Nintendo Direct for today February 9: how and where to watch, what time, duration of the event and what to expect
Nintendo has announced that today, February 9, they will offer a new Nintendo Direct focused on game information for the Nintendo Switch during 2022.
Nintendo has confirmed that a new Nintendo Direct focusing on information about Nintendo Switch games coming in the first half of 2022 will be broadcast on Wednesday, February 9 at 5:00pm EST / 2:00pm PST.
Where and how to watch the Nintendo Direct?
The event will last 40 minutes, a usual time for these presentations. Although they have mentioned that it will focus on games for the first half of 2022, it cannot be ruled out that there will be some surprises beyond this semester. It would not be the first time that titles are shown beyond the previously indicated period, as it has happened with other Direct in the past. You can watch the stream here from Nintendo's YouTube channel:

Nintendo games that await us in the first half of the year
After the release of Pokémon Legends Arceus, Nintendo expects to release some games for these first months that like these:
- Assassin's Creed: The Ezio Collection - February 15
- Edge of Eternity - February 22
- Project Triangle - March 4
- Chocobo GP - March 10
- Rune Factory 5 - March 22
- Kirby and the Forgotten Land - March 25
- 15 Sentinels: Aegis Rim - April 12
In addition to these names, there are also other multiplatform launch games planned for the console, such as LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, Phantom Omnia, Far: Changing Tides, Monark and many others. Learn about these and other releases in our 2022 video games calendar.
The big question about this Nintendo Direct is whether we will have news about the release date of three of the most anticipated names of Switch: the sequel to Breath of the Wild, Bayonetta 3 and Splatoon 3, all dated this 2022. And, of course, think if there will be news of other sagas that are not planned, games for Nintendo Switch Online and much more. In any case, this afternoon we will know for sure.
