The Nintendo Treehouse Live @ E3 2015 festivities continue today with another lengthy stream. Games confirmed to be shown include Yoshi’s Woolly World, FAST Racing Neo, and Xenoblade Chronicles X.
The stream will kick off at 12:55 PM ET / 9:55 PM PT / 5:55 PM in the UK / 6:55 PM in Europe. We’ve attached an embed below.
We have one new tidbit about Super Mario Maker coming from GameXplain’s interviews with the developers. The outlet reports that the Koopalings won’t be featured. Unfortunately, we don’t know why at the moment!
More footage has come in showing Donkey Kong and Bowser in Skylanders SuperChargers. Take a look at the video below.
Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones could be seeing a release on the North American Wii U Virtual Console very soon. It’s been classified by the ESRB, which usually suggests an imminent launch. I’d bet that we’ll be seeing it tomorrow in fact given how past ratings have turned out!
This information comes from Shigeru Miyamoto…
“We didn’t really look around at that many different places. Our first instinct was to try and find an appropriate team within Nintendo. One place we kind of considered was Monolith Soft.”
“But it kind of came down to to there wasn’t really a place we wanted to work with other than Platinum just because they are so committed to creating exciting visuals. We kind of really wanted to improve the visual quality of the game.”
Miyamoto also said Nintendo felt comfortable trusting Platinum with an intellectual property due to the studio’s understanding of action games. Additionally, the team has a number of Nintendo fans.
Aside from that, Platinum was approached first mainly because of Miyamoto’s history with game designer Hideki Kamiya. Miyamoto mentioned: “A kind of another element is the fact that I worked for a long time with Kamiya, even going back to our Capcom days working on Mickey Mouse games. So that was definitely part of it, too.”
