Mini-games based on Zelda, Luigi's Mansion, and more will be showing off the Wii U's capabilities.
Nintendo Land has been recently announced for the Wii U at the E3 press conference.
The game is a theme park-inspired mini-game collection featuring games based on various Nintendo franchises, such as The Legend of Zelda, Donkey Kong, Metroid, Animal Crossing and Luigi's Mansion. Mii characters populate the land, donning different costumes for each of the games. These mini-games will utilize the Wii U GamePad's features. The final game will come with 12 mini-games in total.
One of the games shown off on stage was Takamaru's Ninja Castle, a target-hitting game similar to the ninja throwing star tech demo shown off at E3 2011. The multiplayer experience was also described with the game Luigi's Ghost Mansion, puts one ghost is in constant pursuit of the other players, who must work together to defeat it using communication and their flashlights.
Nintendo Land will be compatible with the Miiverse social networking feature, which will be explained later during a separate demonstration. The game will launch alongside Wii U later this Holiday season.
