I think it means:
our development - 1st party games
& publishing partners - 3rd party games
They just worded it very weirdly
I'd be really happy if we got BOTW2 news, but that's highly unlikely
I'm just glad we're getting something at least
That could be one way to interpret it but the fact they call it “Partner Showcase” is bugging the heck out of me 🙄 No one knows what it means, but it’s provocative.

I just woke up, didn't even see the partner stuff 
Still hype for any news, but I really wish it's not just 3rd party games tbh

My take from this tweet is "dont get your hopes up" lol.
Hope I'm proven wrong.
I rarely rant but let me vent a bit: I was feeling confident about the date of their next presentation (7.20.2020), but now that it's announced as a "Partners Showcase" I'm even more agitated than I was when we were completely in the dark. I'd rather stay in the dark than to have a false glimmer of hope be crushed. Partner Showcase sounds like trash to me. A real Direct is way overdue and this is what we get, while other gaming companies and developers are having presentations all throughout the summer? Sony announced a whole doggone console and several big titles for it just a few weeks ago, and Xbox is later this week. I don't care about no measly 10 minutes of previously announced third-party updates Nintendo. I want new announcements and first-party updates.
Would be better for Nintendo to just keep quiet until they have something beefier to show us. In this Partner Showcase there better be some first party tease or announcement of when the next ACTUAL Direct can be expected.
It's the first time they announce a presentation and it makes me worried and pissed instead of excited. Big L. They better turn this one around. Even a 10 second BotW 2 teaser would ease my mind. Give me something today Nintendo

No one even got the Switch for the "third party games" anyways, we want the Nintendo exclusives.
Hopefully this isnt a huge disappointment but im keeping my expectations way too low
Nintendo at risk tbh
everybody saving $$ for next gen and they know it so they wont bother to fight for the holiday W
even Mario remasters arent enough, which are still only rumours..
when 2021 is here they'll have to pray BOTW2 and MP4 can hold up with so much to be compared to
bless y'all for keeping the thread alive and thriving i been wild busy getting acclimated in japan from my job transfer, i slick wish i could pass ownership to Chilla while i get my things together in order just wanted to let y'all know i appreciate yall in advance for understanding.
u and Chilla the best dont worry
IT MIGHT NOT JUST BE 3RD PARTY
Leaker Kelios who leaked the direct, the date, the time of the announcement, and the time of the direct is saying this:

only prev announced Nintendo published games are BOTW2, MP4 and NPS (new pokemon snap)
I am not expecting it but a Smash character should be announced if it is a 3rd party character
I am not expecting it but a Smash character should be announced if it is a 3rd party character
this is true
except the DLC is still "published by Nintendo" but who knows
first 2 minutes for f***ing crypt of the necrodancer 
this really shouldn't have been a direct man
