We'll have the full trailer for the game embedded above soon, but Nintendo spent a good portion of the presentation laying out the combat for their action RTS Code Name: STEAM. Available Spring 2015.

Mario Kart 8 DLC Dated for November 13

You'll be able to dig into the new Mario Kart 8 DLC content soon, and you can read more about it here.

Amiibo integration will take the form of costumes for your Mii Racers.

Kirby and the Rainbow Curse Will Have Four-Player Co-Op

Clay-inspired visuals and an unstoppable rolling Kirby, Nintendo revealed that the official title for Kirby's 3DS adventure will be Kirby and the Rainbow Curse.

The game will also feature four-player multiplayer. The other characters will control Waddle Dees, who are able to move of their own free will, and can even pick up Kirby to help bring him to the finish line.

Amiibo Support for Hyrule Warriors

We already knew that Nintendo's Warriors-themed Zelda game would have some kind of Amiibo support, but today we learned that that will be a new item for Link: the Hyrule Spinner -- a gear like item featured in Twilight Princess, the spinner is a spinning-top that you can use to plow through enemies.

Hyrule Warriors will support other Amiibo figurines as well, awarding you with materials, weapons, or rupees when you connect them to your system. If the figurine works in Super Smash Bros., then it'll also give you rewards in Hyrule Warriors.

Mario and Zelda creator Shigeru Miyamoto is dabbling in animation with some Pikmin-themed shorts. You can also access a demo for Pikmin 3 now, and your progress carries over to the full game. The animated shorts will be available for $5.

New Footage for Xenoblade Chronicles X

Xenoblade Chronicles X will be set in the city of New Los Angeles, and the game will be significantly larger than the original Xenoblade Chronicles for Wii.

Colorful Shooter Splatoon Include Single-Player Campaign

In case you were worried that Nintendo's third-person shooter Splatoon would be a multiplayer-only affair, Iwata confirmed that the game will also have a single-player story. It will focus on "nature's epic battle" between squid and octopus.

Love to see some gameplay of Star Fox and Zelda. Would also like to see more 3rd party game announcements. The Wii U is still seriously lacking there. Hoping they release a Mario Golf game as well. The 3DS version is lacking a bit. I would rather play a Wii U version.
