E3 2015 is great for news and announcements and all that good stuff, but it's also an event to just go out and have some fun. So with that in mind, today's the big day for the Nintendo World Championships. The event is being broadcast live from the Microsoft Theater (once known as the Nokia Theater as recently as a week ago) at 3PM PT! Your host is former Attack of the Show co-host Kevin Pereira.

These are your contestants:

  • Sinister1 (speedrunner, known for taking on Mike Tyson's Punch-Out blindfolded)
  • Cosmo (speedrunner, recognized for setting obscene Ocarina of Time records)
  • TheMexicanRunner (NES completionist, the man that has beaten all NES games ever)
  • Bananas (speedrunner, recognized for her Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons run)
  • Essentia (speedrunner, known for her Final Fantasy runs)
  • Trihex (speedrunner, known for his Yoshi's Island runs)
  • Jovenshire (from Smosh Games)
  • Arin (from Game Grumps)
  • The eight winners from the Best Buy qualifiers held a few weeks ago

The Legend of Zelda and Splatoon will be among the games on display, with six other secret games on the docket. The event will be preceded by a Nintendo Treehouse presentation. The full stream is available below. Enjoy!

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
