Re: Nintendo Lifts The Lid On Its Plans For E3 2014

I can understand why people dislike the approach of using a nintendo direct, but in reality; it may be a better solution for Nintendo.

For starters, being on the main show floor allows more people to see what's being shown off. This can also mean that most internet-based blunders can be avoided (to a degree) such as the buffering issues that both Battlefield 4 and Assassin's Creed 4's trailers had at the Microsoft and Ubisoft Conferences last year.

However, as many have said, the announcements are the most important factor. At this point in time, Nintendo NEEDS something exciting to get people to become more likely to purchase a Wii U. Announcing more DLC for a current game just won't cut it this time.
