E3 is now around a week away, which means it's sweaty palm time for excited gamers and Nintendo's executives. Nintendo is no doubt hoping to make an impact this year that'll earn both attention and praise, with features such as the Wii U's GamePad and NFC — along with new games — set to be prominent. The company's official plans certainly gives it a chance of success, with a Digital Event, Smash Bros. Invitational, Best Buy demo stations around the U.S. and live streaming from the Nintendo Treehouse team all confirmed.
Nintendo's own social channels will be vital, of course, but the company has also secured decent coverage from the official E3 website, too, in addition to well-known presenter Geoff Keighley hosting the Smash Invitational. More good news is that the official live streaming platform for E3, Twitch, will be featuring Nintendo's main digital event and the invitational in its broadcasts. The full line-up also reveals four additional Nintendo demonstrations, however, one of which is an "unannounced title". Once you've remembered to breath, check out the full line-up below, with Nintendo's featured slots in bold.

"10:30am – Twitch Time"?
I'd been wanting to take a week of vacation, so I actually asked for this whole next week off. I'm going to be keeping a lot of E3 stuff on in the background probably. I can't help but get excited.
One must be the mystry 3DS game and that S.T.E.A.M. trademark game. Remember that Mario game that was confirmed to be in development a couple months ago?
Woah, Nintendo is doing it big this year ain't they?
10:00am – Tetris w/creator Alexey Pajitnov
haha that's cool!
So it's been changed from 4 unnanounced title slots to 1. A bit concerned but they may do a fair amount of Wii U announcements in the digital event.
@DakotaM47 Didn't Nintendo say the mystery 3DS game was going to be shown off for 90 minutes though? These are all 30 minute slots.
Sorry if i accept fans but i don't know who any of the big names in the Smash Bros Invitational are. Wish the unannounced title didn't have to be revealed on the of my finals i'm taking vacation on the first 3 days of E3
I haven't been living under a rock i just don't watch live gaming tournaments if that's what they present
I saw this one on another site yesterday or the other and it was 4 unannounced titles. The new list here are now 3 demos and 1 unannounced title.
Zelda Wii U I want you. Heard some rumour zelda williams is taking part in a nintendo presentation as well.
If only it were both new F-Zero and Starfox. Please, let me dream some more...
For the demos I'll guess bayo2, x, and hw.
@timp29 not rumors, she confirmed that. But she also said it's not for what we'd expect so don't get your hopes up for Zelda U, it's probably to promote Hyrule Warriors.
YEAHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Grumblevolcano
These streams will be on the official E3 twitch streaming, they will take segments of nintendo treehouse to stream but you can see the whole thing on nintendo's twitch channel.
Where does the Smash developer's meeting fit in? It's supposed to be Tuesday night. They best be streaming that.
Crazy prediction time......unannounced title will be Metroid Prime 4. Demos will be Project S.T.E.A.M., SMT vs FE, and Zelda U.
OH MY GOD TOO MUCH GOING ON!
Will I be able to get this from nintendos website or do I have to use twitch? And is it Twitch exclusive info or will it be on nintendos website at the same time?
can't wait to see what nintendo annouces in the digital event hopefully there will be a few suprises and will try and watch all the nintendo streams on twitch and sonic boom
Niiice! Can't wait! Twitch is my TV.
Mario Universe
@MixMasterMudkip Some time during E3 via "Treehouse" which is streaming on Nintendo's twitch channel. http://e3.nintendo.com/#2014/treehouse
I am really excited for this E3 even though my hopes are still not as high as they were last year and I'm trying to be realistic about it. I do hope there is some more news on fast racing neo as they said they would show more soon in January!!! Since then has it become f-zero? Don't want to think about it but excited to hopefully see some more of that if it's there.
Also interesting to see what Square Enix and Tecmo Koei have to offer Hope this will end up being better than last year. It was slightly disappointing back then.
Okay Nintendo, you got the world by the balls after Mario Kart and E3 can only take that to the nth degree! DONT SCREW IT UP
I hate Twitch so I really hope YouTube streaming will also happen.
Spreading it over four days? That's just cruel...
Pacific Time means it's four or three hours from my time and I got half day on Monday only so....guess I have to watch the highlight coverage.
More on the new pokemon games please!
