Fans have been begging for a new Nintendo Direct, and Nintendo is poised to provide just that: they’ve announced a new Nintendo Direct will air at 10 p.m. GMT on November 12. That’s 2 p.m. EDT for our friends in North America, or 6 a.m. on November 13 EST for our friends in Australia.
This is the first Nintendo Direct since the unfortunate passing of CEO Satoru Iwata earlier this year. The European stream will be hosted by Nintendo of Europe president Satoru Shibata. As of now, it is unknown who will host the North American stream: the current common hypothesis is that Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime will be the face of that stream.

Thursday’s Nintendo Direct will focus on upcoming 3DS and Wii U titles (no mobile games or NX news is expected). Some are speculating we will finally see a remastered Twilight Princess, but we prefer to wait and see what happens. Regardless, we will bring you all of the news after the stream(s)!
