If you’d like to keep track of yet another stream related to Switch, you may want to keep an eye on what Famitsu is planning tomorrow. Several hours after the Nintendo Switch Presentation 2017, the Japanese magazine will be hosting its own event for about an hour.

It’ll take place at the following times:

– 4 AM PT
– 7 AM ET
– 12 PM in the UK
– 1 PM in Europe

I can’t really say how noteworthy this will be, but I figured we should mention it in passing. It will be a report on the Nintendo Switch Presentation 2017, so it could just be a few folks talking about what was shown. We’ll find out soon.
