POKEMON Direct Airing in the Early Morning
A Pokemon-themed Nintendo Direct will be airing tonight in Japan at 8pm. Yes, that means it will be here in the states at 4am PDT. You can watch it--live or archived--here at Nintendo Direct.
If you're interested in the rate that Nintendo has been revealing information about upcoming Pokemon games, Reddit user menace64 has compiled an interesting chart:
What I like about this chart is that it shows that Nintendo has been more engaged with its fans with this upcoming generation of games. There have been fewer leaks and more legitimate reveals. These announcements have been regular, with almost a monthly schedule. And not only have these Pokemon been revealed, but we've seen a lot of gameplay footage. Nintendo has been doing a great job this time around at building hype for their upcoming Pokemon games.
