Remember when Iwata and NoA said they were studying a way to bring E3 to us - or something like that? Well, there`s news!

 

In a surprising move, Nintendo America has associated itself with Best Buy to let some of demos shown at E3 be played at the retailer.

 

According to he portuguese Eurogamer site. the announcement was made by Reggie himself, although there is no confirmation on what demos will be available, but great news is still great news, right?

 

 

 

Hope they also do this all over Europe. Fingers crossed!

I really hope you guys get a Europe announcement, I always feel bad about friends in Europe getting the short end of the stick.

It will be harder to negotiate that. I`m not even sure there`s a retailer that is presente in at least most of Europe. Still, i hope it happens. Would be awesome!

I can already see crowded stores during E3.

Now, this is how you do marketing!

This is great news, but I was hoping they could put the demos on the eShop for the week of and after E3. I think that would work much better. Still, this is a great move.

They are probably trying to find a way to do this in Europe. Hopefully they succeed.

The demos can still happen. They are already limited in number of plays. People would be craving for more!

I hope they do and they take the opportunity and do a road show since Wii U never got one in the first place.

:D

Camping for games will have a new meaning!
