True, trailer + release date for either game would be great... but I can't see the benefit of doing it at VGX, rather than as a Nintendo Direct. The people who would be interested in Bayonetta 2 are already aware of it, and mostly the same is true of X. So a Nintendo Direct would be sufficient to grab their attention.

What's more, both Bayonetta 2 and X are angled a little more towards Japanese audiences (and thus would benefit from an announcement that happens worldwide), while VGX is an American thing. I expect that Nintendo are making an appearance at VGX to show off something specifically geared towards American audiences. Part of me thinks it'll be an FPS, something that might go toe-to-toe with Halo/CoD/etc.

You will be surprised, both of the original games sold way better in the American market:

Bayonetta: 880k in America, 220k in Japan

Xenoblade: 400k in America, 160k in Japan

Also MANY people don't know about X, hell the game don't even have a definitive name, and it looks "mature" enough to interest the people who watch this channel.
