Reported date for Nintendo Direct
Speculation began when Switch Force suggested September 12 as the likely date. This falls on a Friday, which would be unusual for Nintendo, but due to time zone differences, it may appear as September 11 in the West. Video Games Chronicle (VGC) also reported that the Direct is planned for mid-September, though without confirming a specific day.

September tradition continues
Nintendo has a history of scheduling Direct events in September. These presentations often build momentum ahead of the Tokyo Game Show, which takes place later in the month. If the reports are accurate, this would fit with the company’s established calendar of announcements.

What was shown last time
The last Nintendo Direct aired in late July 2025, but it was labeled as a Partner Showcase. That event mainly focused on third-party games. A September edition, however, is expected to highlight Nintendo’s own first-party titles, giving fans updates on highly anticipated releases.

Possible anniversary surprise
September 2025 also marks the 40th anniversary of the Super Mario Bros. franchise. Back in 2020, Nintendo celebrated the 35th anniversary with a dedicated Direct full of Mario-related announcements. With another milestone arriving, fans are speculating that the September showcase could feature a similar celebration.
