First Nintendo Direct of 2024 is a Partner Showcase is this week

Perhaps not the Nintendo Direct you were expecting, nor the one you were hoping for, but a Nintendo Direct nonetheless.

Nintendo is hosting an 25-minute long Nintendo Direct of the partner showcase variety later this week. Expect to see many third party games, or possibly games with Nintendo properties made by third parties. It’ll cover games out in the first half of the year.

Here’s when you’ll need to be up;

• Perth – Wednesday, 21 Feb 2024 at 10:00 pm AWST
• Darwin – Wednesday, 21 Feb 2024 at 11:30 pm ACST
• Adelaide – Thursday, 22 Feb 2024 at 12:30 am ACDT
• Brisbane – Thursday, 22 Feb 2024 at 12:00 midnight AEST
• Sydney, Melbourne, Hobart, Canberra – Thursday, 22 Feb 2024 at 1:00 am AEDT

You’re not going to see the next big Mario game here, nor any new hardware – if that’s what you were thinking.
