New Nintendo Direct announced, will focus on Pokemon Sword and Shield

A new Nintendo Direct has been announced, with it set to focus on Pokemon Sword and Shield. The Direct will air on June 5, ahead of E3 2019.

This means they will have had both a Mario Maker and Pokémon directs before E3, allowing them to not be the major focus of their E3 presentation.

I’m happy about this because I want more information of Luigi’s Mansion 3, Animal Crossing, Town, Astral Chain, and others.

[TheFirstClassic]

Yeah this gives me hope that they have a lot of surprises come e3

[Old McGroin]

Monolith Soft's New Game
Shin Megami Tensei 5

I'd be really happy if something about these are shown this June.

[Sono421]

I mean... yeah, 99% of that list is releasing second half of this year and they should be putting out more games than ever before now that they only need to support one console instead of 2, so there should be quite a few announcements for next year and maybe beyond.

[Fonso128]

This might sound weird but I hope announces more ports. I would gladly re buy Zelda Wind Waker & Xenoblade. And If Nintendo announced virtual console coming to the Switch on top of all those games you listed than Nintendo they beat Sony and MS by a long shot.

[notachance]

yeah I still need that port of WiiU's Xenoblade Chronicles X and Tokyo Mirage Sessions

[Sono421]

Forget ports, do more remasters of older games, Mario Sunshine remastered would be amazing, or Pokemon Colosseum/XD or Kirby Air Ride, or even sequels to those games, like cmon Nintendo, are you just going to pretend the gamecube didn't exist? And when are we going to get a 3D donkey kong game??

[CyberSentinel]

I can’t wait! ☺️

[-Foxtrot]

Hopefully they show off the legendaries and which version gets what

[Fonso128]

I’m really eager to see the starters 2nd and 3rd evolution. Also maybe a story detail.

[Angelagates]

I think stars were right dude!! They will have both Mario maker and Pokemon directs before the E3? YES !! they won’t be the major focus of E3 presentation. It’s great coz we will get to know more about Luigi’s Mansion 3, Animal Crossing, Town, Astral Chain, and many more. CHEERS Liberated Lovers!!!

[kevinsheeks]

astral chain looks so fun

[Si-Fly]

What’s that got to do with the price of fish?

[Antnee534]

There is also a press conference may 28

[King_Noctis]

So they get their biggest game out of the way so they can show other stuff during their E3 Direct. Interesting.

[OneLove]

Lol I never expect anything from Nintendo at e3. They dont even try.

[hellztourguide420]

You mean like be like Sony this year and just not show up?

[OneLove]

I mean arnt the directs like 30 min long....I cant see why anyone could expect anything from them at e3
