Nintendo UK Won't Livestream Tomorrow's Direct 'As a Mark of Respect' for the Late Queen - IGN
www.ign.com
In the UK, the newly announced Nintendo Direct tomorrow will, unlike other regions, not be livestreamed out of respect for the late Queen Elizabeth II. An on-demand version will be uploaded an hour later than expected.

The direct isn't delayed, and it's tomorrow, so yay.

But lul that they're just not going to air a UK version because of the Queen. I guess the brits will have to listen to an American accent tell them about their newest slop instead of a Bri'ish one.

    Wow, this is ridiculous. Worst than whatever they said about North Korea.

    I remember when they canceled a Direct after that earthquake and everyone thought they were going to add Isaac to smash bros

    Be interesting to see if the views from the UK just end up on other channels because all of this mourning stuff is just performative
