Nintendo is preparing a new Nintendo Direct to inform gamers about their plans for the rest of the year. Those interested in seeing what Nintendo has in store for the Wii U and 3DS can do so on Nintendo's website for this broadcast. The newest Nintendo Direct will begin tomorrow at 7AM PDT according to Gamespot.
No word on what Nintendo will discuss in their new Nintendo Direct, but the comapny will most likely preview several of the titles that they are preparing for the fall to try and boost the Wii U's sales. One of the biggest titles on the way for the console is a remake of a previous title, The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD. That game will be available in October, and may feature a new Master Quest mode for fans to obsess over in addition to the classic game's new facelift.
Another big game set to appear soon for the Wii U is The Wonderful 101. The new IP is set to appear this month for the console, and is the best chance for Nintendo to establish a new franchise for the Wii U and bring some fresh ideas and characters to their roster. Hopefully The Wonderful 101 can build on the success of Pikmin 3 and make August the start of a boom period of Wii U software sales and bring more interest to the struggling console.
Nintendo will be bringing two new games starring the original Nintendo stars to the Wii U. Donkey Kong and Mario will get new games on the Wii U, and both figure to help Nintendo's outlook. Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is due out in November, and Super Mario 3D World is supposed to come out in December.
The 3DS, which has continued Nintendo's dominance on the handheld market despite stiff competition from free to play mobile games and the PlayStation Vita, has some big games coming to it as well. Pokémon X and Y are due out in October, with Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate appearing the same month. The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds is also scheduled to appear for the handheld, along with a new Mario Party title heading to the 3DS. All these could get time in the Nintendo Direct.
Of course, some third-party games for the Wii U also figure into the strong fall roster that may be previewed at the Nintendo Direct. Ubisoft's Splinter Cell: Blacklist will be coming to the Wii U with exclusive features. One of the biggest franchises in video games, Call of Duty, will have a presence on the Wii U with Call of Duty: Ghosts as well.
Look out for the results of tomorrow's Nintendo Direct right here.
