Everyone Was Talking About Nintendo At E3 2014

#NintendoWon

Beautiful!

Cool. Thanks to Reggie and Iwata fight.

I knew Nintendo was gonna blow it out of the park, but not by such a huge margin.

47% of all tweets? Holy crap, that's impressive!

Oh, hang on. Unless nobody tweeted about anything other than video games last week, looks like that's just 47% of the game related tweets? Still good though!

#Splatoon

This also counts all the negative Tweets. Would have liked to see some examples of those here.

Half of them where talking aboutNintendos new white Playstation 4

That Super Smash Brothers Invitational tourney doh. Should have just did that and tell everyone about the new releases next E3 to keep the winning streak going.

I enjoyed E3 this year, I cant wait to get my hands on all these upcoming games especially what Nintendo had to offer.

Makes sense, a lot of people enjoyed what Nintendo prepared and it went off better than last year for me at least. Looking forward to an even better E3 in 2015.

Looks like the Hamburglar had a bunch of kids

@Mahe as does any tweets about Sony, Microsoft, so what's your point? I doubt they were all glowing with praise... and why would you like to see some of the negative ones here?! You probably tweeted them anyway!!

Not surprised at all. Nintendo and Ubisoft were the most common E3 related topics circulating on my Tumblr dash, I barely saw anything related to Sony or Microsoft unless it had to do with the other two. A good number of those posts were about popular tweets too.

The response to Splatoon is what really floored me. Within two days of it's announcement, it's tag was already filled with TONS of fanart, new fanblogs, and posts from people hyped and excited for the game. Some have even made T-shirts and plushies! Nintendo has a real potential smash with this one and hopefully they're getting all their ducks in a row for a big merchandising push.

I think this E3 done what last E3 didn't, show people Nintendo were serious about the Wii U and would not abandon it due to low sales and bad press.

Spatoon+Treehouse+Zelda+Smash tourny = win

Splatoon might be the first online multiplayer game I play after a long time. I was definitely impressed by this Nintendo's showcase this year. No surprise that it was the most talked about event of E3 everything going on especially the continuous coverage via Treehouse that kept the interest going.

Looking forward to all these announced games being launched

@Mahe Only no news is bad news. As long as they're in the spotlight who cares if it's negative or positive. I'm sure only like 2% of that was negative.

Good. Now.....when is the next Direct?

@electrolite77 Yeah there's been so much copying Nintendo's successful ideas. Whether it works for them or not is a different matter as some ideas haven't worked well for them (e.g Microsoft's Kinect).

Now I patiently wait for an early August direct to remind me of the E3 hype......Fall and Winter releases seem so far away.

Don't underestimate Iwata's ability to bring the HYPE.

@Mahe It is incredible, I am reading news on this site for more than one year now, and you are everywhere, on every possible article, keep claiming how much the Pad sucks and how much Nintendo is bad.... and you even claim you are a WiiU possessor.... so what? we know you, either a troll or just a silly money-waster, so please either change your screenplay and add something new to the planet Earth or please, just move to Xboxlife or Pslife definitely.... can't read anymore the same s***t going on and on on every post.... no-one is changing his mind, u r just flaming....

Duh! What do you expect when Star Fox was even announced before E3 even started for them?

@Spoony_Tech .... 2% coming from "who knows who".... Mr. "WiiU Gamepad causes thumbs-cancer"

Yeah, most of what I saw from my friends and friends' friends was generally along the lines of, "I may just have to buy a Wii U."

Nintendo impressed me so much this year that I feel like a complete moron for selling my Wii U now, cause there are lots of great games coming that I really want! I knew before that I wanted a Xbox One, but I never thought for a minute Nintendo would show such good things that I would want a Wii U more then anything.

Nintendo easily won E3, with Microsoft being a second. I have no clue who the weirdos are that though Sony won, I personally thought that what they showed was pretty pathetic

Nintendo completely destroyed E3 this year in my opinion! Lots of great games were shown, and a fair few of them aren't too far off from being released.

@Bensei, lol, almost forgot about that misprint.

Uh, vague stuff right there. Who knows how many of those tweets were even positive? What if most of the tweets with Nintendo hashtags were actually negative (no Metroid, no F-Zero, where the hell's StarFox)? And don't forget that all companies present on E3 use these hashtags as well. Also, grammar is barely present on Twitter, Facebook, and the like, so I wouldn't wonder if some people misspelled it entirely.
To be honest, this stuff indicates nothing except that too many people use hashtags for communication.

And, just for the hell of it: SPLATOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!

Very impressive victory for Nintendo!

Everyone won .... except Mother 3 fans.

@Genesaur That's what I've been seeing as well. It seems like the Wii U is finally hitting its stride, with Mario Kart 8 a few weeks ago and a successful E3.

Nintendo won.

And to the Xbots and Sony Ponies (sorry I just had to use this here), HATER GONNA HATE SPLATOON.

SPLATOOOON WINS

A lot of Splatoon everywhere... Someone will need to clean up the mess, be it with water or vacuum... Should we consider Mario & Luigi: Sunshine confirmed?

@Splatom Im a brony and i don't even know what is a sony pony are you insulting them or giving them praise? Can you tell me what it is.

@midnafanboy Insulting, sorry if it's offensive to bronies. I'm not one myself, but I think it's fine to be one. I don't hate bronies.

@Splatom Oh its insulting them huh thanks for telling me.and dont worry. I know you dont hate bronies i just wanted know.

Great news to read after a year-plus of doom and gloom (Nintendo will fold, etc, etc.)! But the ship's still carrying water, no time to get complacent; full octane - keep pushing games and innovation and a 3DS-like turnaround will come to fruition for my beloved U...

@Mahe I bet you do. You're probably hoping for a showcase of one your many trollish hatespeeches

On topic: Good to hear. Nintendo definetly deserved the attention since their E3 was pretty amazing.

#SplatoonHype

It's not surprising at all that Nintendo got so much attention since they did have longer show than other companies. So yeah, obviously when you stream for several hours a day people are going to notice and talk about it.

Nintendo kicked major ASS this year.
Especially that opener with Robot Chicken then the now famous Iwata VS Reggie scene to show off Miis in Smash Bros.
Then when Kirby and the Rainbow Curse came on, I wept in happiness.
