There won’t be a Nintendo press conference at E3 2013 today, but Nintendo is holding a few major events that you should be aware up.

First up is the Nintendo Direct, which will take place at 10 AM ET / 7 AM PT. We’ll be getting first looks at Smash Bros., new 3D Mario and Mario Kart titles for Wii U, and a lot more. These three games alone should be better than Nintendo’s past two E3 events put together! You’ll want to visit Nintendo Everything during the Nintendo Direct for live news updates and trailers, and we’ll continue with our coverage once the presentation ends.

Next up will be Nintendo’s “Wii U Software Showcase” at 1:30 PM ET / 10:30 AM PT. This won’t be live-streamed, and it’s not really a conference, as its mainly an opportunity for the press to try out new games. But Reggie Fils-Aime and Shigeru Miyamoto will be in attendance, so there could be a few interesting nuggets.

Nintendo’s last major event is the Pokemon X/Y roundtable at 9 PM ET / 6 PM PT. We’ll be covering this one as well as things happen. Expect a healthy dose of news regarding Pokemon X/Y.

Oh, and there’s also GameTrailers’ “Nintendo Power Hour” at 2 PM ET / 11 AM PT!

If that wasn’t enough, we’ll be having extensive original content for all of the big Nintendo games – podcasts, previews, videos, and photos – throughout the show. You can find all of our plans here.

Should be a fun few days ahead.

FIFA 14 isn’t coming to Wii U – that has been known for some time know. But what’s interesting is that EA is still planning on releasing the game on Wii and 3DS. A press release sent out today confirms FIFA 14 for both platforms. It’s certainly strange that we’ll be seeing the soccer title on Wii, but not Wii U.

What better way is there to start a Nintendo conference than with a live Zelda performance? That’s exactly what attendees were treated to in 2011. A full-blown orchestra performed a medley of tunes from the Zelda series, capped off with new footage from Skyward Sword.

A series of Zelda announcements followed: Link’s Awakening 3DS VC release that very day, Four Swords for DSiWare, Skyward Sword’s gold Wiimote, symphony concerts, and music CDs.

The 3DS received the spotlight next. Nintendo unveiled new trailers for Mario Kart 7, Super Mario 3D Land, Kid Icarus: Uprising, and Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon. Time was also taken to highlight Star Fox 64 3D.

What followed was all Wii U – the system’s name, GamePad reveal, overview trailer, and games. The very mention of Smash Bros. earned a huge reaction.

And who can forget how Nintendo closed its conference? With now-former EA CEO John Riccitiello coming on stage to announce the publisher’s “unprecedented partnership” with Nintendo. Oh how quickly things can change…
