Nintendo Directs are absolutely fantastic.

And your support for the statement that an E3 Direct which interested people view on a stream reaches less people than an E3 conference  which interested people view on a stream is _________________.

That the conference will get a more positive writing for press than a separate Nintendo Direct, casually like last year.

You know, the same press that do online shows, writes in newspapers and webs, etc.

And casually my support it's all the negative press Nintendo has been getting since last year, which also casually fits with the bad sales.

So essentially your position is that Nintendo Directs, which were created because Nintendo believed (with ample supporting evidence) that the press was distorting, misreporting, or otherwise slanting what Nintendo presented at its conferences, are bad because they cause the press to be less positive to Nintendo. In other words, because it annoys a press which already generally poo-poos Nintendo. Is that an accurate summary?

Can you point me please where did I say ND are bad? Because the only thing I remember is talking about how a ND cannot replace a live conference. Not that they shouldn't exist for the rest of the year. I honestly don't remember.

And to solve a problem, flee is not the solution. Nintendo is a victim from their own actions. Press doesn't treat them like poo just because.
