They had a 2-year E3 dominance streak in 2008-2009, but haven't won a one of them since. Last year they were competitive, but ultimately outshined by Nintendo's gamer outreach. This could be their year, though, as the OP indicates.

Zelda alone makes it near impossible without even considering other announcements.

The thing is, you don't need to do poorly to "lose" E3. Just that somebody has to if you're putting them head-to-head. Nintendo had a lot of cool stuff going on in 2000, but was overshadowed by Dreamcast pulling out the big guns to try and fight off the PS2, and the PS2.
