This is what happens every damn year. The media goes in wanting one specific thing from Nintendo (which is now apparently an epic Zelda presentation with a date to release this year), and if they don't get it, Nintendo is damned for the following year.
Certainly last year showed that. They wanted Zelda back then, too, and even though they got NSMBWii, Galaxy 2, and Other M, Nintendo's conference was "disappointing"
Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
