Short and Sweet: The Number of Nintendo Directs Each Year
On average, Nintendo graces us with about 4 to 6 Nintendo Directs annually. However, this number can vary!
Why the range, you ask? Well, it depends on what Nintendo has cooking. Some years, when they’re bubbling over with news (think new console years or big game launches), we might see more. Other times, when they’re simmering things slowly, we get fewer.
