Nintendo has announced two streams that will take place on Tuesday, August 26th.
Kicking off at 10am, the 40-minute livestream will begin with an Indie World presentation followed by a Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase. As the name suggests, the former show will focus on indie games coming to the Nintendo Switch, while the latter is all about upcoming third-party Switch titles. They’ll both stream on YouTube.
Join us tomorrow, August 27 at 7am PT, for an #IndieWorld Showcase followed by a #NintendoDirect Partner Showcase! The livestream, featuring both presentations back-to-back, will be roughly 40 minutes in total.

Therefore, don’t expect any first-party games in the vein of Mario or Zelda. Nintendo also confirmed that there will be no mention of the Switch successor console during either presentation.
The last Partner Showcase was held in February and featured games like Arranger, Xbox’s Grounded and Pentiment, the Star Wars: Battlefront Collection and Endless Ocean: Luminous. The most recent Indie World presentation took place in April and included the likes of Little Kitty, Big City, Lorelei and the Laser Eyes and SteamWorld Heist II.
What are you hoping to see from the double Indie World and Partner Showcase stream? Let us know in the comments.
