It’s almost that time of year again!

In just a few short weeks, E3 2019 will officially kickoff at the Los Angeles Convention Center. The show will likely provide fans with a better look at titles such as The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening, Pokémon Sword and Shield and Super Mario Maker 2 but, up until today, we haven’t known when to expect Nintendo’s streams.

The week will officially begin with a pair of competitions on June 8, featuring Splatoon 2 and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Both will stream live on Nintendo’s E3 website. The more anticipated stream, of course, is the Nintendo Direct E3 2019 presentation. Fans can tune in June 11 at 9 AM PT. According to Nintendo, the presentation will focus “entirely on software,” once again confirming that we should not expect to see a new Switch model, just yet. After the presentation has ended, coverage will continue throughout the duration of the show through the Treehouse Live team. The festivities end June 13.

While the majority of the week’s Nintendo news will come from the company’s presentation, there will likely be a number of other announcements throughout the week. Last year’s presentations from Ubisoft and Limited Run Games provided a number of exciting announcements. As always, you can find news from all of these sources right here at Nintendojo!

    I wonder why they won’t have any news regarding the new Switch model?

      If I had to hazard a guess, I would assume it’s Nintendo trying to get the most sales out of the current model as they can. E3 probably helps push a decent amount of hardware (E3 2016 got me to buy a PS4), while hardware remodels also help. This way they’re spreading their boosts out, rather than doing both at once.
