Nintendo announced that, as expected, a Nintendo Direct will appear on September 14, 2023 ahead of the Tokyo Game Show. It will focus on Nintendo Switch games. People can tune in at 7am PT/10am ET/4pm CET. It is also only covering Winter 2023 games and will air worldwide, with the European and Japanese branches also mentioning it.
Here’s the official announcement. It also confirmed that it will be 40 minutes long. While there are rumors that a Switch successor is on the way, with some suggesting it was discussed behind closed doors at gamescom 2023, it is uncertain if it could come up during this presentation.
Tune in on Sept. 14 at 7 a.m. PT for a #NintendoDirect livestream featuring roughly 40 minutes of information focused on #NintendoSwitch games releasing this winter.

We will see a mix of both new games and likely updates on ones we know about from both Nintendo and third-party partners. For example, we could learn more about the Super Mario RPG remake appearing later in 2023. There are a number of upcoming games with 2023 release windows we don’t know much about yet too. For example, Level-5 is working on Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time and Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road and said both will appear sometime this year.
The TGS 2023 Nintendo Direct will be held on September 14, 2023 at at 7am PT/10am ET/4pm CET. Tokyo Game Show will be held September 21-24, 2023.
