It's the core gamers that watch the live streams, that read up on the internet, that click the refresh button every 3 seconds to see what's announced. Not your kid sister, not your grandmother, not "the rest of the world outside of the core". |
You have to remember that E3 is a MEDIA event. It is no longer an event for the public. While we are definitely concerned about what happens, the main audience is the media. The mainstream media has taken note of E3, especially with Nintendo's recent mainstream success. Then, normal people who check sites LIKE MSNBC read about the event. These people could care less whether Disaster: DoC or Kid Icarus is featured. This is the audience Nintendo is targetting with E3, and rightfully so.
