Nintendo is kicking off the new year with an unusual abundance of news, officially announcing the upcoming date for their next Nintendo Direct presentation. Fans should prepare for a second major showcase this week, scheduled for this Thursday, January 29. This follows closely behind the January 25 broadcast, which dedicated its focus to revealing new details surrounding *The Super Mario Galaxy Movie*.
This immediate follow-up event is designated as the *Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream Direct*. The presentation is set to air on January 29 at 6 AM PT / 9 AM ET. For those counting on deep dives into the anticipated Switch title, the broadcast is scheduled to run for about 20 minutes, promising to unveil “more info” on the quirky life-simulation experience heading to the hybrid console.
Getting two dedicated Directs within a single seven-day window is certainly notable for Nintendo fans. Anyone looking to catch the news live can tune in via the usual digital outlets. The stream will be hosted across popular platforms like YouTube and Twitch, alongside availability through the dedicated Nintendo Today mobile app.
