It’s Nintendo Direct time. At 2pm UK time (9am ET, 6am PT, 3pm CEST), Nintendo will give us an hour-long look at what it’s been cooking up.
We’ve been promised updates and releases for both Switch consoles, old and new, and the pressing question for this Direct broadcast is will it feature Mario? Remember, it’s the 40th anniversary of Super Mario Bros. this weekend, so now would be a great time to unveil something new. But what?
The Mario Galaxy team was behind Donkey Kong Bananza, so perhaps it’s a follow up to the 2D Mario Wonder from 2023. Or perhaps it’s something else altogether. Besides Mario, we’re hoping for a release date for Metroid Prime 4. And a lovely basket of surprises besides.
Tom and I will be delivering the blow-by-blow report, and after the show ends, we’ll continue the day’s liveblogging here.
