No.

Nintendo's 3rd party support is increasing (not as quickly as PS3/360, but still there).

If this were 2008 and what we saw in E3 2008 was E3 2007, than I would consider it (as there would be no muramasa, dead space extraction, NMH, Red Steel 2 etc to look forward to).

They have already announces enough games for me this year so definitely not "giving up" on Nintendo.

Hell I skipped last gen and would have skipped this one had it not been for the Wii (and I later purchased a DS and now DSi) and I already have too many games to buy for the thing (and even more for the DS) so I'm fine. I probably won't even get too worked up about E3, i think i'm off though (monday and tuesday) so I might be able to see most of it though.

Seriously Nintendo could say "Hey here's WSR and 10 3rd party games you already know about - oh btw we rule and sell 10x more than anyone else - /end of conference" and I would be more than satisfied.

Hu? No amount of crappy Wii musics will kill the inevitability Zelda/Mario/Metroid. Thats i stick w/ Nintendo, the games keep coming.

@SJGohan, I am totally with you on this. Skipped last gen. but wiimote control was just too damn tempting.

People put way too much stock into these shows. Why would you give up a console because you don't like a press conference?

@shanobi
Because their releases have been VERY lack luster the past year. Punch Out finally came out, but I'm not crazy over it. I guess that's my fault, though. I didn't say I would give up on the Wii...I'll still buy all the great games coming out for it. It's just that Nintendo's secrecy (I dream it is this) is CRAP. Worst idea ever. They don't show us anything and haven't released any "big" games since last year.

@dodece
I agree. For me, giving up on Nintendo would have me buying an 360 as a secondary console. But of course, Wii will be my favorite...no thanks to Nintendo.

I made this thread because recently, the Wii lost any connection with Nintendo for me. I have only played 3rd party games for the last 6 months, so Wii=/= NIntendo for me. I hope they change that this Fall/holiday.

I really, really, really want to play another game as epic as Metroid Prime 3 or Twilight Princess. Pikmin 3 would make me soo happy.

@Hyperion: That's exactly how I felt after last E3. But now I'm just waiting for this E3, not expecting much though as you already realized.

I think they have a decent enough excuse for last year. I believe Wii Motion Plus caused Nintendo to hold off on some core titles so they could be redone with the improved controls.
Also given how 1st party titles had dominated the Nintendo software sales early in, it allowed some attention to go to 3rd parties, who then didn't have to go up against a Nintendo title.

This year, however, they have no excuses. Wii Motion Plus is almost out, 3rd parties have now had 3.5 years to make their big Wii titles and Nintendo has clearly been working on some of the big franchises. So if they don't have any big franchise titles then I'll be pretty disappointed, but I think they have a good chance of being the big winners of E3 and have good potential to blow Sony & Microsoft out of the water.

I bought a 360 when the Elite came out. I bought it because I gave up on shooters for the Wii. I wanted my Halo fix and a couple good online shooters which the Wii has lacked. However my Wii never started gathering dust I never put it in the shoe box. Infact at Christmas I bought a new HD TV so I wanted a Blue Ray player. I bought my PS3 to use as a Blu Ray player in total I own two games both which I was horrifically dissapointed on.

My first console my Wii has been played so much that it now makes a loud noise and used so much as a GameCube that the top flaps have all been broken off. My 360 hasn't red ringed yet so you know I don't play that much and my PS3 other then a Blu Ray player just sits their looking pretty.

In the end the first console I bought is the only one actually being used.

Nah, I'd never give up on Nintendo.
