This would be the case even if Nintendo had a thousand games to show.

I used to care about who won E3, back when all three companies put all their marbles on that show. But then Nintendo started doing Directs like crazy and I realized I much rather enjoy getting to hear about new games every 1-3 months (in a presentation) than having to wait for annual conferences for them to be announced. Because of this, they obviously can't have massive shows at E3 but that is cool with me. I don't want to ever go back to having to wait a full year to hear about 90% of new games for the device I play. Maybe some of you Sony/Microsoft fans feel differently, but that is my opinion. I like what Nintendo does and is continuing to do. The less they show at E3 the more they will have to show at random points in the year to make it fun in those parts of the year.

ok. let's just pretend that there isn't a company that somehow manages to have a "big show" including one of its own.... five times a year... GDC, E3, Gamescom, TGS and PSX (and that's not even including all the showings they have at every other show year round).

Let's also forget that YouTube channels like PSaccess are there that basically does all year round what a Nintendo direct does in one day.....

Make no mistake, a curated presentation experience isn't the reason Nintendo isn't at every major conferences. 

And what % of games are actually announced at those other events other than E3?

You are joking right?

No I'm serious (tried to do research on it myself, but I can't seem to find % of it). I'm interested in looking at what % of games are announced at E3 compared to all the other events combined.
