Wait, Ubisoft had a quirky moment at their press conference that was actually sweet and endearing? That's right. Ubisoft's co-founder Yves Guillemot took to the stage to formally announce Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, and whipped the crowd into a frenzy when he brought out Shigeru Miyamoto to say a few words.

Miyamoto brought with him two Mario-themed weapons, handing one to Guillemot as the pair posed for a photo opportunity, to a rapturous response from the crowd. It was incredibly weird, sure, but a rare instance of an attempt at humour actually going down well at a Ubisoft presser. Well done.
