In order to promote Mario & Sonic At The Olympic Games 2020, Nintendo brought an entire climbing wall to E3. I haven’t been on it yet, for fear that a shoeless Sonic will join me.

Looks like E3's West Hall had a temporary power outage, which caused this amusing Zelda II-themed “technical difficulties” screen to pop up during the Nintendo Treehouse Live stage show. Nice planning ahead, Nintendo!

Here at E3, where once sat the PlayStation booth now mostly sits a bar and lounge. Downside: no PlayStation games. Upside: couches.

Minecraft Dungeons has no Minecraft-style building. It’s a loot-filled dungeon crawler for up to four players with all sorts of Minecraft characters. Players can equip and enchant a wide array of outfits, armor, and gear. It’s pretty, and was fun to romp through here at E3 in that Lego game kind of way. Coming to Xbox
