Nintendo will not hold a live press conference at E3 2014 once again, opting instead to stream a "Digital Event" online.

The event will be available to watch on Tuesday June 10 at 9am PT / 12pm ET / 5pm GMT and will apparently "reveal and provide further detail about the gaming experiences on the way for Nintendo platforms in 2014 and beyond."

That's not it for Nintendo's E3 plans however: a Super Smash. Bros. Invitational Tournament is set to take place at the conference for top-ranked players that will be streamed online. Alongside this the "Nintendo Treehouse: Live @ E3" will stream in-depth game demos during all hours of the E3 show, hosted by the company's Product Department.

It's the second year on the trot the company has decided to shun the traditional press conference model used by other big game companies including Sony, Microsoft and Ubisoft. Last year saw a special Nintendo Direct appear instead; it's unclear if the "Digital Event" phrasing used here means we should expect something slightly bigger.

Re: Nintendo E3 Play Event

I take it the direct will be as underwhelming as last year.

holy shit, that Mega64 video
 
Re: Nintendo E3 Play Event

@video, coming off of the Tomodachi Life direct (which was gold imo), the Fils-a-Mech felt sorta forced. Thank goodness for press releases.

With that video and Twitter takeover, it's seems that they're really trying hard to sell this one.

I mean this looks interesting, but once again the media will report that Nintendo has 'skipped' E3 2014 in favour of their own thing and it'll probably flop again in some eyes, which just sucks. (edit- wow that didn't take long)

The Smash Bros. event and promotions seem really enticing (shame that we probably won't get them down under tho) and I can't wait to see what (admittedly predictable) things the Treehouse Conference and Digital Event will showcase. Even though they'll be pre-recorded, I won't be watching the stream 'live' anyway since it starts at 2AM over here.

but yeah e3 hype woo - http://e3.nintendo.com/

New Zelda's a total given. The only thing you shouldn't be expecting is Urban Champion 2.

I should make a list of everything not to be confirmed with a 99% certainty just for giggles. Here's my start:
-Mother 3 on VC with official translation into English.
-Reboot of pretty much any series.
-Wario Land 5
-*insert other impossible things here*

Oh, also, I hope for an announcement of a Kirby U game. IDK if there will be one considering that another Kirby game just came out, or is about to.

Fils-a-Mech confirmed for SSB4
 
Re: Nintendo E3 Play Event

i would say that, but considering that it's right in the middle of a school week... yeah, there's no way my parents would let me stay up till 3am or whatever
 
Re: Nintendo E3 Play Event

Do it secretly.
 
Re: Nintendo E3 Play Event

i literally can't
my computer has parental control software installed which, among other things, blocks any use of internet from 9:30 PM onwards, until like 6AM the next day
 
Re: Nintendo E3 Play Event

That is unfortunate. Maybe you should get into IT so that you can disable the software without them being aware of it
 
Re: Nintendo E3 Play Event

I liked the video. A lot of Skyward Sword music.
