Yet they talked about Smash Bros and Lego City for Wii U last E3, and Animal Crossing, and Luigi's Mansion for 3DS.

Nintendo could have really stood everyone up this E3.

True! Well, tell that to Khan. He seems to think that they don't touch on games or important releases that are scheduled past the year of E3.

Depending on how far we can take this, Nintendo really did screw up its presentation big time.

I think they did.

When Nintendo announced the Gamecube and showed a preliminary lineup, there were 12 games, most of which good, which released within the year Gamecube launched. Metroid Prime, Eternal Darkness, Wave Race, Luigi's Mansion, Pikmin, Smash Bros, Starfox Adventures, NBA Courtside, Disney's Magical Mirror and 3 other's (all exclusive). 4 of those games released with the system or a couple weeks later.

All we know about Wii U is Pikmin 3....might be a launch title.

 

However is this a bad thing? DS launched with only Super Mario 64 DS and Metroid Prime/Advance Wars came a full year later. Wii launched with a Zelda port, and within the year it launched we saw only 4 major Nintendo titles (Galaxy, Kart, Smash, and Metroid) and a game originally intended for the cube (Super Paper Mario), yet those two systems were the most successful Nintendo systems yet.

 

It's just odd.....I knew more about the 3DS and Wii U last E3 then I do at this one.
