The first Western 3rd party announcement for Wii U of the show.

Just Dance 2016 has been announced for the Wii U and Wii today at Ubisoft's E3 press conference.

Coming to "all motion consoles" this fall, the game was demonstrated through a live musical performance by Jason Derulo, and will feature the ability to use a smartphone as an alternate controller for the game.

Check out their demos, then some new announcements!

Update: A previous version of the article mistakenly credited Dawn Bennett as the developer. Bennett is a voice actress in the game, the game is actually developed by the team at Galaxy Trail. We apologize for the confusion.

Some indie titles have had new updates ahead of E3, including a couple in the Nindie E3 demo program.

Nine games, one week to download them, discounts after launch. UPDATE: Europe gets it as well!

Nintendo and several independent developers have teamed up to provide demos of indie games during E3.

The demos will be available to download for one week starting today (June 15) and are already on the eShop. Downloading the demos will give the same NNID 15% off the games when the final product launches.

A quick name change and we're good to go.

During the grand finals of the Nintendo World Championship, the game previously known as Mario Maker received its final title.

Now known as Super Mario Maker, the finals showed off a full set of levels from the Nintendo Treehouse in the game's four main disciplines: Super Mario Bros, Super Mario Bros 3, Super Mario World and New Super Mario U.

The winner of this bout, and NEW Nintendo World Champion...

For the first time since 1990, someone wears the crown of the Nintendo World Champion.

John "John Numbers" Goldberg triumphed over a series of invited guests and national qualifiers to become the champion, defeating Cosmo Walker in the final round of head-to-head Super Mario Maker.

The tournament format saw 16 players compete in a serious of elimination challenges leading up to the grand final.

Soccer in space with mechs.

The 2nd round of the Nintendo World Championships featured the debut of a new 3DS game called Blast Ball.

The game features 3v3 multiplayer where each player is in a mech that uses guns to roll a ball into the goal. Each match in the championships was first to 3 goals, with a goal that gets smaller each time someone scores into it.

This is not a drill.

Shigesato Itoi appeared before the Nintendo World Championships to announce that Mother 1 would come to the Virtual Console as Earthbound Beginnings at 9pm ET / 6pm PT.

Released twenty years after Earthbound on SNES, the game was originally released in 1989 in Japan and was translated for release in North America but was never released before outside of Japan.

And what would that mean for Happy Home Designer?

An email from Nintendo Spain may have leaked a couple of Amiibo lines coming soon.

The email shows a Pixel Mario, four Animal Crossing Amiibo including K.K. Slider and Isabelle as well as the Happy Home Designer cards.

We'll be watching during E3 to see if this could lead to another Animal Crossing game aside from Happy Home Designer.

Lucas gets upstaged on his release date. Typical.

The Smash Bros live stream happened today (June 14), and if you missed any of it, we've got the full recap for you.

Here Comes the New Challengers!

The update spent some time going over Lucas, detailing his availability right now. But the big deals were the announcement of returning champion Roy and newcomer Ryu who were previously found in the game data.

Here's the lowdown on Nintendo World Report's E3 2015 plans.

Are these the next two combatants to enter the 3DS and Wii U games?

A series of videos and screenshots have emerged featuring Ryu (Street Fighter) and Roy (Fire Emblem) as the next set of DLC characters for the 3DS and Wii U iterations of Super Smash Bros.

Early this morning, someone on the Super Smash Bros. Reddit posted videos of what appears to be Roy and Ryu's... Read more...

The agency that reported Gold and Silver Mario has struck with a lot of non-Fire Emblem unicorns.

It appears we now have confirmation that some of the rare Amiibo have been reprinted as recently as last month.

First found by @AmiiboNews, Nintendo's CSPIA listings page was updated with new printings of some Amiibo effective June 3. The documents, such as the one pictured for Ness, show reprints in May 2015.

And you thought the only bombs were coming at E3? Guess again.

A weapon update for Splatoon is due this evening, just in time for a Japan Splatfest.

The Splash-O-Matic shoots ink in a manner similar to a garden hose, while the secondary weapon Suction Bombs and the special weapon Bomb Rush will also be added at the same time.

The update will come at the usual time of 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT, while Japanese players will get the update in the middle of their first Splatfest.

Hype train now boarding, with service to Megatons, Bomba and Please Understand.

Nintendo has released the final schedule for E3 week, so set your calendars appropriately.

The schedule of activities for the week is as follows, all times Pacific (UTC - 8) unless otherwise indicated:

Splatoon and Amiibo got to the pay window, but the hardware might be actually is taking a clubberin'.

The NPD Group has released their sales report for May 2015 in the United States, and there were a couple of strong performers going into E3.

Splatoon was the #5 best selling game (all formats combined) of the month despite coming out in the 2nd-to-last day of the reporting period ending May 30,... Read more...

Hold onto your brick butts, these downloads are headed back to the farm and the doctor's office.

A surprisingly brisk week in the Nintendo downloads, as both the 3DS and Wii U head back to Zach Miller's happy place in LEGO Jurassic World tomorrow to coincide with the movie that will make all of the money this weekend.

On the Wii U eShop, the biggest game on the docket is one of the most beloved... Read more...

Plus Japanese sales and Amazon apparently getting back in the game.

In what’s already been a busy day this close to E3, there’s some smaller things that may have slipped by – but we’ve caught it all for you.

One of the year’s biggest indie titles is getting some new free content, and may add a paid expansion in the future.

And it includes the one game the Wii U version forgot.

KoeiTecmo Japan has posted a video of a 3DS version of Hyrule Warriors that will include Wind Waker content. The Japanese title roughly translates to "Zelda Musou: Hyrule All-Stars".

The video confirms Tetra and the King of Red Lions will be playable, and real-time character change in the vein of Samurai Warriors Chronicles may be included.

The summer fun rolls on.

Splatoon's newest map is unlocking tonight for multiplayer, though it may be familiar to those who have beaten the game.

The Kelp Dome stage will open up as a multiplayer map at the usual Splatoon update time of 10pm ET, 7pm Pacific. Kelp Dome will become the seventh multiplayer map for the game.
