Nintendo Direct E3 2013 Liveblog

11:48am by Eric

Well, after rewatching the Nintendo Direct E3 event, I have to say I’m excited, but not blown away.

Unfortunately with no hardware announcements this con bumps them down a few notches, but with a solid lineup of fun looking exclusive games coming I’m still happy.

I am a little disappointed that we didn’t hear about a new Zelda, Metroid, or Star Fox game. But the games they did announce look very entertaining.

While Nintendo didn’t do anything explosive like Sony did last night, it’s still great to see them come out with a strong lineup!
