Considering the insistent rumors of recent days, many were expecting a new one Nintendo Direct this week, but according to the sources of journalist and insider Jeff Grupp, the Kyoto company has decided to postpone his showcase because of theMicrosoft event tonight in which he will reveal the future of Xbox and, supposedly, the new multiplatform strategy.
To be precise, according to Grubb the Xbox “business update”, which was evidently planned in a short time due to the spread of rumors relating to the arrival of Xbox games on PS5 and Switch, proved to be an unexpected event for Nintendo in its plans such as to lead to the postponement of the next Direct. A hypothesis not even so unlikely, if we think that something very similar had happened in September 2022 due to the death of Queen Elizabeth.
“I know no one wants to hear this, but the same thing is really happening as what happened when the Queen died: I heard earlier this week that they were discussing moving the Direct because of the Xbox business update,” he said. said Grubb, who later added, “I never knew the date for sure. I only ever heard about mid-February.”
Nintendo Direct in February yes or no?
We clearly can't know for sure whether Grubb's information is true or not, but it must be said the February Direct has now become a real tradition for the players, therefore, we have no difficulty in believing them.
If indeed the event has been postponed, it is likely that it will only be for a few days and therefore news could arrive on the matter at the beginning of next week. We'll see.
