Nintendo Direct Mini: Partner Showcase Confirmed for July 20
Posted on July 19 2020 by John Piland
After months of suspense, Nintendo finally breaks the silence with the announcement of a Nintendo Direct Mini — coming imminently.
The Direct, which will air at 7 am Pacific Time, is a “Partner Showcase”, which focuses on work from Nintendo’s development and publishing partners. The tweet also mentions that the Direct will feature “a few updates on a small group of previously announced Nintendo Switch games.” Perhaps we’ll see something about the sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild?

John has been a Zelda fan for over 10 years now and is proud to say the series has had a major impact on his life (and wallet). After years of going to Zelda Dungeon for guides or the latest news on the series, John achieved their dream when they joined the writing team in 2019; John can hardly believe how long it’s been. A librarian, he loves meticulously arranging his library of Zelda games and collectibles. After what felt like an eternity of waiting for Tears of the Kingdom, John looks forward to the future of the Zelda franchise with enthusiasm, whether that’s the upcoming movie, a new spin-off/remake, or the next big game.
