My statement wasn't really exclusive to Nintendo, but yeah if one party becomes very vocal then it's not surprising that the movement against that party becomes very vocal as well.

Or maybe the noise from e3 has nothing to do with the U's sales and the vocality of the fanbase, but with the content shown at e3.

Just maybe.


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 was going to type something different here, but then I realized that I don't really know how this was calculated.  What exactly counted as e3 tweets?  Do all the tweets that came from the developer roundtable count?
