Nintendo have detailed their E3 2019 plans

We all knew Nintendo were hosting some game tournaments and that their Nintendo Direct would make an appearance at E3 2019, but now we have all the details.

“We’re starting with some heated competitions and delivering new content the whole week,” said Nintendo of America President Doug Bowser. “Whether people are attending the show in person or watching from home, our goal is to provide them with the best possible Nintendo experience.”

Everything begins on June 8 in Los Angeles, or June 9 for those here in Australia, with the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate World Championship 2019 3v3. At 11am local time or 4am here on June 9, those who tune in to watch, will get to see the best players from North America, Europe, Australia/New Zealand and Japan, fight to find the best team.

Those who want a fresher experience can tune in at 2pm LA time or 7am Melbourne time for the Splatoon 2 World Championship 2019. Teams from the same four regions, North America, Japan, Europe and Australia/New Zealand will compete to be the winners and the freshest there is.

For those who are not into watching eSports, you can tune in at 2am on Wendesday June 12 to watch the Nintendo Direct for E3 2019. The presentation, which focuses entirely on software, will offer a look at games scheduled to launch in 2019, so if you are hoping for a Switch Pro or something, you might be out of luck.

Finally, Nintendo Treehouse Live will make a return, once again streaming each day of the show and providing viewers with in depth looks at many of the games from Nintendo and even 3rd party ones.

Here are the times you need to know, Smash and Splatoon are on Sunday June 9 and the other begin on June 12
