It’s been a busy year for Nintendo — it released one of the best games of the year and a sequel to Breath of the Wild — but the company isn’t slowing down, hosting its third full-on Nintendo Direct of the year on September 14th.

Nintendo promises that the September Direct will feature “roughly 40 minutes of information” about Nintendo Switch games coming “this winter.” Hopefully, that means we’ll get another look at Super Mario Bros. Wonder, and I’d be thrilled to see another trailer for the Super Mario RPG remake.

But as the Switch is getting on in age, there’s now a console-sized question hanging over every major Nintendo announcement: is Nintendo ready to share details about the company’s Switch successor? It’s rumored to launch as soon as 2024, after all.

Here’s our coverage of the September 2023 Nintendo Direct, which kicks off on Thursday at 10AM ET / 7AM PT.

During its June Direct, Nintendo revealed games like Super Mario Bros. Wonder, the Super Mario RPG remake, and a new WarioWare game. I’m guessing we’ll hear more about all of those during the September Direct, which starts at 10AM ET.

It’s almost time for the third major Nintendo Direct of 2023. It’s set to be a big one, as Nintendo promises that the livestream will feature “roughly 40 minutes of information” focused on the Nintendo Switch games set to release this winter.

Nintendo already has a packed lineup through the rest of the year, so we’ll probably get looks at games like Detective Pikachu Returns (October 6th), Super Mario Bros. Wonder (October 20th), WarioWare: Move It! (November 3rd), and the remake of Super Mario RPG (November 17th).

Today, Nintendo announced a 40-minute fall Direct showcase focusing on games scheduled for release this winter, set to stream on September 14th at 7AM PT / 10AM ET.

Ever since Nintendo had itsSuper Mario Bros. Wonder Direct earlier this month, rumors circulated saying that a bigger, more general Direct would follow. Those rumors strengthened when the Gotham KnightsESRB rating page added Nintendo Switch as one of the game’s platforms.
