I'll probably watch Microsoft's and Sony's (and Nintendo's of course). Might watch EA's for Star Wars Battlefront. Ubisoft's I'll probably ignore entirely. Bethesda I'll watch depending on when I get home from my Disneyland trip.
Battlefront died when they decided to make it an FPS
Currently Playing: Steamworld Heist, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, Tales of Graces F

It was always Battlefield with Star Wars weapons (right down to the excessive glitches and poor balancing!), so being in First Person wouldn't be that big a deal. I mean, there was a First Person mode in Battlefront 1, I used it all the time and it worked well.
If it ends up anything like last year I'll watch Microsoft and Ubisoft's conference, catch up on Sony's conference in the morning (starting at 2am is a bit too late) and finally watch all the Nintendo streams live while at parts of Treehouse Live I'm not interested in playing Mario Kart 8 (I'm not too sure Splatoon would be suitable for that task). Note that the only parts of Treehouse Live I was bored of last time was pretty much everything on Codename STEAM (generally streaming strategy games doesn't work well) and the Smash portions on the last day (too much focus on Smash and not enough focus on Splatoon).
Virtual Console stuff isn't likely to happen at all. The next handheld is still another year or two off.
Given that the New 3DS launched extremely recently and was virtually designed to extend the system's lifespan discussing the next handheld at this point would be counterproductive. I'll give it another year at least.
@Sanya, Nah, use that for a brand new announcement (coughMetroidcough). Show off Star Fox first to get people hooked. Throw Zelda in somewhere in the middle. A presentation that starts with Star Fox, has Zelda in the middle, and ends in a surprise announcement/Metroid? That's a damn good presentation framework. Use Mario Maker/Mario 30th anniversary stuff, Devil's Third, Xenoblade Chronicles X, this year's Pokemon, the inevitable Animal Crossing U announcement (we all know it's coming ), Rodea the Sky Soldier, possibly the new Fire Emblem (not sure how much 3DS stuff outside of Pokemon and/or Rodea will be shown in the main presentation), hopefully SMT x FE, and then a surprise announcement or two (Next Level Games?) to fill out the rest.
Imagine a presentation that goes like this:
Star Fox w/developer's story
Mario Maker/Mario 30th anniversary stuff
New game announcement (budget title like Captain Toad)
Devil's Third (possible dev story)
Zelda U w/ developer's story
Pokemon
Animal Crossing U
amiibo news
Rodea the Sky Soldier
New game announcement (Next Level Games?)
Xenoblade Chronicles X
Fire Emblem (maybe)
SMT x FE (maybe)
New surprise announcement (Retro Studios/ Metroid).
I will be very annoyed if the majority of what was promised last time hasn't yet been delivered. (I don't like liars be they people or companies).
As far as Nintendo goes, they will have delivered most of it by E3. Smash Bros, Bayonetta 1+2, Hyrule Warriors, Pokemon ORAS, Captain Toad, Code Name STEAM, Kirby and the Rainbow Curse (err, not in Europe), Mario Party 10, Fossil Fighters Frontier, Mario vs DK Tipping Stars, Splatoon, and possibly Yoshi's Woolly World (if it's an April title) will all be out by the time E3 is here.
Only Zelda, Star Fox, Devil's Third, Mario Maker, and Xenoblade Chronicles X will be unreleased by that time. Those are the only ones from last year's lineup that will be in this year's lineup.
As far as other companies go, well most of it will be present again.
Do you all know if they ever have performers at E3? I would really, really really love to play video game music at events like these (E3 would be the BEST) but was wondering if they even do anything like that? I'm talking something casual, like a piano by an entry way to an event, etc.
Well, I'm curious for all of them, as I play music from all the consoles. Not like anything big, or sit-down type concert, more just like, background music
