I can't wait to see The New York Time's extensive analysis of Littlebigplanet 3.

LittleBigPlanet 3?

Yes. Obviously these unannounced Sony first-party titles are more important to the mainstream media than a new Mario Kart game.

They have to be, because they're being shown in a live broadcast and not a pre-recorded one.

Do you have a point to share? Because your comments makes no sense...

Sony will show PS4 games (everybody is expecting), the price and a released date... all the consumers and media will be looking at Sony in E3.

Microsoft too with the add the Microsoft is the only with the most to show and impress at E3... everything about the Nextbox... I think they will have the biggest show.

Nintendo... well they won't have a conference... that says all.

Nintendo is going to have at least three conferences. You're the one who makes no sense. You think the media will completely ignore games like Mario Kart (over 30 million sales on Wii? I don't think so), 3D Mario (over 10 million on Wii, try again), and Smash Bros (also over 10 million), just because the venue has changed.

Nintendo is still having a conference with journalists. They are also still broadcasting announcements and new footage to online viewers. They are also still going to have demos on the show floor. They are also going to be unveiling new, never-before-seen games.

Like I said, I'll make a bet if you can think of one.

That already happen for all companies in every E3 plus the Big Conference.

Nintendo is not doing that this year... that is the difference... everything else was part of the E3... the lack of a Big Conference just shows Nintendo will not have news enought to announce at E3.

Is it so hard to understand?

Me? For now I'm the only having a reasonable discussion here... it is becaming hard to understand how can anybody defending Nintendo for skip the E3 conference.

For me No E3 conference = No big news enought to hold a conference.

That is BAD and not GOOD like some guys here in the forum thinks.

They'll prob be plenty of news from nintendo, but they aren't doing a traditional e3 since they have to go up against the ps4 and xbox infinity announcements. There conference wouldn't be able to compete, so they choose a diff approach. Though, I don't it's a particularly a good idea. They seem to be just kind of giving up competeing directly at e3 against ms and sony this year.

There's only one person here having trouble understanding right now, and it's not me.

Come on. Let's bet on it. Nintendo unveils at least two as-yet unannounced titles during their E3 conferences, which include Nintendo Direct presentations airing within two weeks of E3. AND they will receive press coverage in 95% of the publications covering other E3 news -- how that will work is, you show me one publication that discusses Sony and Microsoft's conferences but not Nintendo's, and I'll show you 19 publications that do include Nintendo in the discussion.

Nintendo held no Tokyo Game Show keynote in 2011, but right around that time got the news out that Monster Hunter 4 is going to be 3DS exclusive. With a precedence like that, you might want to reconsider your position that no conventional showing equals no big news.

Im sure that was about the time Nintendo wrote Capcom the check, im sure Capcom did not do the game out of good will.

Excluding brand-exclusive publications, right?



I can't wait for E3 this year, the potential for butthurt has never been higher.
