In May, Nintendo announced that a successor to the Nintendo Switch was on the way.
Nintendo President Shuntaro Furukawa announced that the Switch 2 was in development, but that it would not appear in the next Nintendo Direct.

This announcement not only informed people about the upcoming console, but also that there would be a Nintendo Direct in June.
The exact release date of the Nintendo Direct was announced only that it was scheduled for June.
Nintendo usually holds a Nintendo Direct showcase in June to reveal the games coming to the Nintendo Switch in the second half of the year.
As soon as it was announced, people immediately started speculating about when the showcase would be held.
While most of this is pure guesswork, one accidentally released video provided more concrete information about a date.
Innersloth, developer of the hit party game Among Us, posted an update video for the game on YouTube, which was due to be published on June 18th.
People speculated that this trailer would be released after the announcement during the Nintendo Direct.
Among Us often posts news of bigger updates during Nintendo Directs, leading people to make this connection.
The video was quickly taken down, but the damage was already done.
The now-removed trailer also says the update is now “released,” suggesting a shadow of the update during the Nintendo Direct.
Of course, while it’s confirmed that there will be an Among Us update on June 18th, that doesn’t mean it will be during the Nintendo Direct.
Nintendo has also been known to change the timing of a Direct following leaks of the date online.
