A new Nintendo Direct livestream has been announced for June 9, making an already busy month of gaming showcases even busier.
Nintendo has held a June Direct showcase every year since 2012, and it’s not breaking that run in 2026. The content of each broadcast varies, as some years have been game-specific livestreams–like last year’s Donkey Kong Bananza showcase–while older June Directs tied into E3 week and provided a broader overview of what to expect from Nintendo for the rest of the year.
This month also marks the first anniversary of the Switch 2 console, which is Nintendo’s fastest-selling console of all time and has reached 19.86 million sales as of March 31, 2026.
The original Switch isn’t doing too badly either and is Nintendo’s best-selling console of all time with 155.92 million consoles sold.
This story is developing.
