Nintendo is closing out the summer with a 40-minute showcase

Nintendo has added one final event to the summer game-a-palooza calendar with not one but two game showcases. Tomorrow at 7AM PT / 10AM ET, Nintendo will host an indie world showcase, and then a partner direct will immediately follow. Altogether, Nintendo says the two back-to-back events will be 40 minutes long.

These two showcases will likely not have announcements as big as those in June, but hey, Hollow Knight: Silksong by Team Cherry hasn’t been seen in years, and it is technically an indie game, so… y’know hope springs eternal.

Of note, the company has once again trotted out what’s become its catchphrase of late, warning viewers that, “there will be no mention of the Nintendo Switch successor during either of these presentations.” The new console is rumored for launch in Q1 2025, with promises it’ll be revealed before April 2025.
