 17 on Switch.
For its part, the game Princess Peach remains particularly mysterious for the moment. In the short teaser released during the last Nintendo Direct, producers Yoshiaki Koizumi and Shinya Takahashi promised to give more information on the game due in 2024 soon. Finally, a remake of Luigi’s Mansion 2 should also see the light of day next year, which still leaves room for Nintendo before revealing it in more detail.
