Nintendo at E3 – a look back – E3 2001

Nintendo won’t be holding a large-scale media briefing at this year’s E3, but press conferences have been an important part of the company’s past. And with E3 2013 right around the corner, I thought it’d be a great time to revisit some of their events – starting with E3 2001.
Nintendo’s E3 2001 conference was quite interesting. It was Nintendo’s big display of the GameCube: Smash Bros. was announced (and received a fantastic reaction!). Luigi’s Mansion and Pikmin were shown for the first time, too. We got a first look at the GameCube controllers, game disc, and even learned when the system would be launching around the world.
I’ve tried to incorporate some randomness/humor in our previous two videos. This time around, there’s no funny business. Watch it and let me know what you think! More E3 videos to come.
