Forums - Nintendo - Christina Grimmie was scheduled to appear at Nintendo E3 booth

The singer Christina Grimmie, who was shot and killed last week in Orlando, was actually suppose to guest star in today's Treehouse show presumably during the Zelda gameplay. This was revealed when Reggie began the Treehouse by talking about the two recents shootings in Orlando. You can see it here on Twitch at this time stamp

Fans have petitioned for her to appear as a NPC in the game as well. And Bill Trinen has changed his twitter icon to her portrait in respect: http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2016/06/fans_petition_nintendo_to_name_zelda_npc_after_deceased_singer_christina_grimmie

Tragic news to hear before the conference. Wish we could have seen her appear during the show : (

Edit: My bad rewatched the video and Reggie just mentions her appearing in the Nintendo E3 booth and not the Treehouse. 



Around the Network

It's unfortunate that this could happen to her. I'm glad Reggie took the time to mention her along with the Orlando victims.



Damn that's just unspeakably sad. Kudos to Nintendo for taking the time to mention her before the conference.
