I already felt this was gonna be the case as why would Nintendo waste time talking about a failed system they're not even supporting anymore over hyping up the one that still has chance. Out of curiosity I looked back at their E3s before their previous two console releases, and now I'm absolutely positive this will be case. In 2012, the Wii wasn't mentioned periord, certainly no new announcements for it. Even the 3DS barely got any screen time. In 2011, Skyward Sword was the only Wii game, no new announcements. In 2006, the only Gamecube talk was a brief mention that Twilight Princess would still release on it. Super Paper Mario was apparently announced here, on the side somewhere, but we all know what happened to that game. In 2005, the Gamecube had a lot of games still to release, so they crammed them all into a 10 minute highlight reel. Okay, 10 minutes is still more than a mention, but again, that's cause the Gamecube actually had a lot of games. The Wii U has nothing by comparison, as did the Wii in 2011/2012 and we've seen the result of that, even despite Wii being their most successful console ever. Sure if they announced new games then they'd have games to talk about, but in all four of those E3s there was not a single new announcement for their current console except Super Paper Mario in 2006, which wasn't even in the conference itself. Naturally they focused mostly on their upcoming console, especially during the year it released in, which is why E3 2006/2012 are more relevant for how this upcoming E3 go, wink wink nudge nudge. I expect they'll first start off with the Pokemon anniversary and a Sun n Moon trailer, but after that it'll be all about the NX. Oh and no, I'm not asking to make a bet with anyone. :L Here are links to their E3 conferences in question for reference.
