So, I heard Nintendo said there's no new hardware being shown at E3. I was hoping for the Switch Mini. I am really disappointed.

Nintendo has literally never missed an E3 and they've always had a huge presence on the show floor. In recent years, they've used Directs to unveil new products instead of a potentially awkward stage presentation. Their 2008 conference was embarrassing and they ran into some technical difficulties during a live demo in 2011, so I can understand why they'd want more control over how their new products are introduced.

Oh yeah? Is that official, then? No hardware announcements? If so, bummer.

Nintendo has fully unveiled it's plans for E3 2019.
Europe:
America:
Basically the format is the same as it's been a few years now. On June 8th there will be Splatoon and Smash tournaments. No news have been promised for these, but developers have been known to hang around these, so who knows.
On June 11th, Nintendo Direct will be hosted. It promises a look on Nintendo Switch titles for 2019. After that, there will be thee days of Nintendo Treehouse Live streams, just like previous years.
It's time to jump on the hype train folks!

I might end up taking a few days off work just to keep up with all the news and new gameplay.
Plus I'll probably have a hard time sleeping due to all the hype and mess up my sleep schedule.

When I was in university, I would take a day off, plug my pc to the tv, get my other pc and just f5 gaf, watch it melt when the megatons hit, the early leaks, the Cboat posts, all the cryptic insider info drops, people betting their accounts, bans, tags, quotes...
all whilst eating birthday cake and opening gifts. It was glorious.
And still is, in a minor scale.

Reggie leaving was a godsend to me. Imo I would in no way classify him as a "decent presenter" if anything he always came off forced, PR microphone and gave me used car salesman vibes.
I agree with the other poster I prefer live conferences over Directs. I hope they find a good presenter and go for it.

Unless that DIRECT has some magic in it and maybe titles that aren't planned for 2019, some wild announcements, then it will be so boring.
Splatoon and Smash tournaments sound incredibly boring.

Switch is looking mighty tasty right now. Astral Chain, Marvel alliance 3, Mario Maker 2, Links awakening.

Not expecting much but I do hope to at least see Metroid Prime trilogy for switch and whatever Monolith Soft is working on.

Can't wait to see the reveal of the New Super Mario Something or other...
You know, the one where they introduce new game mechanics, like jumping around and collecting coins and stuff.
Should be awesome...

Buuuuut I'll settle for at least fire emblem full blow out, Metroid Prime trilogy and we'll thats about it as far as expected stuff goes. I don't see them doing any Pokemon info at E3, it's not their style usually a standalone event.
I'm hoping to see some thq goodness as well. Is it too much to ask for a Timeplitters remaster since they bought the IP? They gotta be working on this surely.
The Switch is my favourite console in terms of the ease of playing games on it. For whatever reason I'd play games I never considered on other consoles on it to mostly great success.

Here’s hoping that LttP remake rumor is true. Links awakening is already going to be amazing but a remake of my second favorite game of the series? Fuck yeah I’d want that.
Unless they announce the next Mario & Luigi rpg, I’d be super hyped for that.
I agree that nsmb is meh, but why would they need to add new mechanics to a formula that’s fine as-is? I just want a better art style and better music and less hand-holding in the next Mario game. Which I seriously doubt they’d announce as SMM2 is the next Mario game.Can't wait to see the reveal of the New Super Mario Something or other...

Mario Maker 2 is all I need this year anyway, once all the clever folks start filling it up with new ingenious puzzle levels like last time.

I haven't tried the first two yet. Less time as you get older I guess.

There are really good in my opinion, especially you in turn based combat.

i'm unfamiliar with this rumor but even if that were to be the case, I don't think they would announce it before the Link's Awakening remake even releases..

Man why couldn't the events be swapped. I wanna see the new games first instead of watching other people play old games.

The rumour was never that it was a remake, a retailer simply had LTTP listed for Switch.

Where did you get this from?But there is a good chance we might get Bravery Third for Switch.

Best Buy also sell digital game codes on their site. I'd say there's little reason to assume Nintendo would have a LTTP remake in the chamber when they've already got LA.
But hell, I'll take 10 copies of both.

Oh yeah, I guess this will be the first E3 I watch without Reggie, gonna be weird, but i'm looking forward to seeing what Mr. Bowser does and how he handles it (unless they decide to have one of the Japanese guys do it).
I won't miss the yearly sesquipedalian speech on the nature of gaming and fun. Those were always freakin' weird and slowed things down to a crawl in an otherwise quite fast pace presentation (post-conference era at least).

This is the E3 where Nintendo will finally revive Sutte Hakkun and Mole Mania. Fingers crossed.

I’m just hoping for a good third party e3 showing for switch. Nintendo fucked up metroid and the retro studios game looks to be something cheesy.
I’m excited for Luigi’s mansion but I don’t need e3 for that.
There won’t be new hardware and Metroid trilogy is overdue.
Maybe theyve something up their sleeve and I am loving my switch lately anyway but my moneys on Microsoft this e3.

Please show us something Monolith Soft!
What is this?
The new Western-style fantasy IP they’re supposedly working on.
