Shradow Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 [url=http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/04/25/no-nintendo-press-conference-at-e3-2013?abthid=51789e3d4382074829000024]Get the full story here.[/url] Instead of Nintendo holding its standard major press conference at this year's E3 event like previous years, NIntendo will be holding smaller events and Nintendo Direct presentations leading up to and during E3, and will continue in the future with the format of their Nintendo Direct Conferences as they have been.

Azuh Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Its probably just way too costly. Plus all the hype will be on the Ps4 and the Nexbox anyway so there's no point in trying to compete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Zero Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 I mean, anything they have to show would be overshadowed. Just change Nintendo time into Pokemon time and they would at least get attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cin Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Nintendo aren't the first to drop out of an industry event especially to hold their own. I believe Apple already do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonk Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 It is more of a wise move on Nintendo's part. Rather than just trying to cram everything into one conference, they decided to make multiple, smaller conferences so that everyone can see what they are doing.

As long as we get some SSB4 and or Pokemon X and Y news, I'm ok with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 This is really really old news, jsuk. They're trying to cut back costs while still getting everything they have out there for everyone to see. There's certainly questions about whether they'll lose more money because the non-core-gaming populace that made the Wii the best-selling console last generation may not pay as much attention to them without the event. Nintendo appears to be trying to focus more on their core gamers with the Nintendo Direct etc. and hoping that they won't need a press conference to reach anyone else. We'll see how it goes.

Tentacruel Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 While I can see why they'd want to do this, I'm skeptical. I think it would still be a good idea to have a conference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 It's safe to say I'll be skipping E3 this year then. Could not give less of a shit about anything Sony or Microsoft have to say because it's the same recycled bullshit we've been hearing for years. New Call of Duty? Remind me why I give a fuck.

Everything that they will be presenting is just a copy of what they did last year. There's nothing new. Nothing. At all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
