Even though Nintendo's Direct livestreams haven't technically been an official part of E3, they have nevertheless been one of the most exciting and anticipated aspects of E3 week in recent years.

And while Nintendo was in undeniably dire straits in 2015 with the failure of the Wii U, their E3 livestream was still insanely charming, in large part due to a very muppety collaboration with The Jim Henson Company.

The show opened with puppets of Reggie Fils-Aime, Shigeru Miyamoto, and Satoru Iwata getting ready to host the digital event, before they start transforming into the cast of Star Fox.

It got the show off to a tremendously charming start, and clearly took a ton of effort to put together - E3 at its best, basically.
