I disagree, I think a presentation with Mario Kart, Animal Crossing and 2D Mario would be well-received - not by all of course, but by a big segment of the Nintendo fanbase. Sure, NSMBU didn't generate much hype - but that's because it looked basically the same as any other NSMB game. Tropical Freeze meanwhile looked exactly like DKC Returns.

And also, your last statement doesn't take into account the differing expectations of the two events. The fact that it's even possible to say that last week's Direct was better than E3 shows the magnitude of the E3 failure. E3 is traditionally the biggest event by a long, long way for Nintendo reveals, in a typical year.

Strange that "it looks the same" didn't apply to Super Mario Galaxy 2.

Of course there were different expectations for the two events, mainly because Smeags didn't play make-believe this time around. Ignoring that, Nintendo Directs had spaced out reveals over the course of the full year long before this year's E3, so the importance of E3 isn't anywhere close to as big as it used to be a few years ago.

Oh my word, you really are going to push this! Did you consider that "it looks the same" didn't apply to Galaxy 2 because it was a direct sequel to one of the best games of all time? NSMBU meanwhile was the fourth New Super Mario Bros. - and that was a series that never had as much love as Galaxy to begin with. By the way, I remember from the Galaxy 2 E3 that there was plenty of hype also surrounding New Super Mario Bros. Wii, announced at the same time.

If they're always excited, that means I am more right than the OP, because he isn't right about half the things he claims as far as I go. Even if we look up old threads he's claiming the E3 2013 digital event was negatively regarded. Completely not true.

I rest my case.


How is the initial hate of 3D World any indication of E3 2013 hate?

In fact:

3DWorld is not on the same level as Galaxy. Hyperbole maybe, but Galaxy is clearly way superior to 3DWorld.

As agreed upon as that opinion might be, that doesn't mean 3D World was a bad game by any stretch of the imagination.

Nobody is saying it is bad. I have completed 3 times. But is inferior to Galaxy.

Also, with the textures and lighting in the game, it looks much better in HD than I ever thought possible. I figured the art direction in that game would make the jump to HD look pretty small. Glad I was incredibly wrong.
