Just like that, another E3 is in the books. After weeks of hype and speculation, we now know of everything Nintendo had to show between its video presentation and hours of Treehouse streams.

For all of the talk about how long the presentation would be and how Nintendo would mainly be sticking to 2017 games, we arguably saw quite a lot. Not one, but two new Metroid games were announced. A core Pokemon title is in development for Switch. New Kirby and Yoshi titles are coming, not to mention Rocket League as well. Super Mario Odyssey looks fantastic and launches on October 27. Xenoblade Chronicles 2 releases this year despite speculation about it being pushed to 2018, and Fire Emblem Warriors is slated for the fall. 3DS saw some new announcements as well during the Treehouse stream between Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser’s Minions and Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido.

So what did everyone think of this year’s E3? Did it live up to your expectations? Do you have any personal highlights? Let us know in the comments below.

Social media data analytics firm Taykey has offered up new data about social media activity during E3. For Nintendo, there’s quite a bit of good news.

Taykey says that the online conversation volume generated from the Nintendo Spotlight: E3 2017 video presentation was 108 percent more than Xbox. 51 percent of all online conversations surrounding Nintendo reflected positive feedback as well compared to Xbox’s 58 percent. This can be attributed to the fan-favorite announcements Nintendo made and showed, including Metroid Prime 4.
