I feel that Nintendo really needs to go back to a showcase where the company themselves could directly communicate with consumers and its loyal fans, without the lens of "teh hardcore media" interfering with their message. I'm not saying completely abandon e3 (Although I'd like that...even though it doesn't make business sense), but go back to saving the absolute top Nintendo games for SpaceWorld like in the past. I also think that allowing the general public to play the games further allowed Nintendo to directly speak with its audience.

What do you guys think?

Of course I would love it if they did so, but do they need to?

No. Not at all.

I do want them to, though.

Nintendo should bring back all the tournaments and TVshows and all the stuff around the NES that made it a phenomenon.

What is spaceworld?

gurglesletch,

It's a Nintendo only event where they showcase their upcoming games, It's similar to E3. But they will not do nor do they need too. It's too expensive but it will hype the heck out of their games.

well they did have that fall conference instad, but didnt have one this year for me reason

It would be nice, to have a guaranteed yearly event for Nintendo hype and only Nintendo hype.
