Nintendo has revealed that it will once again host its very own gaming expo in Japan this year, with Nintendo Live 2019 Kyoto scheduled to take place in October.
It'll be kicking off on 13th October at the Kyoto International Conference Center, likely following a similar format to last year's event. It will feature tournaments for games like Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Splatoon 2 and Super Mario Maker 2, other events on stage, and playable demos of new titles.
Those other events include a Splatoon concert, which will no doubt be fantastically fresh, and even a Super Mario Maker 2 stage show featuring comedy duo, Yoiko.
Nintendo also announced its plans for Gamescom earlier today, revealing that it will share new gameplay videos of several top games coming to Switch in the near future.
Who wants to take one for the team and buy flight tickets for everyone to go? No one? Really? Well, we tried...

This is Spaceworld?
Exciting! I wonder if they'll reveal anything new during the shows.
If only this was in September during my trip to Japan.
@Paraka Probably the closest we'll get to a new Spaceworld. I think they want to make the Nintendo brand right in centre for this one as Spaceworld while a cooler name than Nintendo Live, it does not have the same clarity as to what the expo is about.
@jswhitfield8 and I’ll get the beers!!
@jswhitfield8 will probably cost you about the same haha
Maybe they will announce a new remaster if we all join the movement! #RemasterThousandYearDoor

Ho geez, looks like I'm holding off trading in Super Mario Odyssey in case they announce major DLC for at least another month past 2019 Tokyo Game Show.
So, it's the return of Nintendo Space World, after (according to Wikipedia) a 18-year hiatus.
I see the comments

Well hope to at least catch the concert
I wonder if they're doing this instead of a September Nintendo Direct this year.
I'm a half hour train ride out of Kyoto. I will have to go check this out!
(Hey NL, if you're looking for someone to cover this, I'd be happy to go, take pictures and write something up for you!)
Well...!
You tried!
And I'm in!
(I live in Korea)
