NXpress Nintendo Podcast #11: The 2015 Nintendo World Championships and E3 2015
In honour of E3, we decided to deliver a bonus podcast this week. Kicking off the show is our discussion of Masahiro Sakurai’s special video presentation for Super Smash Bros. and our opinion on the footage being leaked a day early. In our main event, we sit down and interview Jeff Hansen, the winner of the original 1990 Nintendo World Championship in the 11 and under category. And ending the show is our review of the 2015 Nintendo World Championship and our thoughts on Blast Ball, Earthbound Beginnings, Mario Maker and the upcoming amiibo for Animal Crossing, Super Smash Bros. and more.
