one thing i believe is that if Zelda does not have any crazy uses fr the gamepad besides a map and inventory management or gyro bow aiming type stuff, then i am fairly certain there will not be a touchscreen on the NX controller.

they wont have stuff like that in one version and not in the other.

People are forgetting how to read now apparently

It's yet another example of poorly worded messaging from Nintendo:

"The livestream will be broadcast over two days, the first will focusing on the new Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon titles, followed by a big look at the Legend of Zelda."

This can easily be interpreted as Pokemon today, Zelda tomorrow.

Thanks for making the OP! Where does the quote about Pokémon being shown first come from? We were trying to determine if that's truly the case here:

Starts off with pokemon.

Bizarrely, I don't think we can say that with certainty. See below. 😜

You're right

All that's been said:
Tune in starting at 9 a.m. PT to see the Pokémon™ Sun and Pokémon Moon games in action, followed by the world’s first in-depth look at the new Legend of Zelda™ game. The day will continue with livestreamed gameplay and behind-the-scenes info from the game experts of Nintendo Treehouse—live and unscripted from the show floor.

Then be sure to come back for a second day of livestreaming, starting at 10 a.m. PT on June 15. The day will start with a special Pokémon GO developer Q&A session. Then Nintendo Treehouse: Live will showcase upcoming games such as Monster Hunter Generations, Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past, and Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE.

They kind of said something different in their most recent press release.

It implied that it'd be Reggie(introducing a Zelda trailer???), then Pokémon, then Zelda gameplay so who knows???

I think this is the PR from last week that you're referring to:

June 14

Nintendo Treehouse: Live – Day 1: Nintendo’s kickoff to the E3 trade show begins at 9 a.m. PT, with an introduction by Nintendo of America President and COO Reggie Fils-Aime and the world’s first look at live gameplay of The Legend of Zelda game for the Wii U console. Viewers can also catch the first live gameplay of the Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon games. Watch Nintendo Treehouse: Live via Nintendo’s channels on YouTube and Twitch, as well as on the Nintendo E3 page.

June 15

Nintendo Treehouse: Live – Day 2: Starting at 10 a.m. PT, the Nintendo Treehouse: Live programming will showcase upcoming Wii U and Nintendo 3DS games, including Monster Hunter Generations from Capcom, Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past and Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE. The day will start with a special Pokémon GO developer Q&A. Watch all of Nintendo’s action from the E3 show floor via Nintendo’s channels on YouTube and Twitch, as well as on the Nintendo E3 page.

Ya - I think defo quite a bit of Pokémon, perhaps a little Zelda tease beforehand, then the full dedicated Zelda trailer & sesh - site says Pokemon first

The reveal will be during the first hour. Then, Treehouse will livestream it for the rest of the day.

So, I think the previous Pokémon and Zelda PR (in SweetDonuts's post) made it sound like Pokémon was first. This newer PR above makes it sound like Zelda first. I guess we will have to say but as GMPoo said above, it sounds like Reggie + Zelda then Pokémon first look then a longer Zelda look. Anyone interpreting the above differently? (I'm kind of combining the two PR statements to reach my conclusion here. Which is admittedly partly speculative. It's sort of murky just what they mean in terms of the order of things.)

(Actually, re-reading the above PR, I honestly don't know what to think. It makes it sound like there not be a dedicated Zelda trailer rather than just live gameplay and at this point that would surprise me. I guess even if we didn't get one during the presentation I would still expect one to be uploaded by Nintendo. We will have to see in just 18 hrs or so...)

Shouldn't this thread be stickied?

This.

Nintendo is not good enough.

 

[DecoReturns]

I find it funny some of you guys are mad Pokemon is being shown.

 

[what-ok]

Head hurts.

 

[Dark Cloud]

I hope they spend an hour on Pokemon Sun and Moon. I want to see the region and some new Pokemon.

 

[MrSaturn99]

LETS DOOOOOOO IIIIIIIIT

My entire hope for Nintendo, summed up in 7 seconds

All three mother games will be available on the worst selling console in the company's history. It almost sounds poetic

Nintendo of America ‏@NintendoAmerica 7 minil y a 7 minutes

Tokyo Mirage # FE looks embarrassing. Really should avoid showing off this game.

