Nintendo left a LOT on the table this E3 for WiiU. And by that, I mean they left out a lot of pending announcements for WiiU --- unannounced. There's a lot they could show that they just, didn't.

No Zelda WiiU footage

They made no mention of Platinum Games involvement with Star Fox Zero during the digital event.

No announcement about anything Retro Studios is doing

No updates on Fatal Frame, Devil's Third, or Project Treasure (are they excluding M-rated titles from Directs now?)

No updates on Project Guard or Project Giant Robot (cancelled?)

No announcement about Tantalus's mystery WiiU project

No announcements about rumored WiiU titles from  Headstrong, Next Level, or Intelligent systems

Nothing Nico Wav (leaker of Pokemon OR/AS, Devils Third) has predicted earlier for WiiU in 2015 has panned out yet (3 new 3rd party exclusives Ninty white-knights plus a remaster) 

Nothing from nobody on Shadow of the Eternals, which only convinces me further that it's some kind of Nintendo exclusive (WiiU or NX)

 

Considering many of these 2nd party partners were last known to be active on the WiiU in 2013 (early 2014 for Retro Studios, but we know their next project started in late 2013) there had to have been more things Nintendo could show, but didn't. So I figure if nothing of this pans out for WiiU by Gamescom, many projects are transitioning from WiiU to NX in some fashion.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016
