A new video added to Nintendo’s YouTube channel reveals additional details about the Nintendo World Championships 2015.

First, it’s now confirmed that Kevin Pereira will be hosting. Pereira suggested on his Twitter account last week that he’d be leading the proceedings.

We also know about some of the players participating in the Nintendo World Championships. Sinister1 (speedrunner), Cosmo (speedrunner), TheMexicanRunner (NES completionist), Bananas (speedrunner), Essentia (speedrunner), Trihex (speedrunner), Jovenshire (Smosh Games), and Arin (Game Grumps). will be at the tournament. There will also be eight winners from the Nintendo World Championship Qualifiers at Best Buy that will be announced soon.

djWHEAT, Andre (Black Nerd Comendy), and Justin Flynn will be commentators.

Finally, it’s confirmed that Splatoon will be featured at the Nintendo World Championships, and it will be the first time that it’s played in a tournament setting.

The Nintendo World Championships 2015 will be held on June 14 at 6 PM ET / 3 PM PT. A pre-show will kick off 25 minutes before the show.

Update: The Mario – Gold Edition amiibo is heading to New Zealand on June 22.

On Twitter, Nintendo has announced that the Mario – Gold Edition amiibo is coming to Australia on June 25. The figure will be sold at Target, both in-store and online. Pricing is set at AU$17.95.

In Capcom’s latest financial results published last month, the company said that it expected to sell 2.5 million copies of a “title related to Monster Hunter” for 3DS by March 31st, 2016. We all thought that this was referring to Monster Hunter Stories since it was the only game in the series announced for Nintendo’s portable at the time. However, Capcom was actually referring to Monster Hunter X, which was only just revealed last week.

Monster Hunter X launches in Japan this winter. Monster Hunter Stories, on the other hand, isn’t expected until sometime in 2016.
