People who are actually interested in 3DS games weren't bored. They learned more about how Castlevania and Paper Mario would work, they got more footage of NSMB2 as well as some other games.

and this could not be done with a release of a few dev diaries/trailers and other videos? Instead majority of the time of that conference was showered with absolutely boring PR (seriously who was that guy? He was horrible. I forgot who, but that dev who talked towards the end was much better)

It was a waste of time. They did not have anything that warrants a second conference.

Vita fans learned more about the games they wanted to know more about too you know. Post conference there were many videos talking/showing gameplay for many games. Sony did a scheduled (tho the schedule was changed a few times to accomodate devs etc) and showcased all the main sony E3 games with their devs and asked them fan questions directly as well. Much much better way to handle it.

Funny, I haven't seen anything on the gaming websites I use about the Vita from E3 aside from the 5 minutes it got at Sony's E3 conference, and some of that was focused on a logo...

Meanwhile, Nintendo's 'waste of time' 3DS conference was covered in its entirety with live blogs, instant articles, live tweeting etc.

If E3 is all about exposure, guess which method won.

lol then you are using the wrong websites? You should visit the official website sometime ;) We had all the interviews, trailers etc up there from various sources. Most of the direct material came from sony themselves. I think you have a selective memory or something.

and hey for me E3 is about getting to know about the games I want :) I'm not arguing the fact whether sony did right on vita front 'during' the conference. They didn't and I have expressed as such very very clearly several times. I'm arguing on having a 2nd yawn fest conference when it's not needed. Heck they needed 3idiots to cover up time and even then they could have a 1 hour conference. They even started 10-15mins late. I'm saying sony handled post E3 vita coverage much better than they did during the conference.

oh and ps: Nintendo didn't win E3 :) they messed up their chance with the WiiU two years in a row. Their 'method' didn't win
