Nintendo kicked off
the first day of the E3 video game trade show with big announcements
in its morning Nintendo Direct presentation. Nintendo followed its
presentation with a day of Nintendo Treehouse: Live gameplay and
interview segments designed to give fans a deeper look at various
games:
Pokémon Sword and
Pokémon Shield: Developers from GAME FREAK inc. explained how wild
and random encounters work in the game. They also showed off the
in-game battle system, Max Raid Battles and details of the Wild Area.
The games are scheduled to launch Nov. 15.
Animal Crossing: New
Horizons: Game Director Aya Kyogoku and Producer Hisashi Nogami gave
a first look at live gameplay and an introduction to the deserted
island setting. They offered details about game features and the new
crafting system, and demonstrated the ability of players living on
the same island to play together by sharing a Joy-Con controller. The
game launches March 20, 2020.
The Legend of Zelda:
Link’s Awakening: Nintendo provided more details about the game,
including how Chamber Dungeons work. As players clear dungeons in the
main story, they earn dungeon rooms (Chambers), solve puzzles by
placing chambers into specific layouts and then complete them by
adventuring into them. The game also has amiibo compatibility –
players can tap any amiibo figure featuring a Legend of Zelda series
character to unlock additional Chambers for their Chamber Dungeons,
up to a maximum of five different ones. A new Link amiibo unlocks
Shadow Link and allows him to appear in almost any dungeon room
placed in a Chamber Dungeon. After defeating Shadow Link, players
will earn a lot of rupees. The game launches Sept. 20.
Super Mario Maker 2:
Game Producer Takashi Tezuka announced that with the help of a
post-launch update, players will be able to play with their friends
online. The game launches June 28.
Wednesday and
Thursday’s Nintendo Treehouse: Live livestreams will start at 9
a.m. PT. For the first time, Thursday’s show will focus on indie
games coming to Nintendo Switch.
Tuesday was also the
first day for attendees to visit Nintendo’s booth, which featured
gameplay and fun experiences for some of Nintendo’s 2019 games.
These included a ghost-infested, haunted atmosphere for attendees to
try Luigi’s Mansion 3, a Water Gym arena for players to battle in
Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield, and adorable dioramas depicting
parts of The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening.
