didn't they say they'd have a large E3, though?

 

It's soul-crushing. Have they not learned a single thing? I thought this would happen, and reading this to confirm my beliefs still leaves me with a huge feeling of disappointment. I really like the Switch too. I just hope this E3, no matter how small, shows us some new info for games we're not aware of yet, though my guess is it'll be probably 70% Mario Odyssey, 10% Arms, 10% Xenoblade Chronicles 2, and 10% random 3rd and 1st party ports.

Reggie did promise us a big E3. Right now, according to official nintendo sources, that's looking like a lie. I'm quite devastated honestly.

 

Small press conferences and their recent methods of handling E3 have not served them well, least in public opinion.

It looks like they want to focus on 3DS as equally as the switch, if not more, and that sounds like a terrible idea. I thought it would be prudent of them to shift all their resources into making games and advertising for the switch, but they want to keep up the momentum the 3ds has apparently. The lineup of the 3ds for this year is quite nicer than what we have going for the switch as well.

That report is a good read. Or a bad one if you're expecting a lot from Nintendo and their handling of their home console.

 

gimmie gud prices nintendon't pliz

 

Seems like pretty bias reporting. Just because they wouldn't be on stage, doesn't mean they wouldn't have a big presence.

 

that doesnt necessarily imply a press conference. their e3 presence includes everything from them at e3, so the direct, the treehouse stream as well as their show floor space

 

i hack because i don't have moni to buy 'u'

 

How on earth did you come to that conclusion?
The statement quoted just reads that Nintendo will once again will not be holding a literal "large scale" presser, meaning physically large, i.e. a stage show with lights, sound, screens and actors.
This statement is basically just confirming another E3 Nintendo direct and has nothing to do with the content of whatever they're planning.
I'm doubtful it'll be anything particularly exciting either but jeez what a reach.
