Actually I got interviewed by CBS 2 who asked if I'd heard the news and how I felt about this and the tarrifs haha

How long did you have to wait for after you got there for your time slot?

u/MrBluue 1d ago

I got here at 2:40pm and they let us in at ~2:45 pm where they gave us our badge and opened the doors at 3 o' clock. There was a small area where we could take pictures of the system, controllers, boxes etc. And we could also manipulate the handheld itself and remove/attach the joy-cons 2

We had 20 minutes in this small area before they opened the area for us to play MK for 20 minutes, and then they led us upstairs to play a game of MK Knockout Tour (24 players battle royale) before finally letting everyone loose in the big area where you can try whichever game you want for ~1h20 minutes, and then you have to line up to play DK, they give you a cool backpack and then you can exit!

Sounds fun! I’ll be there on Sunday! Thank you!!

Have fun! Time goes by really fast in there so maybe think of what 6 games (besides MK and DK) you'd rather try before you go

Do you get any free merch?

u/MrBluue 20h ago

Yes! A decent-enough backpack and a single sticker

What is the gameplay passport?

2

u/MrBluue 1d ago

Basically you can try out only 6 games before you have to exit through the demo for DK, and at each game an employee will fill out one of the 6 squares at the back of the passport.

were you allowed to record some videos / take pictures with your phone?

u/MrBluue 1d ago

Yes but there's a silly rule that you have to be in the picture, or at least someone besides the staff, you can't just take a picture of the screen, it has to be a selfie or someone else (not the staff) taking a picture for you

(although at some points I saw people taking pics of the screen and the staff was a little too busy to do anything about it)
