No, for me Nintendo have never won... I just don't like their games....but except for MS's disaster last year, Nintendo have had some really terrible years while the other two have had some mediocre ones :)


Now I'm confused. Your first post suggested that the winner of E3 was based on following hardware sales, but then you say that it's a subjective victory. Which is it?

IMO, Nintendo has the most varied E3 presentations in modern times (since 2007 or so). E3 2008 was quite possibly the worst E3 from the Big 3 in years (let's not discuss it too deeply for my own sake), but E3 2010, just two years later, was in my opinion the best E3 conference of the generation, based on the viewpoint of how many notable games were announced and shown for both the Wii and handhelds. This even included traditional areas of weakness from Nintendo, such as 3rd party games, some shooters, etc.

Dont be confused, both statements can be true. :)

Personally I dont like Nintendo games, so it doesnt really matter how they present, the games are not from me. But from a market point of view, all that matters is does the E3 conference make the console seem more appealing that it did previously and will it over time sell more.. I'm not convinced by that. But the market will speak in the next few months.
