Nintendo’s Comic-Con lineup includes Super Smash Bros., Hyrule Warriors

Nintendo Gaming Lounge returns

Nintendo is calling their San Diego Comic-Con lineup their biggest ever. To me it looks like they packed up their E3 showing and saved it for SDCC. That’s great news as their E3 showing was fantastic.  They’re back at the Marriott Marquis & Marina hotel, right next door to Comic-Con. As always, you don’t need a badge to get in and play any of the games. Here’s what you can expect to play:
