Just two days before Sony releases its new PlayStation 4 console, Nintendo is hoping to grab your attention by showing off some future 3DS games.

A new Nintendo Direct, scheduled for Wednesday (also known as tomorrow) at 8 a.m. Pacific, will show off games launching for the 3DS portable system through early 2014.

While Nintendo claims that its newest video stream will focus on previously announced software, we’ve come to expect at least one surprise during its broadcasts. Last month, for example, a Nintendo Direct unveiled a new Kirby game for the 3DS. We’ll likely learn more about that title tomorrow as well as other upcoming 3DS titles like Yoshi’s New Island, Mario Golf: World Tour, and Monster Hunter 4.

We’ll cover the event tomorrow morning, so we’ll let you know if anything surprising happens.
