Can confirm. Wright's right that he writes right. If anyone's looking for a freelance games journo then you can't go wrong with Wright.

Not sure why everyone is asking for a title reveal in the Nintendo Direct. It's clearly already been announced as The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Spring 2023.

As a mark of respect during this period of national mourning, we will not livestream tomorrow’s Nintendo Direct. It will be published as a video-on-demand on our YouTube channel at 16:00 (UK time) tomorrow.

According to a Nikkei report Nintendo is planning to shrink the size of the Nintendo Switch packaging by 20% This is meant to improve transportation efficiency and help with supply issues vooks.net/nintendo-to-sh

Recently I keep seeing the V2 Nintendo Switch getting discounted even further down across a bunch of UK online retailers. Went from £279 to £259, now £229. Seems odd considering Nintendo's current supply issues. Are they trying to clear stock?

Take that as you will. 🤷‍♂️

Nikkei: there will be no new Nintendo hardware this fiscal year, which ends in March 2023. Not immediately clear whether that part of the article is from Nikkei's own reporting or what Nintendo President, who Nikkei interviewed for the story, said. nikkei.com/article/DGXZQO

Welp. Tried to keep away from these types of rumours for so long, but way too much smoke now. It looks like a new model could be announced towards the end of the year. Apparently works with current carts, improved perf, retains branding & form factor. No more info than that.

Keep your expectations low for this week. We might get something, we might not. Either way, it's probably not going to be what you want.

Yacht Club Games just released all their Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove sprites, game art, etc under a CC noncommercial license. Amazing reference point for pixel artists, aspiring devs, Shovel Knight fans, and everyone in between. Major kudos to the team.

Guess I'm going to stop reading reviews and just start using Horizon franchise releases dates as my guide to buying games now. Whatever comes after is destined to be GOTY.

Just started playing Horizon Forbidden West on base PS4 and honestly, it's crazy how good this looks on 8+ year old hardware.

Without giving too much away... this Nintendo Direct will definitely resonate with people who like to watch a set of predetermined advertisements arranged by employees of a multinational video game company in a way as to maximise consumer interest. But don't quote me on that.

We're in the cycle where rumour twitter accounts will say things like "Let's just say the Nintendo Direct will satisfy people who resonate with specific games"

Nearly 5 years after launch and the Nintendo Switch shows no signs of slowing down. Nintendo just broke their previous weekly sales record for hardware across UK/EU.
