Which would mean the next proper Nintendo Direct airing on Thursday February 27 and getting announced on Wednesday.
This, of course, remains to be seen – but if a Nintendo Direct does not happen in February then the broadcast may not be too far behind.
Another alleged leak has claimed that Ninty will be holding a Nintendo Direct broadcast in the second week of March.
The leaker claimed Metroid Prime 4 and Pikmin 4 will feature in this Nintendo Direct.
The alleged leak, which was outlined in a now deleted Reddit post, said: “I know 9 times out of 10 this s**** fake but all I can do is offer you my word that my source is legit.
“An old HS classmate has work involved with Nintendo – don’t want to divulge much more than that, but their level of internal knowledge is significant.
“I was in their city for work over the weekend and we caught up over some beers on Saturday night.
“What I’ve been told is that an Animal Crossing Direct will be announced tomorrow morning and will take place Thursday.
