I've had a tough time with getting into Animal Crossing (I have New Leaf and the DS game, but I haven't played much of them beyond getting the Demon King Ganon (and a few others) as villagers in my town for New Leaf, and I mainly play the Gamecube version for the free NES games), but I'll watch the Direct and see what's being added to Animal Crossing. (probably won't be able to watch it live, though, since I volunteer that day)
Besides, regardless of how I feel about the Direct after the fact, we're also getting Devil May Cry 3, a bunch of Double Dragon and River City Ransom games, and Sonic 2 on the Switch that day, so it'll still be good for me as far as Nintendo stuff is concerned.
