February continues to move forward and, at least so far, there is no official sign that the next NintendoDirect is on the way. Although multiple rumors and reports have indicated that it is only a matter of time before this presentation takes place, new information has revealed the reason why the Big N has not carried out one of its characteristic events, and It seems that everything is due to Xbox.
Through his official Twitter account, Jeff Grubb, famous industry insider, has pointed out that the reason why we have not seen an official announcement related to the Nintendo Direct, It's because the Xbox event will take place today. Similar to what happened with the death of Queen Elizabeth II in 2022, the Big N is taking other events into consideration to plan its own presentation. This is what Grubb commented:
“I know no one wants to hear this, but just like when the Queen died, this is real: I heard earlier this week that [Nintendo estaba] discussing moving the Direct *due* to the Xbox retail update.
I never knew the date for sure. I just heard in mid-February.”
I know no one wants to hear this, but just like when the Queen died, this is real: I heard earlier this week that they were discussing moving the Direct *because* of the Xbox business update.
I've never known the date for sure. I've only ever heard by the middle of Feb. https://t.co/ftRb0i2Clt

However, Grubb has indicated that the Nintendo Direct could take place during the middle of February, so, technically, there are still a couple of days for him to fulfill this prediction. This means that next week could be the right time to enjoy this virtual event.
This means that, according to this information, The Nintendo Direct could have information related to the future of Xboxas could be the revelation that HiFi Rush It would be available on the Switch, a rumor we have heard since the beginning of the year. In this way, the possibility that in today's Xbox podcast we will have information about the arrival of its games to other consoles is not ruled out.
It is clear that, at least for the moment, we can only wait for Nintendo to announce its next Direct. However, Now everything seems to indicate that at some point next week this long-awaited presentation will take place. On related topics, these would be the announcements of the next Nintendo Direct. Likewise, there is bad news about this presentation.
Editor's Note:
This makes sense. Considering that Xbox's unveiling today could completely change the company's direction in the industry, it's very likely that multiple announcements will be embargoed, and it won't be until we have a clear idea of this that Nintendo can give yourself the luxury of talking about your future.
