E3 2017 – Nintendo

Posted on by

Nintendo’s events at E3 were jammed with the hopes and dreams of a generations past and present – granted, many of them are coming in 2018 for Switch, so if folks are still lagging behind on Wii U’s, you may need to play a game of catch up; many of the games scheduled for later releases may not be optimized for Wii U.

However, we’ll not get into that now – what we have in our hands right now is some quality Nintendo fare for you to enjoy.
