WonderCon 2015 Coolest

The coolest booths to check out, we have you covered. It's go to be Capcom and Nintendo's, if you want to PAX East, they should look similar. Yes, video game booths will be dominating this years WonderCon. We tried reching out to 20th Century Fox, but no details as of writing this.

What's up with Capcom's. Well, it's designed by the good folks at iam8bit, the video game art house/ advertising...business. And it's the Monster Hunter Caravan we told you about already a few times. This time it'll be at WonderCon. Take a look with the picture provided of walking through it and playing the game. We hope to grab Monster Hunter jerky and other goodies while there.



Capcom has two panels to check out. One just on the wide world of Capcom;Saturday, April 4 • 10:30am - 11:30am and the other just for Monster Hunter;Sunday, April 5 • 1:30pm - 2:30pm

Fans are encouraged to bring their favorite (and most powerful) amiibo figure to the Nintendo booth to enter it into an amiibo tournament featuring the Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U games. Each competitor will sign up to enter his or her choice amiibo into the tournament participant pool on a first-come, first-served basis beginning one hour before each tournament start time. Thirty-two players will be chosen at random for each tournament session from that tournament’s participant pool. Winners of this tournament will win a variety of different amiibo figures, with those coming in first place receiving the Mario – Gold Edition amiibo figure from the Super Mario series.
