Two Directs will be coming the first week of June.

I'm not up for sharing my information, but I have a friend who works at Nintendo of America (I dont know how their job works) and frequently travels to the Japanese headquarters (not recently for obvious reasons) for companies such as TPCI (Pokemon company) and SquareEnix.

Anyways, a lot of games will be revealed throughout the Summer, but they didn't bother to tell me the rest.

The first showcase will be on June 2nd, and it will be a presentation on the ARMS fighter, Springman. The cool thing was, my friend had the trailer pulled up on their flash drive, so I got to see it, provided he said I can't talk about it (I'm a really bad friend).

The trailer actually starts with Little Mac having a rematch with Ken. This time, Little Mac sends Ken crashing into the stage lights above, making him the victor. Wario will then come in as a joke, challenging Mac, where he sends Wario flying out of the building and to a faraway island.

I dont know what its called, but Wario lands in the stadium of the ARMS grand prix finale. As soon as he lands, we see Hedlok get sent flying, and we see the crowd cheering for Springman. The rest is history. A giant silhouette appears from behind Springman, and the trailer ends.

There were some words said, but the video he had didn't have sound.

I was told that Sakurai had prerecorded the demonstration video before hand, and that he planned to surprise launch Springman the same day.

The info doesn't stop here. The other Direct I was talking about is supposed to be a Pokemon Direct scheduled the day after (June 3).

At the end of the Smash showcase, Sakurai will encourage viewers to watch the Pokemon Direct. Don't me on this, but I'm pretty sure Mii costumes will get revealed too.
