You just explained how they are half out and then said they are not really half out, "in that sense" which makes no sense. You also failed to mention that many of Nintendo's biggest announcements come after E3 (like SNES Classic, DOOM, Wolfenstein) when they damn well could have come at E3. Nintendo has definitely scaled back and had one foot out the door but they are still present and they do give some effort. They are pretty much the definition of "half in, half out" if you give it further thought.

If your definition of a big announcement includes ports of Doom and Wolfenstien, then it is no wonder that your willingly ignore all the other stuff Nintendo does at E3 (far and beyond what even MS and Sony do in some cases).

Not all companies use E3 for their biggest announcements: Sony haven't either in some cases too.

not doing a live conference is not an example of Nintendo of showing disinterest in E3. Maybe initially when it first happened, but the have actually ramped up their E3 presence in the last couple of years quite significantly.  If you do not think so, then that is cool I guess.

1) SNES CLASSIC! If your definition excludes the biggest announcement of the year and the best selling hardware of the year being announced just days after E3, then it is no wonder you willingly ignore how Nintendo is half out the door.

2) I know that. But that is not the goalpost we are using here.

3) I did not say... you know what, it is clear you do not know what, "half in, half out" means as you are only focusing on one half of the equation. Since I already took into account Nintendo are still half in from the beginning, nothing you said added anything to the conversation except your blatant willingness to ignore the other side of this coin. Which is fine, I guess.
