You can play the Nintendo E3 demos at these Best Buy locations

During the recent Nintendo Direct event, Nintendo revealed that they would be partnering with Best Buy locations around North America to deliver a number of playable Wii U and 3DS E3 demos for fans.

Today, Nintendo sent over a list of the locations which will be participating in this event and the dates and times that the games will be made available.

Specifically, the 110 locations will feature the Wii U and 3DS demos from 4 – 8pm on June 12th, and 1 – 5pm on June 15th.

Games shown at the Electronic Entertainment Expo video game trade show are usually playable only by the few industry insiders who make the trip to Los Angeles each year. But Nintendo and Best Buy are teaming up to make sure people across North America can get their hands on a select list of Nintendo’s E3 games. Demos of the games will be playable at 110 Best Buy locations, including 89 in the United States and 21 in Canada. The games will be playable 4-8 p.m. local time on Wednesday, June 12, and 1-5 p.m. local time on Saturday, June 15.
