Forums - Gaming - Digital Event superior to conference.

The Treehouse proves my point even more.

Conference is much more exciting by default.

Sure it is, if you're actually at E3.

I think this is the right way to go to avoid technical issues, long and awkward silences and to get the pacing running perfectly. I don't mind now Digital Events.

OMG to this thread and this post. I think I have finally accepted how low th enintendo fans have stooped.

You know, To avoid technical issues, they could also just do what every one else does and try and improve on their presentation? 

And I really can not believe that there are people that have somehow come to accept that its a good thing that nintendo dosn't show up for media breifings/press conferences. Any one can make a highly polished heavily edited digital briefing. sigh.....

I'll just cut it short.... the only reason nintendo has adopted this strategy, is due to a complete lack of third party support. If sony/ms had a conference where all they had to announce was like 6-10 games  across two platforms of which half of them are trailers for a 2015 release; they would be going digital too.

Really?

They had full third party support in 2012, 10, 09, 08, 06, etc???



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Especially then. E3 didn't get the fame it has because it was a series of digital events.

It got the fame it has because games are on the showfloor for people to try out before they can release. As far as I'm aware, that hasn't changed for Nintendo.

Point is for people who stream E3 at home, the digital event is better.

No, it got it because it was the source of roughly half the industry's news during the print magazine era.

And then came the internet...



After seeing Nintendo's conference I totally agree...it gives much more room for creativity and polish ^.^

That is your opinion and there is nothing wrong with it. Most gamers don't share it however. Digital events are nothing to write home about.
