Square Enix. I'm interested in nearly all their games shown on this e3.



Around the Network

No More Heroes III and Panzer Dragoon on Switch. Plus so, so much more. Nintendo easily took this E3.

Nintendo obviously, but Square was a comfortable second.

MAJOR points go to any conference where half of it isn't some rando on stage spouting ten minutes of corporate speak about "we strive to deliver innovate experiences with incredible worlds, compelling characters..." etc. bullshit that literally no one wants to hear. Just shut up and announce games and possibly go into detail. 

Microsoft was better than usual (not saying much though, to be honest), but the biggest takeaway was a bunch of games that Microsoft pretended are exclusives and another console is coming that's just more of the same with a launch title that's the sixth installment in a series that's fallen from grace without the developer that made the series good involved. Meh as per usual.

I genuinely feel the Nintendo model of "Hi, I'm an important Nintendo guy. Welcome. Now here's a montage of a bunch of stuff you want" E3 is the future (though quick, silly prerecorded videos with Nintendo's signature humor never hurt anyone) and I think Sony and to some degree Square Enix saw the writing on the wall with that. On top of all that it's just breeding ground for awkward memes.

E3 was so bad this year that Sony won by not attending...



The GAMERS won. *looks at the GAMERS and nods*

Nah but probably Nintendo.

Around the Network

Nintendo with the best games, Devolver with the best conference (as usual)



MS edged out Nintendo, because MS had more cool shit to talk about. The only exciting thing to come out of Ninty's presentation for me is Zelda. MS teased their new console and XCloud, and they really dropped some huge news with that $15 price tag on Gamepass Ultimate.



Really no one won. E3 has been disappointing for a while now.



Lifetime Sales Predictions 

Switch: 151 million (was 73, then 96, then 113 million, then 125 million, then 144 million)

PS5: 115 million (was 105 million) Xbox Series S/X: 57 million (was 60 million, then 67 million)

PS4: 120 mil (was 100 then 130 million, then 122 million) Xbox One: 51 mil (was 50 then 55 mil)

3DS: 75.5 mil (was 73, then 77 million)

Yeah, this. I mean I think the longest someone was talking in the Nintendo Direct was then they introduced Doug Bowser as new head of Nintendo America with the CGI-Bowser with a tie. And at Square they talked - about the games they just showed while explaining more about said game. That was great. Compare this to Bethesda that really unveiled the new IP Ghostwire Tokyo only with name and logo and then talked and talked and talked and my hype died down and as they finally showed a trailer I didn't care anymore.

I didn't like Devolvers show this year as much as last year, but still very funny and the idea of a Nintendo Direct clone was great. Great mentions of musical performances at E3. Limited Run tried to copy Devolver in doing something strange, but it was awkward.

Sony. They didnt attend, but still managed to be as present and better represented as some of the actual participance.