"Nintendo is touting that instead of small gameplay and trailer samples, Treehouse will bring in-depth gameplay videos of both announced and unannounced titles. Developers will also be on hand to give in-depth analysis live at the event. Finally, the legendary Shigeru Miyamoto will be in attendance on Tuesday, June 10th. Will he be showing off a new game?"
Treehouse Crew will be streaming live on Twitch and YouTube during the following times:
Tuesday, June 10th: 11:35 AM – 4:00 PM PT
Wednesday, June 11th: 9:15 AM – 6:00 PM PT
Thursday, June 12th: 9:30 AM – 5:00 PM PT
I'm just really hoping for a glimpse of Zelda U! Doubt it'll be a full demo, but they can still show something in the Nintendo Digital Event.
Do you feel the hype?
DO YOU FEEL IT MR. KRABS?
@HanSolo57 Impossible. EAD Tokyo just started with the next Mario. Don't expect more Mario till E3 2015 (maybe).
@Shiryu Look at it this way......atleast The blue sub from star fox has appeared so that has to mean something right?
OK... The 90 min Discussion for the Nintendo 3DS unannounced title (12:00pm – Nintendo (Unannounced title)) is present but where's the 90 min Discussion for Smash Bros. that is supposed to happen at Tuesday 10th June 7:00pm-8:30pm Pacific Time?
@Artwark Can't argue with it's price either, it free for anyone who bought the premium version! It has 10 Surface speed!
E3 can't come fast enough. I really want to know what the mystery 3ds game is, plus all of the other great stuff the big 3 has to show off.
I feel like a kid at Xmas!
Shame the Sony conference is on at 2am UK time tho...
Nintendo is only going to show off 1 unannounced title? bummer. Hope it's something awesome....
Imagine the reaction if their unannounced title is Wii Music U with Reggie and Iwata dancing cha-cha while shigeru is blowing the flute (wii-mote). And lets not forget the drum guy too.
Nintendo is going to drop MEGATONS upon MEGATONS next week! I can feel it in my gut!
Really excited about this unannounced game. I feel like we'll be getting a lot of good stuff since the Nintendo Directs have kind of died off lately.
Wii U Music for announced title! All aboard the hype orchestra! xD seriously though, expecting good things this year, Nintendo really seems like they're getting their act together!
I have high hopes for this years E3. Really excited to see what Wii U/3DS titles are shown. In the meantime I have a lot of games to catch up on!
Hotline Miami 2 it is funny that is there with the other things that are around it. (The last one was the total opposite).
12:00 pm for the unannounced title? I think I have class at that time. Oh well, at least I can find out about it after the fact.
This is the new format guys. E3 has now become one big streaming event on Twitch. All that bickering about Nintendo doing live presenation or not was meaningless. Because times have changed. It's all going to be watched on Twitch anyways. So it doesn't matter if it's on a stage, pre-recorded, or from the Motel 6. As long as they have content streamed on the service, that's what matters. And tbh, a pre-recorded presentation can do and be so much more than a bunch of suits on a stage, and be far more entertaining as well. Not to mention, Nintendo is sharing the stage anyways for several time slots, the most intriguing being the Smash Tournament.
I don't like that Geoff Keighley guy ever since the VGA's. But, he has clout and the gamer masses listen to him. Just his mere association with Nintendo for the Smash Tournament is enough to sway gamer's opinions. I think that's about the best thing Nintendo could have done tbh, and they did it.
Maybe Yarn Yoshi? what ever happened to that? it initally had release dates for early-mid 2014 I almost pre-ordered it!
Would love it to be a new Kirby (wii u) game though
On the Nintendo front of things....I'm keeping my expectations really low. I should be excited which I am but I'm not hyped... I dunno guys & gals... My highlight for Nintendo's E3 will likely be the Smash Bros Invitation thing. That should be ubers of FUN & excitement!!!
I hope it is a new IP, or maybe a metroid game.
I'm a bit confused; Is the unannounced title the same 3DS mystery title, or is it a separate unannounced title?
All im mostly interested in hearing about from Nintendo is X. I know smash is coming soon so im not as eager to find out anything about it. I also feel the same about hyrule warriors
@Steven1094 I doubt it would be Final Fantasy XV or Kingdom Hearts III since those games were already announced.
I'm doing as much studying as I can so that I'm free at 6:00, which is when the broadcast starts in SA. Anyone know how long it is?
