February 2024 Nintendo Direct Speculation and Anticipation

Nintendo's pattern of scheduling Directs around this time has lent credibility to the rumors, though the exact content of the presentation is anyone's guess.

With Nintendo's history of hosting a Direct in February, this news doesn't come as a complete shock. However, the specifics of what the presentation will cover remain shrouded in mystery, leaving fans eagerly anticipating any potential leaks. As of now, Nintendo has yet to confirm the existence of the Direct, leaving the gaming community on the edge of their seats.

Billbil-kun's Past Rumors

Billbil-Kun has been known to be a relatively credible source in the past when it comes to Nintendo leaks. In August of 2023, they noted the potential for a red, Mario-themed special edition Nintendo Switch to release, coinciding with the Mario Wonder Direct Event. Shortly thereafter, they were proven correct, with the special edition Nintendo Switch retailing later last year.

However, not everything comes to light. They also made note of a potential Mario Kart-themed special edition Nintendo Switch bundle that was supposed to retail in Q4 2023, which never surfaced.
