Directs don't reach people who aren't Nintendo fans which is somewhat retarded.

Alright, since you kids can't help but bring up pointless topics unrelated to the OP, I guess I have no choice but to go with it. :L

#1. How do you know that?
#2. Even if true (it's not), so what?
#3. How are they supposed to go about about announcing their stuff that doesn't involve the internet?

If those tidbit trailers were actually aired on tv with a link to nintendo.com/direct shown afterwards for the full show that would help.

Snipped out all the irrelevant filler, and we're left with a vague answer to question #3.
So they're supossed to announce games n stuff on TV on a regular basis? Have they ever done that? Has Sony or Microsoft ever done that? I've certainly never heard of this. Advertising their games on release is of course a no brainer and something they've been doing, especially now, but game announcements n features and all that stuff really don't belong there, as 30 seconds is not nearly enough time.

You're convinced directs do a good job selling games, good for you, sales say different. Most people still dont know what the system is, a year later how is that excusable. Im sure Nintendo Direct is just as foreign a concept. Im N ot saying they should scrap it, but they need ways to access peope who dont log onto youtube to specifically watch a direct (i.e. ninty fans and core gamers). I didn't buy a Wii U with the intention of it being a nintendo only machine, 7 of my 9 games are 3rd party. I already didn't get Rivals which is a shame as Most Wanted was a damn good port because of poor sales, and things are going to get worse, much much worse. This makes me quite upset, knowing I wont get support on this system after two or so years and will have to buy another console to experience console exclusives. Given I only own 2 nintendo games I really shouldnt have bought the thing.

I like how your entire post had nothing to do with mine.

Funny, seeing as I address your point in the first bolded sentence. The second is for  Asriel. The Wonderful 101 had an entire direct dedicated to it, how did that turn out? All the games shown during nintendos 3rd party reel during E3 direct, how did they sell? Skipping E3 was a bad discision in my books. Bayonetta  would have much more profound effect on the public there than on directs. You think the likes of Destiny, Watchdogs and Battlefield getting centre stage at Sony and Microsofts events is a dumb idea? Wonder why the Wii U version of Watch Dogs is the only version NOT in th preorder charts? Going to the stores was the best idea they've had in a long time. Perhaps the games at direct should be demod once a month at large retailers, hell I dont know. The current strategy ISNT selling 3rd party games. It failed the Wonderful 101 do you expect Bayonetta 2 or X to be different? Answer that and I will shut up and peacefully leave this thread.
