Multiple announcements suggest a surprise Nintendo Direct may be inbound

The potential Nintendo Direct may focus on a range of Indie titles.

Nintendo DirectTwitter is a-flutter this morning with multiple indie developers and publisher accounts tweeting about their respective announcements coming later today. With the news all landing at the exact same time (14:00 CEST), could it indicate a surprise Nintendo Direct?

The following twitter accounts have all independently stated that an announcement (regarding their games) will be made at 14:00 CEST today:

Adding more fuel to the flame, last year’s Nintendo Switch Nindies (Summer) Showcase aired on August 30th 2017, a date which is extremely close to today’s potential stream. If that wasn’t enough to garner your interest, then Nintendo focused news outlet “Nintendo Life” also seem to be throwing their hat into the ring – suggesting that “close sources” have tipped them off about the upcoming presentation.

It certainly seems like Gamescom may be kicking off early and we look forward to seeing what other news is in store over the next week. In the meantime, we’ll be keeping an eye out for an official announcement from Nintendo.

Update:  A Nintendo Switch Indie Highlights video was announced.
