One video, two videos, three videos, four.

Nintendo of America has announced their broadcasting schedule for E3 2013, with videos planned throughout the day on June 11.

Beginning at 10am EDT/7am PDT, Nintendo will air their main presentation, which is titled "Nintendo Direct @E3." Separate Nintendo Direct broadcasts for the European and Japanese audiences will be aired simultaneously, at 3pm BST and 11pm JST, respectively.

After this, at 3pm EDT/12pm PDT, Nintendo will present a series of interviews with numerous game developers. This will then be followed by the Wii U Software Showcase and Recap Video, which airs at 4pm EDT/1pm PDT.

Finally, at 10pm EDT/7pm PDT, a Day 1 Wrap-Up video is scheduled. Nintendo has also stated that their Facebook and Twitter pages will be updated with the latest news as it is unveiled in these presentations.

So the one at 4 PM sounds like it's just a recap of the Nintendo Direct from the morning?  That doesn't make any sense.  Either way, I'll be plopped in front of my television for all of them!

Hopefully it will be like other times and they'll more in depth on portions of it and then just recap what they can't go into more, aka not in a playable form.

It will be a recap of the media event that takes place right before the show floor opens.

Basically, there will be a short presentation by Reggie and Miyamoto, and then we get to play their games for an hour before the floor opens.

So, here's something that I may have missed in all the discussions about Nintendo's actual presence at E3.  Can we assume that the traditional round table with Miyamoto has been axed entirely?  (I'm assuming, perhaps incorrectly, that he will not be there at the show.  I know he's supposed to have transitioned to a new role, anyway.)  Or could something like it take shape in another form e.g. a video telecon with questions being asked via twitter?

Reading about the roundtable was always one of my favorite parts of E3.

Miyamoto and Reggie are hosting the media event before E3 opens, so Miyamoto will be there.

However, the Roundtable this year is all about Pokemon X and Y, so it's the first time... ever... you get Junichi Masuda instead.
