Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase to broadcast in just 24 hours

Nintendo has confirmed the next Nintendo Direct, and it’s a Partner Showcase taking place 24 hours from the publishing of this article. We can never write “Thursday night” because for some the country here in Australia it isn’t, so this will have to do for now.

Nintendo says the Direct will be about 30 minutes long. The presentation will also feature both Switch and Switch 2 titles.

Here’s when you’ll need to be up for it — it’s a late/early one, so crack out the sugar and power through with the rest of us:
