Nintendo NY laid out its full plans for E3 2019. The store will be covering the show in a couple of different ways between June 11 and June 14.

Live streams will be taking place throughout the week, starting with the Nintendo Direct and continuing with Nintendo Treehouse. Additionally, it’s been confirmed that fans will be able to go hands-on with select Nintendo titles.

Here’s the full schedule:

Harvest Moon: Mad Dash is in development for Switch, Natsume announced today. The game, which is described as a spinoff, will be featured at E3 2019 with its first appearance. Official details and a “first look” will be shared on June 11.

Hiro Maekawa, president and CEO of Natsume, said in a statement:

Two weeks from today, E3 will technically be kicking off. Nintendo has three tournaments scheduled for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Super Mario Maker 2, and Splatoon 2 on June 8. Companies will also begin to hold conferences and presentations on June 9, with the much-anticipated Nintendo Direct planned for June 11. The E3 festivities will then continue through June 13.

We’re bound to get announcements throughout the entirety of E3 week, but the Nintendo Direct is when fans of the Big N will be paying attention in particular. Nintendo has said it will focus on software planned for Switch in 2019, but we’re bound to get a reveal or two. The spotlight should also be put on the likes of Zelda: Link’s Awakening, Pokemon Sword/Shield, Animal Crossing, Luigi’s Mansion, Astral Chain, and more.

Since we’re so close to E3, we want to know about your hopes and dreams for the show. If Nintendo were to announce one new game, what would you want it to be? What are your expectations for E3 in general? Share your thoughts with us in the comments below.

Here’s some additional information for those who plan on attending the tournaments, along with an FAQ:
