If Sony or Microsoft only showed one game at E3 they would be burnt

If Sony or Microsoft essentially showed off one game at E3 like Nintendo did, they would be completely castrated by gamers, whilst Nintendo seem to have gotten not only a free pass, but immense praise! Yes Zelda looks good but it is one game! If Sony just displayed The Last Guardian for the whole entire show heads would roll, someone at Sony would be getting fired.

Nintendo fans are like this:

Nintendo shows only 3 games - That's ok, why do we need 10? We need quality.

Nintendo shows only 1 game - That's ok, why do we need 3? We need quality. This game is top-notch. The best game evaaaaaaaaaaaa

Nintendo shows only half a game - That's ok, why do we need 1 full game? Nintendo is focusing on quality, no problem if they delay it for 10 years.

Nintendo shows nothing - Blast E3. E3 isn't important any more. why they need to show anything?

 

Among the big 3, Nintendo is still the worst performer at E3.

Technically they showed more than one game, but I get what you are saying.

The thing is...
they got burned.
HARD.

But that was a month abo when they warned everyone: "Hey dont expect too much, were just showing zelda, not NX or anything big, that stuff will come later!"
From what I heard most if not all fans were pretty pissed.
Heck, I still am!
We've been waiting to get more Info on NX for what feels like eternety, finally its 2016, the year of new infos on NX, and E3 is around the corner!
After they showed so little last year they probably have tons for us now right? I mean theres no way in hell that they are not showing NX at E3, right?

RIGHT?!?!?!?

So, yeah that was pretty much my reaction when they told us about it, but since then I had enough time to accept it and get used to the thought.

If they had only shown that first trailer and maybe a standard-length (20 minutes) playthrough, we would have grilled them alive, but they showed us some 5+ HOURS! A whole day nearly completely dedicated to nothing but Zelda awesomness!
For me personally that helped immensly, even more because I know: Theres more! Not only have they barely scratched the surface with Zelda, the whole NX announcement with all the other games they have been working on is still coming!

Also, lets face it: Zelda looks friggin awesome!

Thanks for being able to read between the lines and replying intelligently. I do agree that Zelda does indeed look amazing, probably the best iteration since Ocarina of Time for me.

Yeah, People cant read between the lines these days. Nintendo was only about Zelda and in my opinion, that wasn't THAT extraordinary. That Zelda is just Nintendo finally deliverying a modern open world adventure game with cute graphics.
