are nintendo idiots? do they have no understanding what so ever on how to market their games any more? why did they just saw the next zelda will be at E3? surprise people, let them speculate, not tell them what they are going to see. this will probably be their biggest announcement next year, as smash bros, mario kart and 3d mario are all already announced. they did the same thing this E3 and it killed off a lot of the hype for their E3 show, people simply knew what they were gonna see. they knew smash bros, mario kart and 3d mario were going to be announced.

nintendo when you want to announce a big game, give it the announcement it deserves, dont just say when you will show it 7 or 8 months before. they are literally shooting them selfs in the foot here.

Any informed gamer with a functioning brain knows that if the next Zelda hasn't been revealed by then, it means that it will be revealed at E3. Like another poster said, what change is that we shouldn't expect anything about the next Zelda in the Nintendo Directs aired before E3. Unlike what you are reasoning, I am actually now more hyped for E3 because I was expecting the Zelda reveal to come in an earlier Nintendo Direct.

Nintendo's marketing is bad but it doesn't mean we shouldn't use logic when applying that belief to daily news.

and from nintendo's stand point thats just plain stupid. they basically told everyone who want to know about the next zelda game that their is no reason to watch or nintendo directs if you just want to know about zelda. instead of enticing zelda fans to watch these nintendo directs (that nintendo has been trying to get more traction to) they are telling them there is no need to watch it. any Nintendo direct has the possibility of announcing a new big game, for those aniticpating zelda, nintendo just said there is no need to watch them. how is that good marketing? beats me.

You're getting this almost perfectly backwards. Creating buzz about the next Zelda will get people that care about Zelda alone from Nintendo's offerings to tune in next E3.
