Earlier this week Nintendo of America confirmed that The Treehouse will host an 8-hour live broadcast, confirming that the final build of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS will be a main part of the event along with other upcoming Wii U and 3DS games.
Initially we were only given a date, 12th September, but NoA has now provided a start time for the broadcast.
10am Pacific time is 1pm Eastern / 6pm UK / 7pm CET, with the 8-hour run time taking European viewers into the late, late hours.
In terms of potential final details on Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, this comes well after the NicoNico broadcast on the same day from Japan, which is live at 3am Pacific / 6am Eastern / 11am UK / noon CET. Depending on what NicoNico's stream reveals all may be out in the open before the Treehouse kicks off proceedings.
We'll be watching and reporting key news from the NicoNico video and then live blogging the Treehouse broadcast as we all watch here on Nintendo Life. Are you excited about seeing more of Smash Bros. and other new releases, and do you expect any major reveals on the day? Let us know in the comments below.

Again final build sounds like the full game not another demos. Hopefully Duck Hunt is confirmed ,i want to see everyone's faces
Hmm, well good its weekends, so it starts in sweden at 7 pm, and ends 3 am in the night
worldwide release confirmation for Project Zero 5 please!!!
I don't mind missing a few hours. I'll just wake up to some good news! Maybe...
@Mega719 - You want to see everyone's faces when they reveal a character we all knew about because of the leaks (and the fact that everyone's still talking about it)?
11am to 7pm, a bit long no?
Edit: 2am to 10am. Looked at the wrong time.
@DreamyViridi no the character people know about but don't believe he's actually in the game still. I want to see what they done with him
@SanderEvers you do
Ooo!
As long as they show the Smash stuff at the start I don't care. Also IGN is streaming Smash 3DS on friday as well so plenty of options to be had.
Can't wait. I think we'll get some solid release dates for a couple games.
@Mega719 - Fair point. I don't really care for DHD so I hope they show someone we don't already know.
Hoping the Smash Bros for 3DS demo goes live for the rest of the world during or after this event.
I don't expect any earth shattering information or reveals. But a demo release seems about right.
That'll only be 2AM for the UK, on a Friday night too. C'mon, Nintendolife, you're rock n roll enough to handle it.
Disclaimer: Please don't think me ignorant. I am fully aware that some people work weekends and have to be up early on Saturday. I, however, am not one of them
@Tsurii897
I never expect big news.
This way, I might be pleasantly surprised!
Holiday releases only then? So just Smash Bros, Captain Toad, maybe Hyrule Warriors and Pokemon ORAS? I'd really like to have seen some stuff on Xenoblade Chronicles X, Splatoon, Mario Maker, etc. Maybe next time.
It's funny how the term 'everyone' gets tossed about when discussing leaks. As if everyone who might be interested in a game searches as desperately for information and checks all the gaming news websites every day like the Smash fans who frequent this type of website.
Honestly, if those were the only people to buy the game, Nintendo may as well not make the game in the first place.
4 million. That's how many systems Smash needs to sell.
Not games.
Systems. So, regardless if some Japanese broadcast 'spoils' everything, it's audience will likely be a fraction of the Treehouse's presentation, a presentation geared at the one market that can literally turn the Wii U's fortune in a season.
>1AM Philippine time
Guess who won't be able to watch it!
@TheWPCTraveler Myself, because I will be sleeping then
It's almost like watching all 3 parts of a trilogy at once. Get the popcorn ready.
Greeeat. I'll miss 5 hours due to school! :/
I wish it was being shown at Reyn Time
@Spoony_Tech - It's only the 1st 2 parts of the extended ed of the LotR trilogy:-) Though I'm not watching it again until I can watch all 6 movies in 4k 3D blu ray w/ 18 speakers while sitting in the lap of a life sized animated Balrog.
NL is live blogging all 8 hours? W/ the comments scrolling on the side and everything? Until 4 in the morning? Considering 500 comments per 30 min ND that's like 8,000 sleep deprived comments!! Should be a fun read
Can't watch 8 straight hours but will be here for the opening, ending and a whole lot in between.
Given that the tweet was from NoA, holiday titles only probably means Hyrule Warriors, Smash 3DS and Wii U, Bayonetta 1+2, Captain Toad, Pokémon ORAS, Fantasy Life, Mario Kart 8 DLC and Amiibo.
I hope they give us any news on the "New" 3DS, & give us a demo. I think there only going to talk about games they already announced. So nothing special...I hope.
6 till 2? Perfect.
Holiday titles? So no Splatoon?
i hope they put the video on the eshop
Eastern time here. Anyway I could watch that NicoNico thing or would I have to sign up as a member on the site or something?
My son asked if he could stay home from school to watch this LOL! Luckily im off from work that day so i'll be able to catch some of it but as hyped as i am for SSB 3DS im very glad they're goin to show off Holiday games…and DARE I SAY some release dates?! I know thats krazy talk but hey…
I want to see my own face when they reveal playable Isaac
I hope they have something to reveal about the new Star Fox game.
NoA has confirmed that the release date of SSB for Wii U will be announced.
Meh, i'll catch up on the highlights
Glad its 1PM for me, I usually wake up around noon.
B-But I gotta do education stuff until 3:30 PM! I'm gonna miss 2 and a half hours! Please tell me Smash isn't till the 4 hour mark...
@WanderingPB
Be a good parent and let him stay.
I'll be in school for 2 of the first hours, (Eastern) anyways I am very excited.
1pm? Cool, I should be up by then. I've long been sold on Smash, hardly need more convincing so I'm looking forward to the other holiday release news particularly Captain Toad.
