Could moving away from the traditional E3 conference be a smart move for Nintendo?

No Im not saying that.  Obviously Sony and MSFT has the edge with newer hardware but that doesn't mean that it isn't important for Nintendo to show their newest hardware themselves.  Not everybody takes E3 as a competition.  Instead some people focus on each conference individually.

The biggest game event of the year often times gets announcements in news so it would be smart to have announcements.

Theyre going to have announcements. 

Why would they hold numerous Nintendo DIrects without announcements?
