To some of course but I'm pretty confident that most Nintendo fans aren't Zelda diehards. :L

I have a feeling Nintendo will announce some form of Smash brothers Deluxe for the beginning of 2018, Animal Crossings is probably on the radar but I seriously believe we will have a surprise from them and a third party line up, I hope Switch gets FFVII remake, I mean those 2 Cloud amiibos are really random no?

Nintendo shows metroid. Nintendo wins E3/end.

It's going to be tougher this year.

If Nintendo shows a lot of games (especially big third party ones coming to the Switch and some new good exclusives) they could easely win this E3. But they really need a strong showing to keep the interest flowing high as it does right now

Microsoft needs to showcase more than just the power of Scorpio, they need good exclusives. And not just new Halo, gears or Forza, they desperately need new IPs in different genres. If they can bring this and Scorpio not being too expensive, this E3 could become a big win for them. But they really need to deliver all this lest they could get squashed between a rock and a hard place, ie Playstation and Switch.

Sony needs games, games, games. Interesting and curious games, games with mass appeal and more niche games all alike. That's basically what they do each year, but they need to up the ante with the Switch barging in like it did on the console market. And not dabble too much into VR, lest it steals too much screentime for the other games.

Never watched the publisher's showings, so i'll exclude them from this analysis

Numbers of new AAA  games E3 2017.

Sony             5 ~ 7

Nintendo     4 ~ 5

MS                2 ~ 3

What I want to see happen among the third hardware devs: Nintendo > MS > Sony

What will probably happen: Nintendo/Sony > MS

I just want to see all three companies pushing one another. Sadly, doesn't look like MS is interested in that arena this gen.

Nintendo. Not only because they're my favorite but because I really prefer the Nintendo Direct style presentations over the live shows.

What's crazy is......MS actually has THE BEST chance to win because there has been absolutely no noise from their camp in......well a while now. If they come out and drop some BOMB shell games they have been working on in the dark along with Scorpio they could steal the show. That's a a hopeful wish because my XB1 has not been touched in a while outside of some KI with my boys.

But my head says that it will be Sony that is consistent but Nintendo that SHOULD win with the Switch recently being released so they should have a few surprises up their sleeves.

Sony will win this E3. Their upcoming games already look very promising, and I'm sure they'll have one or two aces up their sleeves. Obvious loser will be EA or Ubisoft. Their presentations only get dreary year after year

Worst will probably be EA, they have already set a reputation of being pretty bad every year