 

[BitStyle]

I'm hyped! Let's see the goods with this next Zelda, Nintendo.

 

[orthodoxy1095]

Pokemon? Seriously? Bleugh.

This.

Isn't it just that the thread was a bit last-second? I'm sure it'll get stickied, don't worry much.

 

[Scoops]

New Zelda?

I used to pray for times like this

 

[Milly Osworth]

Have fun everyone!

The conference leaked by the way:

1. Big announced game


😬✌🏼️

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Tokyo Mirage # FE looks embarrassing. Really should avoid showing off this game.

By all accounts it is a great game, people just have this weird complex about it.

I mean, that's what it says at e3.nintendo.com.

Hmm, thank you. When was this updated? I'm wondering if it's correct since the messaging has been unclear across multiple PR statements.

If Pokémon is shown first, then last week's PR statemenr is all the murkier in retrospect. Regardless, as ElectricBlanketFire said above, even this new statement makes it seem like Zelda might be shown tomorrow instead of today (which is definitely not the case). The messaging has been consistently unclear.

 

[boclfon479]

wonder if pokemon will introduce dual type attacks. they teased it with flying press, and both sunsteel stroke and moongeist beam both sound like they could be dual type attacks.

 

[YAWN]

GIMME THE POGEYS
GIMME THE ZELDOS

AAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

 

[BY2K]

Even Ubi devs are hype.

[AsakuraZ]

I'll be in a work meeting when it starts, will be relying on everyone's post to keep me hyped throughout the morning!

 

[Mr-Joker]

Really hoping that Zelda doesn't have voice acting or at least has the option to turn it off.

Oh come the fuck on.

Are they really leading off with Pokemon?

It's starting with pokemon fuck

Why is everyone looking down on Pokémon? It's one of Nintendo biggest IP and is actually releasing this year rather than Zelda U which is most likely releasing winter 2017.

 

[AGoodODST]

Not long now.

Would be nice to see the long rumoured Mother 3 localisation.

 

[Mato]

ok... ok.

 

[Nanashrew]

I'm ready for some Zelda!

 

[nubbe]

Will be fun to see Linkle in action

 

[Cindro]

HYYYYYPE

 

[Anth0ny]

twitch chat is going to be wonderful when they're showing pokemon first

 

[Matbtz]

Please Nintendo brings us some surprises ! The date of the NX reveal would be awesome.

edit : not federation force or amiibo festival surprises please...

 

[Scoops]

Tokyo Mirage # FE looks embarrassing. Really should avoid showing off this game.

Everyone whose played it says it's like a GOTY contender.

 

[Wiz]

Hyped. Been staying away from all the Zelda rumors and discussion, so I want to be truly surprised!!

 

[Tom Nook]

Even Ubi devs are hype.

https://twitter.com/jeansnow/status/742732877767532544

Ready to show off Beyond Good and Evil 2?.....

 

[BladeoftheImmortal]

How long till it starts?

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Why is everyone looking down on Pokémon? It's one of Nintendo biggest IP and is actually releasing this year rather than Zelda U which is most likely releasing winter 2017.

They've been promoting this as the big Zelda blowout. I'd prefer they show that first.

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

Listening to Hamilton to get myself pumped up. This is gonna be awesome

 

[dc89]

Come on Nintendo.

 

[ChrisD]

By all accounts it is a great game, people just have this weird complex about it.

I have the SE pre-ordered and I've still got that complex. :c

Really just running with the super positive word-of-mouth by players who imported. None of the trailers are selling me the game.

 

[GuitarGuruu]

So ready!

 

[TanookiTom]

Any idea why Nintendo would decide to not show the new Paper Mario game at all? It was supposed to launch this year, right?

Guess they have nothing new to show on it.

 

[Aaronrules380]

They've been promoting this as the big Zelda blowout. I'd prefer they show that first.

Pokemon segment probably'll be pretty short regardless. Though I'm super hyped for both

 

[jett]

I hope Pokemon lasts like 20 seconds.

 

[Leonsito]

In my mind the new Zelda will be like Witcher 3 in Hyrule ... HYPE

 

[AcademicSaucer]

Everyone whose played it says it's like a GOTY contender.

If only they had wrapped those combat mechanics with some Shin Megami Tensei demonic shit ...
