Nintendo to Start E3 2016 on June 10 and Feature Zelda

UPDATE: It seems like there was some sort of glitch with my 3DS that allowed an old SpotPass to come through. However, the news is that E3 will be solely focused on Zelda, so that was correct, at least!


Each year, it seems the major video game companies start their E3 announcements and celebrations earlier and earlier. This year, Nintendo is jumping on the bandwagon. Instead of hosting their event on the first day of E3 (June 14), they are going a full four days early (June 10).

The news come via “FILSAMECH” on 3DS SpotPass. The robot version of Reggie Fils-Aime, the President of Nintendo of America, simply stated, “E3 6/10 9AM PT!” Unfortunately, he didn’t mention anything about being love or on video this year.


Also, it looks like Zelda will definitely be shown off at E3 this year, according to the SpotPass visit from Aonuma, where he said, “Triforce in E3!”
