E3 2015: When is Nintendo’s press conference

Nintendo is once again not hosting an E3 press conference this year and is instead putting together a Nintendo direct video. It worked pretty well for them last time, so it’s not necessarily a negative thing.

In LA time, the video will air from 9am on Tuesday, June 16th – that’s 5pm UK time on the same day.

What can we expect? Well… we’re not entirely sure. Nintendo usually like to pre-announce its big E3 announcements (see: Amiibo, 3DS, Super Mario 3D Land, Wii U), but this time all we’re told is what the firm isn’t showing. Namely, the new console NX, The Legend of Zelda for Wii U (or is it for Wii U?) and any of its mobile games. So… Star Fox?

The event will finish airing by 10pm, when the Square Enix press conference will start.

[Industry news] Core Keeper’s ancient Core becomes a one of a kind gaming PC, to be won for charity

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
