Gamernode: News - Nintendo to Attend the E for All Expo

Nintendo to Attend the E for All Expo

The scope of this year's E3 convention may be drastically scaled back, but other organizations are trying to fill that void for the game industry. One such event, the Entertainment for All Expo, is starting to shape up as a viable contender in filling E3's shoes. According to Business Wire, E for All has snagged a big fish for the event -- Nintendo.

George Harrison, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Nintendo of America, said, "The E for All Expo supports Nintendo's mission to reach as many types of consumers as possible to expand the world of video games to new audiences. Our Wii and Nintendo DS systems are all about gaming for the masses, and the E for All Expo will give consumers a chance to try out the hottest new Nintendo video games."

Unlike the E3 convention, E for All will not be a closed affair just for game industry professionals, but will be open to the general consumer, as well. The expo will be held at the former site of E3 -- the Los Angeles Convention Center -- and will take place from October 18 - 21. For further information, check out the official website.
