Amazon lists 18 unannounced Nintendo Switch game SKU's (TBA at Nintendo Direct???)

None, the prices are also correct it appears. The Nintendo games are 59.99. There appear to be three special editions at 99.99, and I'm assuming the 75-79 are either big third party games with Switch cartridge tax or semi special editions.
Entirely possible they've decided to do annual events in January though, no?
Think we would have heard about it by now. Press needs warning to fly out and stuff.
We know about the switch reveal thing like 3 months out IIRC.
I was a little bummed out seeing no Nintendo games in the "Upcoming" section of the E-shop.
Hope to fill it up with new stuff in January.

Was a January direct confirmed? If so, do we know when in January it's supposed to be? Probably at the end of the month?
Right, that's true.
Probably a Direct then.
With 18 $60 game announcements. Nice.
Well project octopath will finally get a name.
I could only see Nintendo focusing on exclusives so I doubt they have more than 1 on top of what we know for 3rd parties.

No, but traditionally there is a history of Nintendo doing January Directs, and a January Direct was leaked by multiple sources. It will probably be in the second or third week of January.
anything's possible, but there's no reason to believe everything

I'm assuming the listing maker at Amazon did this as a joke. None of them are 60.
[Edit] wrong about price. It's simply that few are that low.

I know it's the longest of shots, but I just hope we hear about another Rhythm Heaven some time soon.
Some could be SKU of already announced 3rd party games like Valkyria Chronicles 4, DQXI etc.
I always find it funny that Amazon is worth hundreds of billions of dollars, but they've still got these odd legacy systems at the core of their business that require that they set up public placeholder listings if they want to add new products to coincide with some external announcement.
Very true. Actually I hope they stick to Directs. Don't like their live pressers much.
I know, I was being facetious :P
At the very least there are 18 games that are getting some form of retail release (even if only download codes)
Weird prices on the placeholders...
I need this direct asap, please. Do we have an actual idea of the date, or did that EA leak just say "January."

Hell yeah, you know it!

I guess this means we should be hearing about the January Direct soon-ish?
13 brand new game announcements is a lot for Nintendo, even for a E3.
FUCK YEAH!
Oh also I think one of them finally will be Hollow Knight.
18 is a lot... I'm skeptical that these will be anything other than late ports and/or indie games, but we'll see I guess.
I'd rather them come out with a Bluetooth GameCube controller. I don't want have to keep my Switch docked in order to play with a GC controller.
Nintendo will announce 18 games. The number is important.
DQXI Switch hasn't even been revealed for Japan, I would be genuinely surprised if the western version is announced/shown any time soon.
You're right about there being a couple at 60.
I missed it on my 1st look. Now there is something worth discussing here because most of them are priced highly.
Either we have multiple skews and/or we're getting some games using 32 and 64 gb carts.
I mean, if we're taking this at face value, I'm pretty sure "18 retail games announced at one Direct" would be far and away the most we've got at any event so far for the platform. Hell, it seems like there's hardly 18 retail switch games out all together at this point.
Oh shit, I didn't think about the $99.99 placeholders being special editions. I'm seeing 4 on my Amazon. All first party, perhaps? This bodes extremely well for my hype.
