The first 500 people in line will get to play the hotly anticipated Legend of Zelda on Wii U before anyone else.
In the spirit of E3, Nintendo is letting 500 fans on the East Coast get their hands on a Legend of ZeldaWii U demo before anyone else. The special event is being held at Nintendo’s New York store location, and sign-ups begin on June 11 at 9 A.M. EST. The first 500 people in line (with a parent or photo ID) will receive a wristband granting access to the gameplay demo.
The Nintendo NY Legend of Zelda experience kicks off on June 14 from noon to 3 P.M. EST with Nintendo Treehouse featuring a live screening from E3. Immediately afterwards, the first Zeldafans with gameplay appointments will go hands-on with the demo until 8 P.M. EST. The remaining appointments will follow during regular store hours for the rest of the week.
If you’re not lucky enough to be one of the first 500 in line for a wristband, the Nintendo NY store will also be offering guided gameplay presentations for everyone between June 15 and 19, as well as hosting a trivia event.
The Legend of Zelda Wii Uwas recently delayed to 2017, along with confirmation that the game will be releasing concurrently on Nintendo’s mysterious new console, the NX.
