I think Nintendo might have unnecessarily complicated their E3 presentations.

How so?

NDs for gamers.

Software showcase and Hands On for the Media.

Business Presentation for Analysts and stockholders and whoever else...

 

Because they are having the same shows, but with a slightly different name. They will still show of games and whatnot and likely it will be blogged / streamed. The only real difference is they've added more NDs. That is what they should have said.

"This year we'll be adding significant more exposure to our fans with multiple Nintendo Directs before and during E3."

That's it. Simple, positive, and so forth. Instead they complicated it with language that made everyone think they'd be doing nothing and so forth. No need to dicsuss the main show at all, just not advertise it.
