Big missed opportunity as usual

Personally I think no. The scripted Direct E3 events have been much better than stage events. As long as they have Mario Odyessy, Splatoon 2, Xenoblade 2, etc. there they will have a great show. I find sitting through Sony and MS' briefings to be a chore these days actually. Dull and lots of dead space. 

Scripted/pre-recorded keeps everything moving at a snappy pace without listening to person XYZ introduce themselves and blah, blah, blah, just shut up already and show your game, blah, blah, etc. 

I agree, but Nintendo could at least try to get some hype going for their games. I like Directs, but its not very exciting to see two old men in a yarn shop talking about their game...
