The most recent Nintendo Direct was a blockbuster event packed with several exciting announcements, and now all of them are on display in a recently-released overview graphic by Nintendo. Fans all from around the world tuned into the 50-minute-long livestream presentation on Wednesday, which revealed some of Nintendo’s upcoming content for the Switch in 2021.
The many new games announced at the Nintendo Direct event included everything from first-party prospects like Mario Golf: Super Rush and Splatoon 3 to licensed titles like DC Super Hero Girls: Teen Powered and Star Wars: Hunters. There was also plenty of upcoming remasters on display, like an HD re-release of The Legend Of Zelda: Skyward Sword and a Switch port of Team Ninja’s Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection, as well as planned DLC content for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It was a jam-packed event all around, and now Nintendo is showing off all that their latest Direct showcase had to offer in an eye-catching promotional image as per the company’s typical post-Direct tradition.
Nintendo released a large infographic for the latest Nintendo Direct earlier today on the Nintendo Of America Twitter page. This poster-style image contains the logos to every single announcement made during Wednesday’s festivities - be they a full game or added content for an already-released title, with 30 in total - all set against a solid white background and featuring a thin red “Nintendo Direct” banner across the top. It can all be seen in all of its glory in Nintendo of America's tweet below:
Despite shipping complications brought on by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and legal trouble surrounding the Switch's Joy-Con controller, Nintendo enjoyed a solid year in 2020 thanks to new releases like Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Calamity, along with continued support from previously launched successes like Pokémon: Sword And Shield. Nintendo is also set to celebrate many milestone anniversaries this year, as the aforementioned Pokémon will be turning 25, The Legend Of Zelda will celebrate its 35th anniversary, and Donkey Kong will reach a landmark 40 years in 2021.
On top of these momentous celebrations, it seems Nintendo has exciting plans for this upcoming year, as evidenced by Wednesday’s impressive Nintendo Direct showcase. Seeing all of these logos in one image really punctuates just how big this week’s event was, and is a nice visual of all of the promising games and additional content Nintendo fans have to look forward to in 2021.
