The Rumors Were True: Super Nintendo Direct Announced

November 11, 2024 by Andrew McKay

Between strange leaks and sneaky tweets. Who knows what Nintendo has in store for us?

Three days ago rumours broke from SamusHunter on Twitter and Reddit that a big announcement was coming from Nintendo. The announcement was supposedly in relation to Donkey Kong and Zelda. However, Samus Hunter had to stipulate that their obscure Tweet was in fact more of a riddle than a direct reference to what was being announced. The original and subsequent tweets are below.

I'll give you another hint for now: the Zelda picture is not a hint for a Zelda game. The picture is like a riddle for the title in question look at all the elements in that screen.

As you can see, it’s a tad obscure. However, after three days, Nintendo announced on Twitter that there would be a Super Nintendo Direct later today regarding Super Nintendo World in Japan. We know that it will be regarding Donkey Kong Country. But It could be anything from a limited-time event, a unique ride, or something a little more wacky. Nintendo’s announcement tweet is below:

Tune in on 11/11 at 2 p.m. PT for a SUPER NINTENDO WORLD Direct livestream! The stream will be roughly 10 minutes and showcase Donkey Kong Country of #SuperNintendoWorld at Universal Studios Japan. No game information will be featured. #NintendoDirect

There had been speculation on Reddit that a new area of the park might be opening. But that was only speculation. I’m sure there are disappointed fans who were hoping the rumours might allude to gaming announcements or the release date of the Switch 2. But it seems that those sorts of updates are still a long way off. Never mind the Hollow Knight announcements that fans keep hoping Nintendo might bring to us. This is probably why Nintendo specified that no games were going to be announced in this Super Nintendo Direct.
