Nintendo - Nintendo won e3? - View Post

I've got to say Microsoft>Nintendo>Sony, looking at it. A very close race, the likes of which we really haven't seen since 2007, which was a very narrow (imo) Sony win.

Breakdown:

Neither Microsoft nor Sony have the edge for games in 2014, but Microsoft leeches ahead with Halo 5 Beta this year and the Halo collection, which will be big. Their 2015 lineup had about as much impact as Sony or Nintendo's further-out lineups (Scalebound counters Bloodborne counters Xenoblade X). Sunset Overdrive got a very good reception, meanwhile, and looks fantastic.

Nintendo kept their show very tight (where Sony slipped up), but more importantly shows a dominant lineup for 2014, while some titans line up for 2015 as well. Honestly, dearth of third party support is what keeps them behind Microsoft, as again, their lineup for the holiday is tops.

Sony slips just behind due to having roughly equal proportion of "wow" content to Nintendo's (their top-level game got about as much, and as significant, screentime as Zelda). They've got a solid lineup too, but nothing that really stands out ahead. Weak lineup for this year and a preponderance of ports and multiplats among their more significant titles keeps them back.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
