News: Nintendo Direct incoming September 12! Here's what we expect. Did you see what you're hoping to see?

Earlier in the year, Nintendo launched its Switch 2 hardware in a Direct held on April 2, 2025. Fans were treated to a breakdown of the new console’s specs, revealing features like mouse control (“Mouse Mode”), GameChat functionality via the “C” button, and upgrades for legacy titles such as Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, now offering enhanced resolution and performance on the new system.

Given its absence of a firm release date, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is a near-certainty for further coverage. Expect a deeper dive into its psychic abilities, perhaps a full gameplay demo, and hopefully, a release window. Nintendo’s celebration of Super Mario’s 40th anniversary looms large, and the upcoming Direct may hinge on at least one meaningful commemorative announcement. This could be anything from a remaster of a classic 3D Mario game, a new Mario-themed spin-off, or a compilation of classic titles.
