"possibly"
not expecting much. maybe it will just be a press release without any video/footage and the "real" unveil comes later.

Hmm, he deleted the tweet. Should I request a thread lock for now?

People have got to learn not to say stuff flippantly haha. Era goes absolutely crazy over the smallest stuff, myself included.

    I don't know for sure it's tonight. If I was reporting something that I knew to be true I wouldn't say "possibly." All I know for a fact is that it's happening and getting announced soon.

    Nintendo usually announces directs beforehand though.

    I mean you're assuming it's a direct. I think it's very possible they make this announcement and announce their e3 plans simultaneously. Basically get the basic details out there now so they have more time to cover the games in the actual e3 event

    So the takeaway should probably be expect a surprise announcement, not necessarily expect it tonight?

    Honestly has Nintendo ever not just dropped revision announcements out of nowhere? I feel like dropping a trailer randomly is almost always they're MO. I think maybe they did the New 3DS in a direct, but that's all I can think of

    Makes a lot of sense. The hype can be very easy to get swept into. Sorry we're all crazy haha. Thanks Jason!

    I don't mean to be a Debbie Downer but I feel like it's going to be a disappointing "upgrade"

    I just can't see them really wowing us with this one

    Yes. The Switch Lite was announced on a random day at 14:09 CEST. The 3DS XL was announced about 2 weeks after E3 while they were denying XL rumours at E3. The 2DS was announced completely out of the blue etc.
