Hi guys,

So now E3 is done and dusted I want to see what you guys made of our E3 coverage this year. Hopefully you noticed the massive improvements we've made over last year: site uptime and load speed was much better than last year, even though we had more than twice as many users on the site!

With that said, let's hear anything else you have to say about our E3 offering. What was good, what needs work, that sort of thing!

Thanks all!

The site was great! Got all my E3 needs met from NL alone so that's good. The auto updated comments were fun especially for the 3DS conference. I used to be very loyal to gamespot back in the day when Phil and the old gang were all there but now this is the only site I use for gaming updates and reviews so I'm also proud of the website.

Q: Will Corbs be doing any 3DS floor demo impressions write ups for this year ?

That's awesome! I love reading anything he writes up on 3ds games as I think we have similar preferences and likes there. Looking very forward to it as I plan to play a number of them upon release.

I think this year was really good.

The improvements made behind the scene really helped out (800+ comments on a single page), and I'm sure that NL got a lot of hits.

James and all the staff have to be commended on the amount of effort they put in. The videos, livetexting, 1am tinychats (writing reports on 3DS software after 3am D:) were all great.

It's a shame that the conferences were disappointing because the coverage on NL (and its sister sites) were far from that.

The only issue and it's a really small issue (I <3 you corbs) I would have is that we haven't heard much from Corbs. But it's hard to complain when understandably, one man covering Nintendo, Sony and Kinect can only do so much and I look forward to reading all his impressions over the next few days. Also, he is still keeping up his E3 appearances.

All in all. NintendoLife has once again blew us away, and I look forward to the next year of stuff.

Yes James and crew you all should be proud of your work, not just for E3 but every day/week/month/year that has passed since the beginning of NL you all put in the hard yards and dig deep for the cause so I commend your efforts and hereby grant NL the King of all game sites until the end of eternity. Cheers everyone. Peace

PS - I thought there was nothing wrong with Nintendos E3 showing and I will be getting alot of those games for my shiny new WiiU and I look forward to reading NL reviews and I hope you guys and gals are as excited as me about it

Great job all around. Hosting the live streams, adding the auto-comments — both great. I'm sorry i missed the live Ask James tc! Also, big kudos on the reaction video(s) and articles, as well as throwing up the smaller "tidbit" write-ups for people who didn't have the chance or time to watch the Ninty conferences but wanted to know the bullet point highlights.

The E3 coverage here gets better evey year, and i can't imagine getting (or even wanting to get) news on Ninty's announcements, games and info anywhere else (and that includes Nintendo's own self-coverage).

Cheers!

Awful. Why didn't Corbie break into Retro Studios HQ and find out what they're working on? He just went to that boring press conference instead. smh.

aside from that it was pretty good though.

Outstanding job! IGN has been my favorite site for tracking E3 ever since the N64, but you topped them this year. You guys had news and previews up before them, and even had more content than IGN Wii did.

Nintendo themselves ended up being the best source of E3 news with FaceBook, Twitter, and Nintendo.com, but you guys were the best after Nintendo.

You guys did an amazing job, I'm still working on getting a new CPU so I used my Ipad during the conferences you posted and the auto update comments were working smoothly. Also you posted so much I felt like I didn't miss a thing. Thanks to all of you for working somhard and keep it up.
