I also think Miyamoto should be present. He probubly will make an appearance but his abscense really brings a new Mario or Zelda game into doubt. It is usually Miyamoto who announces those franchises not Cammie , Reggie or Iwata. Iwata makes to many promises I'm still waiting for the new Donkey Kong he announced at TGS 2005. He also mentioned EarthBound for the virtual console but we haven't seen or heard about that since either. Iwata is really good at dissapointing us. Even the black Wii he's holding in his picture never saw release either.
Then theirs Reggie. He's an awsome speaker, he has an awsome reputation and is really good at hyping existing products. He knows how to get to the audience but even he can't make a good game announcement. He's good at hyping existing games or unvieled games but he isn't the greatest at revealing the new games.
Cammie, I didn't like her performance last year. Not because I was upset with Nintendo, just that she wasn't one of Nintendo's big figure heads. I wanted to hear from Iwata or Miyamoto not some new marketing exec. When testing the new games she appeared to be as awe struck as we were as though she's never seen the game before. Her performance wasn't awe inspiring like that of Miyamoto.
Without Miyamoto I can't see this E3 being all that great! But I guess you never know Iwata could actually fullfil some of his promises at this years E3.
