All that was missing was Nintendo and now the Japanese firm has confirmed, yesterday very late in the evening, that the event everyone is talking about will indeed take place! The release is imminent and the Japanese manufacturer plans to reveal to us the many surprises it has in store for the Nintendo Switch… until June 2024! Duration, content, date and time of this Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase: we share with you all the information currently available so you don't miss a single thing.
Nintendo is about to come full circle: the Switch is ready for the next few months!
That's it, the manufacturers' circle will indeed be closed this week with a speech from Nintendo. We are almost at the end of February and this new video game year is officially launched thanks to the trio formed by Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft. Like every year, the Japanese firm invites us to present its new video games for the first half of 2024, i.e. until next June. This speech was obviously expected: PlayStation offered us, in quick succession, two States of Play – one, more general, and the other, more specific and centered on Final Fantasy VII Rebirth – while Xbox organized a podcast with some pundits from Microsoft to clarify the situation and the strategy of the gaming branch.
Behind the scenes, it is even rumored that this presentation, led by Nintendo, was supposed to take place a few days earlier, just to give us time to digest the Switch news before the famous Pokémon Presents, also made official, took place during the last hours. Because, yes, Xbox's speaking out would have forced Nintendo to change its plans at the last minute. A good player, the Japanese manufacturer is therefore adapting its calendar and has just set an imminent and spectacular meeting ! No, it's not yet time for the console that will succeed the Switch: it's the partner studios that will be in the spotlight.

Nintendo launches its year 2024 with the broadcast of a Direct Partner Showcase
The nice thing about Nintendo is that you rarely have to wait very long between the announcement of a presentation and the broadcast. Announced last night, at 11 p.m. sharp, this somewhat special Nintendo Direct will take place on Wednesday February 21 at 3 p.m. and is supposed to last around twenty minutes, 25 more precisely according to the Nintendo press release. To return to the “a little special” mention, it is important to specify that this is a presentation which will focus on games developed and published by entities working in partnership with Nintendo. In any case, on social networks, we are already starting to develop a list of guests present during this Live.
Sometimes Nintendo can be a Partner because they love dolphinsð¬

Besides the endless joke around the game Hollow Knight Silksong, there are a lot of rumors from the corridors and small clues scattered here and there. For example, we recently spotted the mention of “Shin Megami Tensei V Vengeance”, a probable improved and complete version of the title released in November 2021. Besides that, players are saying that the advent of Metroid Prime 4 may be -be imminent or that we are not safe from a shadowdrop of a second remaster of Metroid Prime, given that the one released last year was a real hit. And then, to seal it all, there are the messages posted by the now highly scrutinized leaker Pyoro – he was once again right about the broadcast of a Direct this week – who had fun with all this agitation to slip in the names of Game Freak and make an allusion to dolphins (“Dolphins”, a term which could make think of the code name… of the GameCube)! In short, be there, there could be surprises!
