Two Nintendo Directs 8–9 Sep 2026: Zelda and full showcase

Nintendo has announced two Nintendo Direct presentations on back-to-back days in mid-September: first a show dedicated to The Legend of Zelda’s 40th anniversary, then a general broadcast focused on Nintendo Switch 2 games coming this winter.

This piece stays short because the announcement does: dates, runtime, and where to watch. We’ll update once both streams are over.

Schedule

UK time: both start at 3:00 p.m. BST (7:00 a.m. PT / 10:00 a.m. ET). Also on Nintendo.com.

Where to watch

Nintendo has already published the 9 September broadcast on YouTube:

The 8 September Zelda special typically goes live on the same channels (YouTube and the official site) on the day.

Why it matters

The Zelda Direct should nail down the Ocarina of Time remake for Switch 2, which has been on the release calendar for months without a date or extended gameplay.
