And to think, only a few years back, people thought Nintendo opted out of E3.

 

Wait, people still think this?


Uhm, okay. So what really happened? And; yes, I still think this.

So that huge show floor display they've had the past few years (nearly 2 decades really) and already have booked for this E3 is just a figment of everyone's imagination?

Or do you mean they fact they no longer have a physical Media Briefing?  Which is technically a separate event from E3 but most people don't realize that.  To say nothing of the fact they still do a media presentation (just pre-recorded) and actually do more E3 events through the weeek (Tree House Live for instance) than any other game company.

Still think that?

Opted out of a traditional E3, then.

Should have been more clear. It was clear that they changed their focus and wanted to do their own thing, this is also around the time they started with their ND and put more emphasis on that rather than the bigger gaming conventions. This was partly due to their thinking that they received unfair and somewhat biased press coverage (which is/was also partly true).
