There's a lengthy Nintendo Direct tomorrow Featuring Smash Bros. and more. News by Tom Phillips Deputy Editor Updated on 16 Feb 2021 74 comments Surprise! There's an unusually lengthy Nintendo Direct due tomorrow, Wednesday 17th February, at 10pm UK time. Expect 50 minutes of announcements from Nintendo, detailing Switch games due in the first half of this year. Watch on YouTube Super Smash Bros. Ultimate news will also be included - presumably the next character in its new season pass. It's been a long time since last full Nintendo Direct, which makes tomorrow especially exciting. With Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury launched worldwide, Nintendo's release calendar now looks very thin. So, what do we expect to hear about for the six months ahead? Tune in 2/17 at 2 p.m. PT for a #NintendoDirect livestream featuring roughly 50 minutes of information focused on available games like Super #SmashBrosUltimate and games coming to #NintendoSwitch in the first half of 2021.https://t.co/fbG3hEtD0Q pic.twitter.com/w8J6lbdIkQ- Nintendo of America (@NintendoAmerica) February 16, 2021 To see this content please enable targeting cookies. Manage cookie settings The biggest question mark is how Nintendo will celebrate the Zelda series' 35th anniversary. Mario was afforded numerous games and a controversial time-limited compilation for his 35th birthday - it'd make sense for Nintendo to do similar for Link. Would you buy Wind Waker and Twilight Princess yet again? Probably. It's also a while since we heard more on the series' upcoming sequel to Breath of the Wild. It'd be nice to have that locked in for launch in the not-too-distant future. Tune in with us - we'll be reporting on the announcements as they happen.
