No, it's to do with audience and what was shown I agree, but Nintendo didn't show anything that would appeal to casual audiences (this sales won't reflect their E3 hype). They appealed to the Nintendo core thus all the twitter and forum noise. PS4 and XB1 showed a lot of stuff similar of course, but a lot of their games, Call of Duty ect appeals to an audience that isn't likely to "spread the word" on twitter or forums.

Not to mention, how many multiplat PS4/XB1 games were talked about on twitter? Those are people talking about XB1 or PS4 (or PC) but not WiiU. Factor that in and it would be largely in PS4 and XB1 favour.

I agree. All fanbases are on the internet, and I believe that this e3, Nintendo gave their fans the most to talk about.

So we agree, and basically DerNebel was again incorrect. It has nothing to do with how WiiU sold but with what Nintendo showed.

No, we don't agree. A fanbase is made up of players, not people who talk on interet forums and twitter. Nintendo's is clearly more online due to who has bought the system (nintendo fans) vs COD type fans who won't be.

Not to mention like I said, a lot of XB1/PS4 peeps talking about multiplatform games, for their consoles, that wouldn't put XB1 and PS4 in their hastag or w/e.

Not that this isn't a silly and ridiculous way to judge anything anyway, but more people were talking about XB1 and PS4 games on twitter, forums and social media, than they were Nintendo games.

Edit - Pretty much already what I wrote out, please don't make me do it again!
