Nintendo direct is waaaay cheaper plus they don't have anything big to show that can compete with hardware annoucnments from Sony and Microsoft.

or Apple just simply bought Nintendo.

Wii U is in desparate need of a sales boost and here we have Nintendo just not giving a shit about the biggest gaming event ever.   My mind is blown.

Nintendo realise they have no chance against 720, PS4 and tech demo's of new games.
Its no brainer. Theyre going to have to present another day where they can't be overshadowed.

Honestly this is a good idea but not right now I think.

Press will get the news regardless. People will probably get most info from a secondary source. It is efficient to do it this way so as not to be constrained by conference time.

Its cool, but they need verbosity, not efficiency. Word of mouth can also spread from conference news, and may mellow out if doing smaller events. News will still spread and will get some excitement in the end, but it won't be based much on kneejerk reactions that get ppl talking as much. This could garner more word based off of overhyping in comparison to calculated excitement.

Now it could be because they are afraid of being phased out, but they probably should have done a conference regardless.

Can someone please show me where it says they won't be at E3? That statement says they're not going to have an investor focused showing like E3 2011 and E3 2012. They're going to focus solely on games for both 3DS and Wii-U.

Is that your way of being in denial? There, there, you will get some Mario and Zelda eventually, just dont expect it to be spectacular.
The gaming industry will look at E3 and be amazed.

So what? Point is they have nothing to show that someone that wasn't going to buy a Wii U at some point any way will get excited about. We know the same shit is coming down the pipe. Save it for their Cartoon Direct.

If this is true and they are a no show at e3

then Iwata and Reggie need to go. I'm getting tired of both of them and there bs reasons for making dumb decisions

VendettaRed07

Ninty will be at E3, but they will use a different format ot announce new games for the 3DS and WiiU.

Nintendo is still applying lotion to due to severe butthurt, its down to blind sheep to rub the lotion in ;)
Its not just about Microsoft and Sony showing the 720 and PS4 but developers showing off Next Gen material. PS4 in game footage has been shown already and is taste of things to come.
If you dont want that, then stick to the past and stay there if it helps you sleep at night... and you are in denial.

"At E3 this year, we are not planning to launch new hardware, and our main activity at E3 will be to announce and have people experience our software. Many people are certainly very interested in learning more about the Wii U titles that we are going to announce. We will use E3 as an ideal opportunity to talk in detail mainly about the Wii U titles that we are going to launch this year, and we also plan to make it possible for visitors to try the games immediately. As a brand new challenge, we are working to establish a new presentation style for E3."

Probably they want a more intimate Nintendo centric showing towards Gamers who actually are more interested in Nintendo, rather than a showy glitzy conference. Makes sense that way. I wish Sony or MS can focus on that.

I've seen your "next gen" Ps4 stuff and all I have to say is .... meh, I'm unimpressed. PC's are alreay miles ahead of anything the PS4 has to offer. The same will apply to the 720. Nintendo is dominating on the gameplay fron thas they have for years. The PS4 and 720 are just uninnovative, generic, and boring. 

I wouldn't say that. The social features look cool, but I want games to focus on the gameplay and not graphics.

Or we could use factual information like how Nintendo makes shitty outdated hardware with lame gimmick controllers and 1980s cartoon rehashes.

[QUOTE="TheWalkingGhost"]WiiU R.I.P. This makes it look even less desirable to the market. Saturn confirmed, Nintendo's next system will be their Dreamcast and swan song.mexicangordo

The Wii became popular when people tried it out and not by an E3 conference.

The Wii was popular long before it came out on the market, E3 really help push the system.  Nintendo clearly states, "we are not launching a console," so they do not want a full fledged E3.  Stupid move imo.

Agreed. It's a fully fledged stupid move by Nintendo. If they wanna sell that Wii U box they need to show up big @E3 as it's a platform for major exposure to the masses.
