Nintendo will be live streaming the 2015 Nintendo World Championships!

The news I was hoping to see and read from Nintendo at some point. Nintendo is live streaming the 2015 Nintendo World Championship Finals  this coming Sunday (6/14).

The #NWC are this Sunday, 6/14! We’ll be kicking off the big event with a Treehouse Live pre-show at 2:35 p.m. PT pic.twitter.com/ErKATxVPfS

   They had to give out the times in Pacific Time but I live in Illinois so we have to convert this into Central US time. Which ends up being:

4:35 PM for the Treehouse live show
5:00 PM  for the NWC main event

I'm probably going to have watch the pre-show, to find out who the player from Illinois is. Will be rooting for them to win it of course.  

Today was the Qualifiers for the World Nintendo Championships

The Qualifying rounds for the 2015 Nintendo World Championships were held earlier in the day and  while that in itself is noteworthy the reason why I had to  post about it is that one of Best Buy stores hosting the event is the one in Schaumburg, IL

Sadly I couldn't find anyone live tweeting or Blogging from the event but  I did find this one post from  TechnologyTell.com . Includes photos of potential competitors waiting in in a long line. I've been in a line like that before. Waiting for a video game Midnight release.


One of the few times I actually want to read a live event blog and no one does it. Haha. All that left is to wait until June 14th when the finals happen. Hopefully that will be streamed on Nintendo's Youtube channel.

Nintendo on Humble Bundle but no 1st party games

The main humble bundle going on right now is  for all of you  +Nintendo 3DS and Wii U owners. The official title of the bundle in the Humble Nindie Bundle meaning that is only going to include games made by indie game developers.

The only game I'm really familiar with is Guacamelee which I played on the PC. It's a good action platformer. Mighty Switch Force was developed by Wayforward which I know of from two of their classic remakes.
