The future of the Nintendo Direct series was somewhat unknown following the passing of Nintendo's President, and the host of Direct, Satoru Iwata. The show took a brief hiatus as the company properly grieved, restructured and determined who would, if anyone, become the new host. On September 15th we learned that they'd continue, though no details had emerged as to when or who would take up the mantle of the host.
For this show we're promised news about the Wii U and 3DS specifically, and Nintendo is insistent that there will be nothing shown or said about the NX console or even their mobile ventures.
