After an introduction to the next exclusive, a new, more general Nintendo Direct could be held shortly. It leaked again with additional information.
Yesterday was the first Nintendo Direct video game of the year. However, it was a somewhat special meeting, as it was dedicated solely to one of the upcoming Nintendo Switch exclusives, Tomodachi Life A dream life. Therefore, many are wondering when the first “real” conference will take place, which will present the productions to come in the coming months. New details have just leaked, it might be getting closer.
A new Nintendo Direct would be imminent
Rumors in the corridors are growing louder and louder regarding Big N’s next speech. According to rumors, the Kyoto firm plans to give a new conference in less than a week. According to the insider Nate the Hatethe meeting would be fixed behind the scenes at February 5, 2026. A date that he confirms again on social networks after talking about it for the first time on his YouTube channel.
It turns out that he is not the only one to bring forward this date. Also on YouTube, another insider took the liberty of corroborating his statements. GameXplain would also have heard of a conference for February 5. That said, he warns that this Nintendo Direct would take the form of a “Partner” conference (” Partner “). What Nate the Hate also puts forward on his side.
What video games could be presented?
If we are indeed entitled to a Nintendo Direct “Partner” next week, in this case the conference would give pride of place to games from third-party publishers. And this format seems more than likely after a hasty post from Shapefarm on the social network Orbitals would be one of the titles shown on the occasion of this new event which has not yet been officially announced.
Thus, the next Nintendo Direct would highlight third-party games coming to Switch 2 or earlier. In this sense, we can expect to see again Resident Evil Requiemsince it is due to be released at the end of February. Let’s also remember that we still don’t have a release date more precise than “2026” for the Tarnished Edition ofElden Ring and the Anniversary Edition of Fallout 4. Also hope to have news of the next one Professor Laytona second party production postponed until this year.
