Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
We have an update on the Cult of the Lamb Nendoroid with a final release date, new photos, and pre-orders.
Lamb is the star of the game, so it’s unsurprising to see it gets its own figure. The Nendoroid here will come with a few face plates – specifically the smiling face, battle face, and ritual face. You’ll also get the sword, broom, poop (yes, really), and more for different poses. Like other Nendoroids, it also comes with a stand as it does not balance on its own.

My Nintendo members in North America can get their hands on the latest physical reward, with the site adding a Super Mario shopping bag.
One side includes a selection of Super Mario characters and the classic Super Mario series logo on the other. Aside from the bag itself where you can obviously carry things, there’s another little wrinkle to it. Nintendo mentions that it can be folded into a Question Mark Box pocket that makes it compact and easy to carry.

ReedPop and ESA no longer partnering on E3, 2024 event would not be at the LA Convention Center, revamp planned for 2025
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
ReedPop and ESA previously teamed up in hopes of bringing back E3 for a 2023 event, but as we know, the whole thing was eventually scrapped. Now the two sides are parting ways without ever putting on a show together. Apparently it was a “mutual decision”.
ESA president and CEO Stanley Pierre-Louis said in a statement: “We appreciate ReedPop’s partnership over the past 14 months and support their ongoing efforts to bring industry and fans together through their various events. While the reach of E3 remains unmatched in our industry, we are continuing to explore how we can evolve it to best serve the video game industry and are evaluating every aspect of the event, from format to location. We are committed to our role as a convenor for the industry and look forward to sharing news about E3 in the coming months.”

Nintendo has dropped a video that it previously teased in which Shigeru Miyamoto and Charles Martinet talk about the change of Mario’s voice actor. It was posted on social media a short while ago.
Martinet, who voiced Mario and other characters from Nintendo for decades, is now a Mario Ambassador. Miyamoto said that “in this role Charles will continue to travel around the world and meet fans, performing the familiar voices at events, signing autographs, and enjoying interacting with you all.”

Nintendo Live 2023: An inside look at Nintendo’s inaugural Seattle event
Posted on 1 year ago by Nicholas Serpa in Features, General Nintendo, Switch | 0 comments
PAX West 2023 was made a little more special this year thanks to the presence of Nintendo Live, a massive fan-focused convention celebrating iconic Nintendo games, franchises and hardware. While a similar event has taken place in Japan in recent years, this marked the first time the event has been held in North America. And while tickets were free to the public, they awarded at random to interested PAX West attendees (and people who entered a lottery system via Nintendo’s website), so not everyone who was interested in going was given the opportunity to attend. Fortunately, I was able to check out the event on behalf of Nintendo Everything, and there was a lot to see and do for those willing to wait out the massive crowds.
