I will be live blogging the news below. Let's see how close I was.
And we're off!
Bill Trinen up first, talking about new surprises.
Star Fox Zero news is up first! The game is finally ready! This is pretty good news.
The structure is similar to Star Fox 64, but there is a new teleport system, and branching paths with new bosses. There will be lots of alternate paths. A new two-player mode has one player piloting the Arwing, and the other gunning.
Star Fox Guard is the name of the Robot Guard game shown off at E3. You play as Slippy and you can upload your own level creations.
If you have the Star Fox amiibo, you will get a SNES version of the Arwing!
Both games will come together, and they are out April 22!
Splatoon news next! Starting out with update news, bringing various updates and balancing and it will come out next week.
Some more weapon updates come out in two parts. The first one will be in April.
Mario & Sonic at the 2016 Rio Olympic Games. It doesn't look as dirty as it does in real life though.
A new event in the game: Rugby Sevens. Comes out June 24th on Wii U. Meh. 3DS version March 18.
Super Mario Maker news: Over 6.2 Million Courses made.
Some update news: Adding skewers, keys, and key-doors. You can hide a key in a block, make an enemy hold it, or add pink coins that you have to collect.
