This year’s E3 event in June has been canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic. Kotaku published a statement from Nintendo of America regarding the cancelation.
Nintendo E3 2020 response
Nintendo supports the ESA’s decision to cancel this year’s E3 to help protect the health and safety of everyone in our industry—our fans, our employees, our exhibitors and our longtime E3 partners. We would like to express our concern and support for all those affected by the COVID-19 outbreak during this challenging time.”
We’ll continue to be flexible and redirect our efforts to other ways of keeping our fans up to date about our activities and products. Because of the COVID-19 outbreak, large industry events may be untenable for the foreseeable future. But we are considering various ways to engage with our fans and will have more to share as the year continues.
Let’s hope Nintendo does reveal their plans soon.
