Slamfest Bizarre live Smash Bros rumble.

As an appetiser for the main event at E3, Nintendo staged and outdoor Slamfest featuring four of the cast of Smash Bros. Broadcast live over the Internet from the famous MGM Grand in Las Vegas, the scrap featured giant cuddly versions of Yoshi, Pikachu and Kong who together with an oddly human-shaped Mario. Even the ref got in on the act, biting Pikachu's ear and declaring that it tasted “like chicken". Mario shocked us with his low blow antics and Kong knocked himself out with his own magic hammer, but they all wound up best of friends at the end, the match being declared an honourable draw.

Luckily no real blood was shed by Pikachu.
