Howard Lincoln conducted Nintendo's E3 1998 press briefing. Lincoln claimed that Nintendo's game lineup was the best they or anyone has ever had. He said that the most important thing in a game is its quality, and said that when it comes to Nintendo and its partners, most notably Rare, Nintendo exceeded in this department. Lincoln also discussed the formation of Nintendo Software Technology, a game development studio within Nintendo of America that, at the time of the conference, hadn't opened up yet. He explained that the goal of this new studio was to hire graduates from Digipen.

The most talked about news of the show was The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, which was introduced by Lincoln and Shigeru Miyamoto. Miyamoto commented on the game, saying "I first imagined the world of Zelda many years ago. I imagined it as a place different from the real world, a place where you can do things you could never do in the real world, where you could go places you could never go in the real world, places you have only dreamed of, or had nightmares about. The N64 let me realize this goal. With the dramatic graphics, I hope you feel like you have become Link. I hope you can feel his curiousity, his fear, his sense of danger. I feel the Zelda games are a great adventure book that combines the imagination of the author and reader. I hope you will start turning the pages of this book on the show floor. We are very proud of this game and hope you enjoy it."
