In the first week of March, there will be more than just a ton of snow in Boston as video gamers will venture into the city for this year’s PAX East. Nintendo will be joining the masses in Bean town to show off their new 3DS as well as up-and-coming games like Splatoon and Code Name S.T.E.A.M. Showgoers will be able to give the New 3DS a test run if they haven’t already gotten their hands on one. Nintendo recently went to the first PAX South in Texas to show off the New 3DS as well as Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate and the Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D which was a huge success.
PAX East has become one of the bigger game shows/conventions in the United States. Nintendo always wants to give the fans at the show something memorable as well as the latest products to try. It should be interesting to see how the E3 build of Splatoon and what is shown at PAX East differ. This demo will go a long way in showing what to expect from the game and if the game will be ready on time. PAX East will be the first time many gamers will get to play Splatoon and they will be in for a real treat. It’s Nintendo’s answer to the shooter genre and plays/feels like a Nintendo game. There are ink grenades that blow up as well as giant ink rollers that cover the ground in ink in this capture the flag/cover as much land as possible game.
To all the PAX East showgoers have fun and enjoy!
