8 games expected for tomorrow's Nintendo Direct

Nintendo's new president Tatsumi Kimishima announced two weeks ago that the company is about to resume the Nintendo Direct streams, first led and made popular by the late Satoru Iwata. The next Nintendo Direct has now been confirmed as streaming tomorrow, November 12, 10:00 PM GMT/23:00 CET.

The European presentation will once again be held by Satoru Shibata, president of Nintendo of Europe, while there's a parallel American presentation held by Reggie Fils-Aime, Nintendo of America. Now, one interesting fact to check would be whether there will be a third Japanese video, and if so, who will replace Iwata. Kimishima himself? Miyamoto?

But perhaps more than this, gamers are interested in new games and announcements. While there's little to no chance of Nintendo's new hardware Project NX (a new, fresh concept different to both Wii U and 3DS) being mentioned tomorrow as the company underlines they're focussing on "upcoming Wii U and 3DS releases", fans should expect at least one nice surprise to keep the excitement up - that's what this comeback demands. Now, what could that be? There's just a few games announced for Q1-Q2 so far, so there's room for very interesting options on both platforms. In the potential winter-spring lineup, and with Zelda Wii U still far away, here's eight games that we expect to see tomorrow - now leave your bets on your wished announcements below:

Wii U

• Mario Tennis Ultra Smash
• Xenoblade Chronicles X
• Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival
• Star Fox Zero

Nintendo 3DS

• Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam Bros.
• Hyrule Warriors Legends
• Fire Emblem Fates
• Yo-kai Watch
