WHAT:

   

From June 14 through June 19, 500 Nintendo fans will be among the first people in the world to play The Legend of Zelda for the Wii U console at the Nintendo NY store. The 500 fans will be selected during a Super-Fan Signup Day, which will be held on Saturday, June 11. Only the first 500 eligible people in line when Nintendo NY opens at 9 a.m. ET will receive a wristband that they can exchange for a ticket, which guarantees them a spot to play the game during selected times June 14-19. (Fans can start lining up at 7 a.m. ET on June 11. Photo ID is required, and minors must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.)

       
     

The six-day free event will begin at noon ET on June 14, when fans will be invited to watch gameplay of The Legend of Zelda live-streamed from Nintendo’s booth at this year’s E3 video game trade show in Los Angeles to the 15-foot gaming screen inside Nintendo NY. This will be the world’s first in-depth look at the game. Then at 3 p.m. ET, the first of 500 fans will begin sampling the game for the first time.

       
     

From June 15 to June 19, Nintendo experts will also be giving guided game-play demonstrations on the big screen for everyone to watch and enjoy. Several fans may even get the chance to participate in guided demonstrations. There will also be The Legend of Zelda trivia for a chance for fans to win fun prizes.

Even if I lived in NY, there would be no chance for me to try it.The 500 people that manages to sign in will be people that will probably camp in from of the World Store for 2 days before opening.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

I'd like to check out the store, heard they did some cool renovations after they renamed the store from Nintendo World.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

They will be there!



Looks like I won't be going to Nintendo NY this year, not that I was even considering going after last year.

They're probably already camping right now.



Is this the new Zelda or the original one?



I take it this means no Best Buy events, breaking their 3 year streak. Meh, not like I woulda gone anyway.



Well, doesn't matter how many can play it, since I for sure will never be able to :p
