GTA DS was the only major new announcement, and even that's very likely to be crap. Then again, they announced Brawl as a suprised after all their other conferences a few years ago. There's still probably going to be something interesting announced... sooner or later. I really want my 30 minutes back, though. |
To a certain extent, I think Nintendo believes that their "Media Breifing" is a good opportunity to target people who aren't "Core" gamers because it is (potentially) the only part of E3 which gets a lot of mainstream media outlets attention ... Showing off a game (like Brawl) at a different event or behind closed doors will still get a ton of attention from the dedicated gaming press which will get the attention of "Core" gamers.
