Just realizing every Direct of 2020 was either a specialized Direct (Pokemon, Animal Crossing, etc) or a Mini... hmmm...

--- 2019 (119m Nintendo, 41m special, total 160m)
02-13-2019: Nintendo Direct (37m)
02-27-2019: Pokemon Direct (7m)
05-15-2019: Super Mario Maker 2 Direct (17m)
06-05-2019: Pokemon Direct (17m)
06-11-2019: Nintendo E3 Direct (43m)
09-04-2019: Nintendo Direct (39m)
--- 2020 (84 Nintendo, 97 special, total 181m)
01-09-2020: Pokemon Direct (21m)
02-20-2020: Animal Crossing Direct (28m)
03-26-2020: Nintendo Direct mini (29m)
07-20-2020: Nintendo Direct mini, Partner Showcase (8m)
08-26-2020: Nintendo Direct mini, Partner Showcase 2 (12m)
09-03-2020: Super Mario 35th Direct (16m)
09-17-2020: Nintendo Direct mini, Partner Showcase 3 (16m)
09-17-2020: Monster Hunter Direct (16m)
10-28-2020: Nintendo Direct, Partner Showcase 4 (19m)
12-18-2020: Super Nintendo World Direct (16m)

hard to recall how much of a difference being a "Partner Showcase" ultimately was but eh there's only 1 non-partner mini anyways (also didn't even realize that til now) so whatever grouping 'em

I knew that the moment E3 got canceled Nintendo was going to take the year off.

The Direct archive was just updated yesterday, which should mean that there will be another very soon. Who knows what type though!

Could you imagine Nintendo not having a Direct when we're literally getting Bravely Default II and Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury in just one month?

yes, I can easily imagine this, as they basically adopted this strategy all of last year.

I would imagine when Covid hit they went into a strategy of "let's not have full Nintendo directs this fiscal year and see what happens." By now they have maybe seen how fans don't like not having full directs and might plan one for April, I'm guessing.

they might shadow drop a video about SM3D World + Bowser's Fury, but I don't imagine it's big enough to be the centerpiece of its own direct. I'd be happy to be wrong of course

normally I would say "just stop" but considering that devs actually had a demo to show to Edge magazine I'd say the chances might actually be good. at least a trailer/release date/ demo release date.

This one may as well have been considered a full Direct.

There was a rumor floating around that a Nintendo Direct would drop on January 11th, but the claims seem pretty dubious

Directs are starting to feel more and more to feel like a thing of the past. Maybe its just a covid thing but then doing smaller things like partner showcases or individual game announcements/updates is beginning to feel like their new way of doing things
