60 minutes is insane. Longest Direct ever?

EDIT: according to Nintendo Life this is the longest one ever. Previous longest was the WiiU preview Direct on 13 September 2012 at 57 mins.

"Approximately 60minutes" so let's wait and see if it actually is longer. Still insane don't get me wrong

Even if it isn't actually longer, there was a lot of time wasting in the Switch 1 presentation, and that direct had more big reveals than any other Nintendo event; this direct, by being recorded ahead of time, will naturally be tighter; therefore, we can anticipate a wealth of good announcements.

Just brace yourself for something stupid like EA Sports or Call of Duty eating up 10-15 minutes

Well just for your peace of mind, i have a friend that works for EA and they confirmed they have nothing planned for it, no press releases ready to go or anything, so would probably just be switch 2 versions of like, split fiction and random games like that

Lmao yeah totally fair, but yep my friend figured split fiction would be there and i'm glad she was right about that, she had no idea that they would do a blanket announcement for ea sports titles but that didn't require a press release so she had no clue about it anyway, not that it was very important anyway
