This Direct will be hosted by none other than Masahiro Sakurai himself, the infamous director of the popular Smash series. This is to be the final showcase before the game launches on December 7, so it will likely clear up most of the rumors that have been circulating online over the past few weeks.
It is also noteworthy to mention that despite there being 4o minutes of Super Smash Bros Ultimate alone, there will be a post-show Nintendo Treehouse: Live presentation, too. This Nintendo Direct is shaping up to be pretty huge as the gaming giant approaches the releases of Pokemon Let’s Go and Super Smash Bros Ultimate in the coming months.
In fact, the Nintendo of America Twitter account posted details of other games that would be making an appearance, too:
