Nintendo August Event May Not Be a General Direct; A “Direct Equivalent” Is to Be Expected in Mid-September – Rumor

A new Nintendo Direct is reportedly scheduled for later this week, August 28th, but there's the possibility that it will not be a proper Direct.
Speaking on Twitter, VentureBeat's Jeff Grubb, who correctly revealed information about gaming events before their official announcement, revealed that this week's Nintendo event may not be a proper Direct, as August 28th is a Friday, and Nintendo never aired a Direct on a Friday before. Grubb also added that a Direct equivalent should be coming by the middle of September, which would make quite a lot of sense, considering the latest general Direct has been held in September 2019.
