Nintendo are in the perfect position to actually win E3

[justinian]

Win E3? Whoever "wins" E3 is highly subjective mainly due to fanboyism.

E3 is about creating hype. It's about grabbing the attention of the headline writers. Who does this best "wins" E3. It doesn't matter how this is done. It can be games, peripherals or simply announcing facts about a new console.

Pretty much every journalists have pushed the Wii U to the background. Games were never really going to be the major factor this time around at E3. It was always going to be about pricing, launch dates and DRM regarding the new consoles. That's what forums around the world are buzzing with today. Games then follow.

No matter what Nintendo do today tomorrow's headlines and thereafter will still be dominated by those factors and wii U will be once again pushed to the background because this E3 is far more than about just games and price cuts.

A badly selling console written off by most is probably ripe for further attacks of negativity no matter what nintendo does.

Let the next few hours tell the story.
