First of all: Of course Microsoft has been mentioned most. They had two press events while Sony and Nintendo only had one. But anyway, it doesn't matter which company has been mentioned most, because there's a huge error in your reasoning. You make the assumption that being mentioned in the media is automatically positive for that company and that every time being mentioned has the same value. I wonder if BP currently subscribes to this point of view? ;) In contrast to Sony and Nintendo, Kinect had lots of negative press coverage, for example saying that they were only showing Wii rip-offs, that Kinect doesn't work if you're sitting, that many people were disappointed by the games they were showing etc. That's press coverage too, but not the kind of press coverage Microsoft wants. |
Add to this the fact that when you do more than basic news searches, as was done in the OP, you get very different results.
For example searching for platforms and company name:
Nintendo Searches: "3DS E3 2010", "Wii E3 2010", "Nintendo E3 2010"
Sony Searches: "PS3 E3 2010", "PSP E3 2010", "Sony E3 2010"
MS Searches: "360 E3 2010", "Kinect E3 2010"*, "Microsoft E3 2010"
* - We'll give MS Kinect as an extra to keep things even in # of searches (even though that fact is itself an indictment of the theory).
Results:
Nintendo's Total: 100.8 Million
Sony's Total: 93.9 Million
Microsoft's Total: 83.6 Million
NOTE: I decided on ALL search terms before checking and calculating the results for any search/company
My guess is the more search terms used and the better those search terms are, the closer you will get to a fair representation of actual media exposure. But as Arnold pointed out, some types of media exposure are better than others =P

Bad buzz is... well, bad.
Not sure what else can be said here.
Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
wel Micrsofot had their press conf on a day where no one else did, think that might have affected these results.

More power to you!!!
Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.
Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash
To OP: Of course Microsoft would win over Google views. They are deep in the pockets of the American media. I could've predicted this. The majority of people who were at E3 though were gamers. Nintendo won as weird as it sounds.

I guess so.
This is just like all those 'internet buzz' counters you see. Y'know, the ones that show ten times more 'buzz' for Uncharted 2 than NSMBWii or Wii Sports Resort.
Getting a bunch of internet tech pundits to chatter about your product counts for something, but the link between internet babble and people actually opening their wallets is tenuous at best.
