The leaves are tinged with Nintendo red with the beginning of autumn: here are all the games (and more) announced in the September Direct!

We looked forward to it a Nintendo Direct in September, and for sure the announced games they did not disappoint us at all! Among the most anticipated novelties and the most unexpected (and unexpected) comets, certainly the forty minutes of material have been able to surprise us. Of course, everything opened in the name of sobriety in the memory of the people affected by the pandemic, but in the end the broadcasts of the Big N know how to give us back a smile even in the darkest moments. We leave you below the video of the entire presentation, of course, but if you are here to make up your mind or in a hurry, here all ads!

Start in the comfort zone

Before moving on to bulleted lists for the sake of brevity, the first games of this Nintendo Direct of September are titles already announced previously. There next summer we can expect Sunbreak, a “massive expansion” of Monster Hunter Rise. In a short curtain dedicated to Mario Party Superstars, on the other hand, the Big N focused on three billboards taken from the episodes for Nintendo 64: Wooded Forest, Tropical island of Yoshi, and the night-day cycle of Land of Terror. The Mount minigames instead it will allow us to face the minigames in freedom, with seven modes. The game comes out on October 29 and pre-orders are already open.

Separate mention is required for one of the games announced in this September Nintendo Direct. After an accidental leak (as for Kirby Fighters 2) by the Japanese site of the Big N itself, it is confirmed that next spring Kirby will be back in a new adventure. Kirby and the lost land will represent something fans have always been waiting for: the character’s debut in a 3D platformer with free movement. The character has not been shown in flight, but the skills are already confirmed, as well as other cornerstones of the saga.

The next month awaits us a Nintendo Direct separate for Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and while it’s not one of the new games announced, a major comeback has been revealed. After a long wait, Bartolo’s bar (we love to repeat ourselves), The Piccionaia, will open its doors inside the Blatero museum. We wonder what else a Direct requires, but it’s nice to see that the Kyoto giant is finally starting to play with their cards exposed. It was time!

Nintendo 64 e SEGA Mega Drive they will arrive at the end of October, but in the future we will have “new details”. There is one that certainly did not escape us: after having glossed over the definitive launch date and price, the Big N showed the covers of the upcoming titles for the Nintendo 64 after the launch. Pokémon Snap it’s hard enough not to notice, but pales in comparison to Banjo-Kazooie. The new controllers the rumors alluded to were probably these.

Break Them All – Nintendo Direct September, all games announced

It comes back to talking about games with Splatoon 3, and the Nintendo Direct of September was full of details even outside those already announced. The new trailer is packed with action, despite some interruptions from the antagonists. Many characters will return, as will the mammals … or at least as they are called in the post-apocalyptic world of the game. The city of Splatville will also be the central hub from which to access The return of the Mammiferians. New weapons and lots of other good stuff give us an appointment at next year. We are almost at the end, which means …

… The final gem!

Of course, that of September 2021 would not be a Nintendo Direct if after a cornucopia of announced games there had not also been a bomb with which to close everything worthily. And the farewell formula “hit and run” of the giant of Kyoto did not disappoint us, with an assault on the pedestrian crossing of Shibuya by a demon against which the Japanese soldiers could do little. Fortunately, the protagonist of Bayonetta 3 came to solve the situation with lots of gameplay, a nice hybrid look between the designs of the first and second game and, finally, confirmation of an exit in 2022. After the arrival of a mysterious figure, Koizumi concluded the Direct by thanking us all for waiting five years from the announcement.
