Nintendo #E3 2021

Ladies and gentlemen, it’s that time of year once again! The E3 Nintendo Direct has come and gone, so this week on the NXpress Nintendo Podcast, Cameron Daxon, Marc Kaliroff, Campbell Gill and Gooma Stomp’s Editor-in-Chief Ricky D get together to discuss everything the Big N had to show. Did it live up to the hype? Did it surpass the already-low expectations set by an exceptionally mediocre E3 season? And most importantly, which host got the most correct predictions? The gang discusses all these questions and more in this Divine Beast-sized episode, sharing their thoughts and reactions on all the most important news from the show.

Maybe there wasn’t a grand return for F-Zero, but Nintendo’s E3 showing still revived plenty of fan-favorite franchises with announcements like Metroid Dread, WarioWare Get It Together, and perhaps most surprisingly, Advance Wars 1 + 2 Reboot Camp. The hosts break down their thoughts and reactions to all the headlining reveals along with the smaller showcases along the way, discussing all the possibilities of the Breath of the Wild 2 gameplay trailer and the potential of Tekken representation in Smash, along with some of the potential low points as well. All this and so, so much more!
