Update 2: Bumped to the top again. The Nintendo Direct has now been confirmed for Japan, and it’s airing at the same time. Nintendo says it will focus on Wii U and 3DS games launching by the end of next spring. Morimoto, who hosted the presentation at the end of May, will lead the way on this one as well.

Update: No real surprise here, but the North American page states: “Please note that the presentation will not feature any updates on NX and mobile.”

Nintendo Direct is making a triumphant return later this week. Today, Nintendo announced that the next broadcast is set for Thursday. The presentation will cover upcoming Wii U and 3DS games.

Satoru Shibata will host the European presentation. It’s unclear who will lead the North American version, though Reggie Fils-Aime and/or Bill Trinen are likely candidates.

Here’s when the new Nintendo Direct will air:

– 2 PM PT
– 5 PM ET
– 10 PM in the UK
– 11 PM in Europe
