A Nintendo Direct has been confirmed for June, after several leaks teased the possibility of a show. Here's what to expect.
The last Nintendo Direct was basically the "waiting for Zelda details" show, but with that behemoth now released and out of the way it's time for something new. We don't know what games will feature in the upcoming Nintendo Direct, but we do now know when it will happen.
Feel like treating yourself this weekend? Get yourself a Switch !

What Games To Expect For The Nintendo Direct
In terms of big releases for the rest of the year, Nintendo only has Pikmin 4 coming on July 21, which will definitely get some air time at this show. Outside of that? Crickets. We expect some cool third party games and hopefully a reveal or two.
Earlier, the leaker Pyoro, who has been proven right before on reveals for games like Everybody 1-2 Switch and Sonic Superstars, went to Twitter to suggest two massive announcements coming at this Nintendo Direct: A 2D Mario game and a remake for a "SNES classic".
Let's hope they turn out to be right!
In case you were ing what games will be announced in this week's #NintendoDirect:

- A new 2D #SuperMarioBros
- Remake of a SNES classic
Nintendo insider Nate the Hate previously suggested that the Nintendo Direct would come in June, which turned out to be correct. However, he didn't indicate what we could see at the show.
Until then, do yourself a favor and get Diablo 4 (we gave it 26/10 in our review!)
Maybe the Nintendo Direct will bring us news on DLC for this gem:
