To be honest, if they'd shown anything new or unexpected it would have been out of place on the show, which was pretty awful from start to finish.
I don't doubt Reggie knew exactly what else was going to be shown before he booked in to appear at the event. What they got was some free marketing to a crowd in which there still exists a percentage that will be interested in DKTF. Those people are not the same people who watch Nintendo Directs. This is just a timely reminder to the mainstream that DK is out soon.
Finally I wish people would stop acting like VGX is the be all and end all event that it clearly isn't. If Nintendo want to announce new games it's likely to be via ND and then with more mainstream coverage through E3 and the other shows that actually matter. All of that is for nothing if they release games to market without advertising which is hopefully a lesson they have learned over the last year or so.
