Nintendo’s announcement that the upcoming Zelda title for Wii U would be the only game shown at E3 this year was met with disappointment by many, but the promise of in-depth footage and developer interviews was enough for Nintendo fans eagerly awaiting the next entry in the Zelda series.

In a somewhat surprising announcement, then, Nintendo has announced that it will in fact be showing off a number of other games alongside Zelda Wii U at E3. While there is still no press conference or Nintendo Direct planned, the new Pokémon games and a number of other upcoming releases will be showcased during the Nintendo Treehouse live stream on June 14 and 15.

Nintendo heads to E3 once again and brings the coverage directly to you with a two-day program from Nintendo Treehouse: Live at E3! Tune in starting at 9 a.m. PT on June 14 for a day of live-streaming gameplay focused on The Legend of Zelda for Wii U and first live gameplay of Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon that kicks off the program!

Day 2 of Nintendo Treehouse: Live at E3 will showcase upcoming releases for Wii U and Nintendo 3DS, including Monster Hunter Generations, Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past and Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE! Day 2 will start with a special Pokémon GOdeveloper Q&A at 10 a.m. PT on June 15.

It’s great to hear that we can now look forward to seeing more on show from Nintendo, but for those of you worrying that extra games will detract from Zelda Wii U, Nintendo recently announced that select fans will be able to play the game this month at the Nintendo NY store.
