No E3 Conference for Nintendo this year - Mistake or not?

TP was not even an introduction trailer, and we already know the epic reactions.

We also got epic reactions for Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and that was not part of a mainline Nintendo live conference. It was a seperate event for the press (which we will still get, based on last year's E3). We also got epic reactions for the X reveal (and yes while it wasn't "heard" like the TP reaction was, the announcement still reverberated across the internet), which was part of a ND. Again, not live, not part of an E3 Conference.

Obviously we're not going to change our mindsets on this issue, but I'm siding with Rol on this one.

They already covered the E3 with a big conference. There was no need to announce it. This time they are in need.

A little marketing for their console won't hurt. And a E3 conference is exactly what they needed to market just a little and give confidence to consumers.
