Also on Nov. 4, Nintendo will launch new amiibo in the Super Mario series. The collection will feature the debut of amiibo figures for Daisy, Waluigi and Boo – and the Boo amiibo figure glows in the dark! The collection also introduces new poses for Wario, Rosalina, Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong.
he game also includes compatibility with amiibo, which are sold separately. Nintendo announced a new series of amiibo figures specific to the game that includes Link with a bow (“Archer”), Link on horseback (“Rider”), and a “Guardian” that is the first amiibo with flexible parts. The existing Wolf Link amiibo works with the game as well: When players tap a Wolf Link amiibo to the Wii U GamePad controller, Wolf Link will attack enemies on his own and help players to hunt. He has three hearts, unless players carry over save data from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD. Wolf Link disappears when his hearts run out.
E3 Also Marks the First Live Gameplay of Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon
LOS ANGELES, June 14, 2016 – The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild represents the next great boundary-breaking adventure from Nintendo. The game marks a new pinnacle for the franchise, and today Nintendo gave the world its first look at the immense, living and breathing world of the Wii U version of the game at the E3 video game trade show in Los Angeles. The game challenges and surprises players at every turn, while giving them incredible freedom to explore the massive world found in this open-air adventure.
“The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild breaks boundaries for the franchise and for games as a whole,” said Nintendo of America President and COO Reggie Fils-Aime. “Where you go, how you get there, the order in which you do it, and the items, weapons and approaches used to solve puzzles and defeat enemies are all up to you.”
The first actual gameplay for Pokemon Sun/Moon debuted during Nintendo Treehouse: Live @ E3 2016 live stream. Check out a recording of the footage below.
Zelda: Breath of the Wild is bringing back one of the races from Wind Waker. In the game, you’ll find Koroks scattered about the world. Pretty neat to see them return!
New information unveiled at today’s Nintendo E3 Treehouse Live @ E3 presentation, including Battle Royal, Magearna details, new Pokémon and more…
London, United Kingdom – June 14, 2016 – During today’s Nintendo Treehouse Live at E3 presentation, new information and features were revealed for the highly anticipated Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon video games coming exclusively to the Nintendo 3DS family of systems. Details of three brand-new Pokémon that will be discovered as players explore the Alola region have now been officially unveiled—introducing Pikipek, Yungoos and Grubbin.
The first of the new Pokémon revealed is the Normal- and Flying-type Woodpecker Pokémon Pikipek, which can bore holes in trees by striking them up to 16 times per second. These strikes can do more than drill through hard wood—they can even shatter stone. Pikipek can attack distant opponents by firing seeds with enough force to embed them into the trunks of trees. This Pokémon also likes small glittering objects and will hide these amongst their food stores.
It may seem like a small detail, but Zelda: Breath of the Wild has a manual jump button. That’s not something we’ve really seen in the series before!
Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Sun have received a new trailer for E3 showing off the latest Pokemon and Battle Royal. See it below.
A new Pokemon Sun/Moon mode just debuted during Nintendo’s E3 Treehouse stream. Through what was shown, we were given a first look at “Battle Royal”.
Battle Royal is a new multiplayer mode. In it, four players compete in a free-for-all with three Pokemon that are sent out one-by-one. As soon as someone loses all of their Pokemon, it ends and players are tallied by defeated Pokemon and remaining Pokemon. This determines who wins.
A second new Pokemon has been shown today through the Nintendo Treehouse live stream at E3. We now have a look at Pikipek, a Normal/Flying type. It has the abilities Keen Eye and Skill Link.
