Yeah, Nintendo had a horrible conference in 2008.
And, admittedly 2006 was pretty awesome with the huge line to play the Wii and Zelda: Twilight Princess.
In 2008, they chose to abandon the core gamers especially after their big heads up a couple of week's beforehand that they would be showing games geared more towards the core gamer. I think that between that announcement and E3 something unexpected happened, so they had to change their presentation.
I hope they learned that they need both traditional gamers and blue ocean gamers from the fallout from that.
