They could just, you know, do a bigger show than the last couple of years :P .  They are allowed to do that.  I just don't see them doing it sooner since they know that when the NX is announced, they have to do it big and when they do it's going to cause Wii U sales and the sales of many Wii U games to drop like a rock which will only further hurt their bottom line.  So E3 is ideal.  Big stage to announce the NX that comes a while after Star Fox, their last big spring release.  Yeah, Tokyo Mirage Session #FE will be hurt but then again, that game's appeal is very specific and those interested will likely buy anyway (the silver lining of being cripplingly unique and niche :P)

Maybe, but running over time into another conference may make viewers leave. Especially if it overlaps with S-E or something. Once the console is announced, its really dangerous waters to expect people to stick around for games unless every single one is knock it out of the park amazing. Or they could actually buy more time and push everyone elses events back....I don't know... Maybe... Don't really see this happening...

Well, I could see them doing a minor pseudo reveal in May.  April is too soon after Pokken and overlaps with Star Fox.  Also it leaves May as a big gulf between the small reveal and the big E3 blowout.  But May is kinda empty.  They could at least show the hardware and maybe a tech show to make people hyper interested so that they can keep everyone's close attention at E3.
