Rather than show off its upcoming titles at major gaming events, Nintendo prefers to host its own presentations to share what gamers can expect from its releases in the coming months. Lately, big Nintendo games such as Splatoon 3 have been given their own Nintendo Direct showcase, solely focusing on the gameplay, story, and other features players will experience in the lead up to release. Now, it seems a new Nintendo Direct could be on the way, with the upcoming presentation reportedly focusing on two Legend of Zelda games. Show This news comes from well-known industry insider Jeff Grubb. Speaking on his Last of the Nintendogs podcast, at 17:03 Grubb mentioned that a new Nintendo Direct was expected for the week beginning on September 12, and prior to that, his co-host Mike Minotti stated that announcements of Wind Waker and Twighlight Princess HD remakes were expected. Regarding the exact date these Legend of Zelda reveals will take place, Grubb said that the week of the 12th isn't fully confirmed and Nintendo could push the presentation up to happen as soon as next week. Grubb still believes that the week of the 12th is more likely, as this would give Nintendo time to do the Direct before Tokyo Game Show begins on September 15. Either way, very soon some iconic Zelda games could be announced to be getting Switch ports. While the HD Switch port usually doesn't equate to a remaster of a game, for many fans who still appreciate Wind Waker and Twilight Princess as unique entries in The Legend of Zelda franchise, it will be exciting to see those older titles get some attention. At 11:20 in the video, Minotti states that he is "very, very sure" that the Wind Waker and Twighlight Princess HD ports would be getting announced at this upcoming Nintendo Direct, but Grubb had some other ideas of what will feature at the show. In terms of other Legend of Zeldagames, Grubb stated that he would enjoy Nintendo using the engine for the Link's Awakening remake to recreate another 2D Zelda title. However, this was not something that he believed would be at the presentation, meaning that fans shouldn't get their hopes up about seeing anything like that at the presentation, especially with Breath of the Wild 2 on the way. With Nintendo's big releases for 2022 already set up for launch, both Grubb and Minotti agreed that this upcoming Nintendo Direct will likely show fans what the company has in mind for its future. According to Grubb, this could feature anything from a new Mario title to even a Metroid Prime remaster. Even if none of those franchises are featured, it is expected that should this Direct take place, it will have a strong Legend of Zelda focus.

 One of the gaming internet's more reliable sources of leaks is reporting that a Nintendo Direct will happen in September, and that Switch versions of two classic Zelda games will be announced there. That's according to journalists Mike Minotti and Jeff Grubb, speaking on their Last of the Nintendogs podcast. "We are committing to it: there's going to be a Nintendo Direct in September," Minotti said. He also said "the one thing we are very, very sure is getting announced at this Direct are the Wind Waker and Twilight Princess ports for Switch." Grubb's sources say the Direct is likely to happen the week of September 12, though the specific date is uncertain. With Zelda news expected here, this is unlikely to be a third-party-focused Partner Direct, though it could still take on that Direct Mini branding, meaning there wouldn't be quite as many big announcements as you might expect. Grubb said he's aware of some "not super exciting" third-party announcements planned for the show. That's all Grubb and Minotti were willing to confidently report about the Direct based on their sources, though they did speculate that this is a likely venue for long-expected announcements like the Metroid Prime remaster, a release date for Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp, an official reveal for the leaked Fire Emblem game, or Game Boy games for the Switch Online service. It's worth noting that Nintendo has had a major Direct broadcast in September every year since the launch of the Switch, so a new event this coming month would fit neatly into that pattern.
