Today, Nintendo unveiled its full plans for E3 2017. It’ll consist of three parts: a video presentation, Treehouse stream, and tournaments.
First, a Nintendo Spotlight: E3 2017 video presentation will be hosted at 9 AM PT / 12 PM ET on June 13. We’ll not only receive more details about Super Mario Odyssey, but other Switch games as well “with a focus on games launching in 2017.” Super Mario Odyssey will be playable at the show of course.
Right after the presentation ends, Nintendo Treehouse: Live at E3 will be back once again. Titles for both Switch and 3DS will be showcased with live gameplay. Developers will also be stopping by to chat about their projects.
Finally, two tournaments will be held: one for Splatoon 2, and another for ARMS. These will be hosted on June 13 and June 14 respectively.
Read up on today’s full E3 announcement below.
tinyBuild has been hard at work on a patch for Mr. Shifty. Once released, it should improve the game’s performance – specifically frame rate. The team was hoping to have it ready this week, but it’s taking a bit longer than expected.
tinyBuild CEO Alex Nichiporchik said today that the “patch is simply too big. This is because the Unity plugin we’re using for export is brand new, and tends to package in a bit too many unnecessary information, bloating the size.” tinyBuild is now working with Unity to address this as well as reduce the overall size of Mr. Shifty on Switch.
When we have more news to report about the patch, we’ll let you know.
