Nintendo has big plans for PAX Prime this year. Not only are there going to be two Nintendo-centric events during the weekend, but its PAX Prime booth will be packed with nearly all of its hottest upcoming games.
First up, the events. The first will run throughout the length of PAX Prime, but will be outside the convention halls. Called the SmashBash, it allows anyone to walk up and play Super Smash Bros. for the 3DS from one of many locations around Seattle. We will post where these booths are located as soon as that information is available.
Secondly, Nintendo has confirmed with us that a Hyrule Warriors Event will take place on Saturday from 7:00PM to 10:00PM PST. It’ll be host at the Renaissance Seattle Hotel, where a ton of Hyrule Warriors demo stations have been set up. Gamers can get their hands on the game without a PAX Prime ticket, and earn a variety of swag, some of which is exclusive to the event, like a Link Scarf.
As far as Nintendo’s game line-up goes, here’s everything that will be on the show floor:
Wii U Games
- Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
- Hyrule Warriors
- Bayonetta 2
- Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker
- Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric (SEGA)
