And this is just the beggining.

 

Stepping out of what's become nothing more than an over-the-top spectacle for bragging rights is likely the smarter move for Nintendo, especially since there seems to be less of a need to directly compete with Microsoft and Sony.

Quite. The headline seems negative while the content of the article is bashing E3 itself more or less.

We've had this mystified view of E3 for far too long, honestly. It's always been as superficial as it has become, just now more people, more companies, are starting to wake up to that fact.
