Tomorrow’s Nintendo Direct will be one of the longest ever

After several weeks of rumours, Nintendo officially confirmed plans for its next Direct showcase this week. Fans have plenty to be excited for too, as this is set to be the longest Nintendo Direct ever. 

As announced yesterday, the next Nintendo Direct broadcast will take place tomorrow, September 12th, at 2PM BST. The show will go on for a full hour, which ranks this upcoming Direct as the longest ever for Nintendo.

Nintendo Direct streams, which typically contain a mix of first-party and third-party game announcement, normally last between 40 and 45 minutes according to Video Games Chronicle. With that in mind, it appears that Nintendo has been saving up quite a lot of news for this particular show, which could be the last major Direct of the year.

There are a few good reasons for this particular Direct to be longer. For starters, Nintendo will soon be celebrating the 40th anniversary of Super Mario, and we still don't have a release date for Metroid Prime 4.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
