The downside of NX not being at E3 is that it doesn't get to make a splash at an event that the world is watching, but the plus side, that is if they hold a unique event somewhere/sometime in September, means that they can run it exactly they way they want to and have 100% of the attention on them. It's kind of like the pros and the cons when it comes to the system not coming out this November. The con is that Nintendo is missing out on Black Friday and holiday sales…But the pro is that when they release the NX in March, they won't have to compete with high profile third party games exclusive to other systems or other console's having their own first party exclusives, as well as the push for new virtual reality tech. March is a relatively calm time of the year, so if Nintendo does the marketing just right, then between September of this year and March of next year, they can make the hype real and have a successful launch, that will also benefit from developers having four months more worth of development time for their games, to hopefully give the console a strong debut lineup. |
They just need to get all the NX console/games info out there before the holiday season to get people second guessing on whether they want to get whatever microsoft and sony are churning out or pre-order and wait a couple of months for Nintendo and their NX. Whatever they present when the time comes, it has to blow everyone away because anything less than that is going to leave people unimpressed and turning towards Microsoft and Sony.
