Nintendo Indie and Partner Direct: all the news and trailers

While we wait for a Switch 2 announcement, Nintendo is showing off 40 minutes of game announcements from indie developers and third-party partners. Even without a Switch 2 reveal, it’s been a busy period of announcements for Nintendo. There was a packed Direct in June filled with major reveals like Mario & Luigi: Brothership and The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, and last week, the company showed off its upcoming museum in Kyoto. Now we have a pair of events squashed together: the Indie World Showcase followed by a Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase.
Don’t expect any major first-party titles during either stream — sorry, Metroid fans — and Nintendo has confirmed it won’t be talking about its next console. Even still, there will likely be a lot on display. Nintendo says that the events will last around 40 minutes combined, which is a lot of airtime for video game trailers. (Here’s what went down at the spring Indie World Showcase for an idea of what to expect.)
Things kick off on August 27th at 10AM ET. You can follow along with all of the biggest announcements right here in the stream, and watch along at the embed below.
