The drought of official Nintendo news might be making a few fans more desperate and gullible than ever.
Recently, several lookalike accounts have been impersonating Nintendo of America – fooling others with false Nintendo Direct announcements. One such example from is below, which attempts to ride high on rumors about a 10 January Direct. Whether ironically or not, the tweet has already garnered thousands of shares at the time of writing.
It’s not hard to see why hundreds fell for the falsehood. Only attentive observers will notice the suspiciously misspelled “@NintendoAemrica” and the lack of a verification tick on the account.
Hopefully Nintendo will be making its own official Direct announcement soon – so that fans won’t have to endure this kind of deception any longer.
