That is indeed the case and it does the job well as jaggies do seem nicely curved, but colour saturation and image sharpness suffers greatly, so the tool has to be used in moderation.

I'm watching them showcase all of the games right now, pretty neat. The new Zelda game looks absolutely phenomenal, and I've never really played much of any Zelda games, nor a single Dynasty Warriors game (what my friends tell me it's based off of). They've got Mario Maker on right now and it's pretty awesome to watch. But a question to be raised, is it going to have a world-wide community-created level browser (or shareable at all)? Would seem pretty silly if that's region locked...
I wanted to do stuff to my car today. Not happening at this rate lol.
There's a noticeable difference between disliking a console and relentlessly bagging on someone for enjoying it.

I see a pattern here...
Wikipedia Guy, Mcwhatevernotfunny and the oner one that also tries to be funny all share the same color, orange.
Yup.
Just the dumb part though...
I had not even commented yet, mainly as I had not seen the direct. Anyway Nintendo was never the main attraction in their own consoles for me, especially on the handhelds, and now they lost that I am happy enough to watch them disappear or, perhaps better in some ways, go software only.
Also good to know Guild can still get them to come out of the woodwork. We had feared his more backseat approach in recent months might have dulled that edge but we would have been wrong.
I don't see what's your problem, I think the presentation was fine, or rather, the Digital Event was since Nintendo doesn't do the stage game anymore. The intro was funny in a cringy way, the Robot Chicken sections were entertaining (even if a tad out of place considering the fact that Robot Chicken is mostly associated with adult entertainment) and they've showcased a modest but sufficient amount of material. I liked Nintendo's event, I expected far less from them this year. That doesn't mean that I'm going to be any less critical of what I think they're doing wrong, however the fact that the marketing team stopped turning around in their seats while playing with office equipment and actually did their job for once is appreciated.
First, I'll give credit where credit is due:
The presentation was solid. It wasn't better than Microsoft and Sony, but it wasn't worse either. I'd call it a three way tie in that nobody presented exceptionally strong material. I'm tempted to give a slight edge to Sony for giving more solid details on PS Now, but isn't as if that was a lot of brand new information.
Criticism:
Nintendo barely gave me any surprises, and even the surprises were hit or miss first party content. The third party games they showed off were things we've known were coming for a long time now and still won't be here for awhile yet, and otherwise it's just different versions of all of the first party games we've been playing in different forms for decades now. The new Zelda just looks like Zelda, big woop, and it was expected since Nintendo has something Zelda related to show off just about every year. About the only third party offerings they discussed were Bayonetta 2 and the new Xenoblade. Even if they are good, that is pretty much all of the decent third party games the Wii U has coming. To me, that doesn't make for a strong presentation, but rather grim tidings for Wii U owners hoping for some recovery with the third party developers.
To end on a positive note, I'll definitely be picking up a couple of the Gamecube controllers when they come out. My old official controllers are getting pretty worn out, and getting new, official Gamecube controllers is a pain in the ass these days. This will be a convenient excuse to upgrade my old controller collection a bit.

Agreeing with most of what Nathan Drake said, although the Toad game was a pretty nice surprise out of nowhere. Initially I thought "meh" and hoped that it's just Super Mario World 3D DLC, but after seeing some gameplay footage it grew onto me. As for the controllers, I hope to get matching four - I only have two Gamecube controllers and they're not matching colours, they're cranking up my OCD to no end for 12 years and counting (I mean the black GC ones with the Smash logo, not the wireless ones. Are those still a rumour?).
It's a shame about the lack of third party stuff, but there's still a lot of great Nintendo stuff to look forward to. The announcement of Uncharted 4 means I'll be buying a PS4 next year anyway, so as far as I'm concerned I'll get the best of both worlds.
Black controllers with the smash logo are confirmed and will launch at $29.99 alongside the $19.99 adapter. No price for Europe (probably just swap the USD symbol for a GBP symbol and add 5.00 for EUR)

I'm legitimately interested to see how long it takes until the GC to USB adapter works on a computer. Would be the first reliable, good adapter for those controllers for a computer.
Also what use they'll have in other games.

Oh man, New Zelda and that Toad game really have me hyped.
Only these two games i'm interested in for the Wii U. Open world Zelda, so much gorgeous details going on and the art style is incredible.
If the new Zelda game delivers, I'd gladly purchase a Wii U.

No they aren't. The majority of their games aren't even for Nintendo consoles.
Edit: Nevermind, guess Nintendo bought them a few years back. They still have tons of support from second party and indie devs though.
Edit 2: You're also forgetting Bayonetta 1.
They've given E3 to the 3DS since 2012 and people complained about not focusing on the Wii U, and the 3DS is fine for now, let the console have the spotlight for fuck's sake
Very strong showing. Nothing was showcased that I had zero interest in. So I'd call it a win of a presentation.
3DS isn't struggling. To show off a lot of 3DS games today would be like trying desperately to get people to eat food from McDonalds.
