Nintendo officially laid out its plans for the upcoming Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) 2017.

While the gaming giant normally keeps a low profile during the annual video game trade show, which is normally dominated by other firms like Microsoft and Sony, Nintendo will still make its presence felt by coming up with a pre-recorded event that will be viewed on its website.

Based on the schedule posted on Nintendo of America's Twitter page, the E3 2017 schedule of Nintendo will kick off with a spotlight on the upcoming games of the company's newest gaming console system called the Nintendo Switch, including "Super Mario Odyssey." The event will start at 9 p.m. PDT / 12 p.m. EDT on Tuesday, June 13.

The event can be viewed live on http://e3.nintendo.com on the said schedule.

It will be immediately followed by another event called "Nintendo Treehouse," where members and developers of Treehouse will present their games for both Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS.

Then on June 13 up to June 14, the company will conduct two live tournaments from the Nintendo E3 booth. It includes the 2017 "Splatoon 2" World Inkling Invitational and the 2017 "ARMS" Open Invitational.

Nintendo of America President and COO Reggie Fils-Aime also offers further information about the company's plans for the upcoming trade show on their website.

"Our various E3 activities will showcase the next steps for Nintendo Switch, from a summer of social competitive gaming to a holiday season highlighted by a milestone Mario adventure," Fils-Aime stated. "With Nintendo Treehouse: Live at E3, fans at home can watch in-depth gameplay of Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS games launching this year."

The website also reveals that more details about the company's plans for its E3 2017 activities will be announced as the days draw closer to the event next month.
