This page contains every prototype on Hidden Palace that was built for the E3 trade show. Useful if you have a bunch of systems/CRTs and wish to recreate the entire E3 show floor in your game room for any given year.
Disclaimer: Some builds featured here were not playable on a show floor kiosk, but rather were distributed to attendees at the event (usually in the form of a press kit).
If you are aware of any E3 demos not on Hidden Palace, please link on Hidden Palace to help consolidate.
There are also entries here for demos that have not yet been found or dumped - you can help get a better picture of the demos that were at E3 by adding more.
