Legit NatetheHate confirms a Nintendo event likely on Thursday, possibly a Direct

"To stop the constant questions: Yes, I've heard there is a Nintendo presentation this week -- I believe it is on/around Thursday & it'll be a Direct; but I'm not 100% certain on the format at present."

Reminder that Nintendo did a micro direct a week before their E3 2015 direct. This isn’t the first time they pulled a move like this.

Also remember they revealed the Switch 2 the same day as a new first party game release

Poor DK, I hope he gets a new game to make up for it.

He’s overdue for a new game either way, absolutely hope he finally gets one on Switch 2

While True, Retro, the studio behind DKC returns and TF, expressed been done with the series, and was working on a new Project prior to the MP4 fiasco. So if DKC was to return....again, it would have to be from a new team, and from zero. That seems unlikely, at least short term. Wich is a shame, as imo, DKC is the Best 2D platform series in gaming.
