Are you heading to PAX South next weekend? It’s happening from January 27th-29th in San Antonio, Texas at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, and Nintendo will be there to showcase the Switch and a handful of games—including some highly, highly anticipated titles.
Here are the Nintendo Switch games that will be playable at the booth:
- The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
- 1-2-Switch
- Snipperclips: Cut it out, Together!
- Splatoon 2
- ARMS
- Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
- Super Bomberman R
- Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers
Nintendo will also have a “main stage” setup in place inside their booth, with an emphasis on making the demo process an “experience”, using some unique environmental set-ups… Nintendo certainly loves to get creative when it comes to showing off their new hardware! Here’s the official statement on their booth plans:
“The main stage at the Nintendo booth will feature hands-on time with different Nintendo Switch games. But instead of a traditional booth setup, these games can be experienced in creative environments that show off the unique functionality of the Nintendo Switch system. For example, games can be played in the cross-section of an airplane to show how easy it is to take Nintendo Switch with you anywhere. Other games will be set up in a living room to highlight that Nintendo Switch is also a home gaming system that can be played on a TV. In addition to all the awesome Nintendo Switch experiences, the main stage at the Nintendo booth will feature hosted competitions, live demonstrations, video presentations and other fun Nintendo surprises.”
We’re certainly intrigued! If you’re headed South this week, safe travels and have fun!
