FULL STORY
======================================================================The 
next Nintendo Direct showcase is reportedly set to air on September 12 The 
presentation would be broadcast one day before Super Mario Bros. ' 40th 
anniversary, a perfect time to announce a new game The release date for 
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond could also be announced 

A Nintendo Direct showcase is reportedly scheduled to air next month. 

That's according to multiple anonymous sources who told VGC that the next 
Nintendo presentation is planned for mid-September, specifically September 
12, though the details of what to expect are still under wraps. 

A Nintendo content creator, 'SwitchForce', also shared a post on X / Twitter 
, hinting that a Direct will air on the same date, writing: "Nintendo tried 
to phone in an emergency about the missing Switch 2 games, but they 
accidentally dialed 912." 

It wouldn't be unusual for a new Direct to be held next month since, aside 
from 2024, one has been held every year since Nintendo's presentations kicked 
off. 

This mid-September showcase would also arrive just in time for Super Mario 
Bros. ' 40th anniversary, which is on September 13. 

The fact that a Direct is rumored to be taking place so close to Mario's 
birthday would be the perfect opportunity for Nintendo to announce the next 
Super Mario Bros. game for Switch 2 , or even a potential remake of an 
earlier entry in the series. 

There's also the matter of other major Switch games that have to receive 
release dates, namely Metroid Prime 4: Beyond . The game was announced in 
2017, but was later rebooted as a new project in 2019 under Retro Studios. 

The last we saw of the game was in June 2024, with a gameplay trailer and 
confirmation of a 2025 launch window for Nintendo Switch . Here's hoping the 
rumored Direct will offer a firm release date and perhaps even announcement 
of a Switch 2 version. You might also like... Here are the three biggest
