It's a lighter year for Nintendo, but we're still keeping busy...and chiming in on the other major E3 news.
http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/sitenews/42819/nintendo-world-report-e3-streaming-schedule
DAY 1 IS LIVE NOW! CHECK IT OUT!
We've alluded to it in spots the past month, but we're going to try to do something goofy for E3 this year with our staff that's staying home. While our intrepid travelers will be heading off to LA to play Zelda and check out the 10ish other games on Wii U/3DS from third parties, our home team will mostly be twiddling our thumbs. OR WILL THEY.
I mean, we will, we'll just be twiddling our thumbs live on YouTube/Google Hangouts.
All times are mostly estimates. We'll try to keep it updated as much as possible.
Sunday June 12
12:45 p.m. PT/3:45 p.m. ET - E3 Pre-Show
We kick things off with some general E3 thoughts and warm up for the EA press conference.
1 p.m. PT/4 p.m. ET - EA Press Conference
We'll talk over EA's big announcements at their press conference. Guaranteed to have at least one "unprecedented partnership" joke.
2 p.m. PT/5 p.m. ET (following EA) - Nintendo E3 Memories
A motley crew of NWR staff look back at Nintendo over the years at E3, with moments ranging from Ravi Drums to Robot Chicken fireballing a game journalist in the face.
3 p.m. PT/6 p.m. ET - Tokyo Mirage Sessions with Neal
Neal will stream an hour from Nintendo's upcoming Wii U game.
4 p.m. PT/7 p.m. ET - Interview with Lewis Pugh (developer of Twisted Fusion; RFN guest)
We'll talk with Lewis about Twisted Fusion and E3.
5 p.m. PT/8 p.m. ET - Top 15 Game Boy Advance Game Discussion
Hopefully you sent in your nominations (if you're $5+), because we're going to take the list 50+ games and whittle it down to a group of 15 games that we (as a collective Patron/staff entity) will rank.
7 p.m. PT/10 p.m. ET - Bethesda Press Conference
Will there be a Skyrim remaster? Prey 2? A multi-million dollar Elder Scrolls Online bribe? I don't know. Let's find out.
9 p.m. PT/Midnight ET (ish) - World Exclusive of a Wii U eShop Game
It'll be crazy late if you're on the east coast, but we'll be doing something cool.
Monday June 13
9:30 a.m. PT/12:30 p.m. ET - Microsoft Press Conference
We'll be talking over Microsoft's press conference, hoping for more stuff like Rare Replay.
1 p.m. PT/4 p.m. ET - Ubisoft Press Conference
We'll try to guess which game will be halfheartedly ported to NX next year during Ubisoft's press conference. And hey - maybe there will be a Just Dance game or something. That's on Wii U.
6 p.m. PT/9 p.m. ET - Sony Press Conference
Will this be as ridiculous as last year's Sony show? Probably not, but we'll try to see Sony can bowl folks over again.
8 p.m. PT/11 p.m. ET - Interview with Bruno Laverny (developer at Too Kind Studios, working on Pankapu the Dreamkeeper)
We'll talk to Bruno about his game and the day's events.
9 p.m. PT/Midnight ET - Super Mario RPG or Final Fantasy VI? And Other Game Streams?
Feeling nostalgic for Square as they show off more about Final Fantasy XV this night, Neal will kick off a stream of Super Mario RPG or some other SNES RPG (and maybe dabble with some other stuff).
Tuesday June 14
6 a.m. PT/9 a.m. ET (ish) - Skyward Sword Stream
Neal will wake up and start streaming Skyward Sword up until we finally see what Link's next major adventure is all about.
9 a.m. PT/12 p.m. ET - Nintendo Treehouse Live
Join us as we watch Nintendo unveil Pokemon Sun & Moon gameplay and the new Zelda game!
After Treehouse Live - Streams, Chats, and Streams
Throughout Tuesday, we'll stream games, have chats about the show, and more!
8 p.m. PT/11 p.m. ET - Live Chat with E3 Team
We'll pull in folks who played Zelda at E3 and pick their brain about Nintendo's latest game and the vibe of the show.
Some other things worth noting about E3: Nintendo News Report will happen on Tuesday or Wednesday (or both?). Radio Free Nintendo will record a live show on Wednesday June 15 at 9 p.m. ET
*Note* Schedule might change, but most of the stuff here is mostly set in stone (unless technical difficulties hit)
