Nintendo didn’t opt for the traditional big Direct this June, and instead we saw a so-called Direct Mini focused on third-party games. It was not a full showcase, as evidenced by the fact that the 25-minute video was released immediately, rather than as a premiere. Regardless, we received some interesting announcements, which you can clearly see in this summary.
