One live quartet will play at each demo station.

And that's very pessimistic. Not to mention baseless. If they're not revealing the NX at E3 why would they show NX games? They're struggling badly with the Wii U for sure, but we don't know half as much as we pretend to know about the NX. That's more evident now than ever.

I like your idea better because I hate Nintendo. Their management has no idea to run a business like I do. It's sad, really.

That would require a stage show, which they don't do anymore.
It will be a direct, then an e3 booth for attendies, meanwhile in meeting rooms Nintendo will be sharing details of the NX to distributors and retail executives while fans die foaming at the mouth infron tof their computer screens.

They cited quality reasons for delaying Zelda U so.
It's not out of the realm of possibility.

So... NX not playable? If it's launching 5 months after E3, uh...?
Edit: Just saw the other news.

I don't understand what you're getting at.
5 months after E3? Uhhh... you must have missed the release announcement.

Are you fucking telling me they're gonna fit all of Hyrule into those two lots they got?
this reminds me of what sega did with the saturn. except instead of saying 'the saturn is not our future,' kimishima just said the nx won't replace blah blah blah (meaning, please still buy wii u stuff).
on the flip side, the dreamcast had a pretty positive reception in the us at least. sega of america built up a strong launch and capitalized on it.

They have the room.
You should apply for a PR job at Nintendo. That attitude would fit right in!

I'm not even kidding, Nintendo just shot themselves in the foot. Talk about pissing off your core base. Gonna have to be doing something SERIOUSLY radical and interesting to justify some of the stuff they've come out with today.
Its meant to be pessimistic, its showing how absurd the post I replied to is.
Follow this logic.
>Nintendo delays the NX.
>Nintendo is only demoing one game at E3
>Said game has been in development for many years, and delayed.
>???
>This is clearly the sign of something amazing afoot.

It would mean that they no longer see E3 as the place to announce their new console in full. It would mean they would fully reveal it in their OWN event.
I mean, OK, if you're not revealing it at an industry event you are obviously revealing it at your own event. Thats got little to do with taking the fact Nintendo is demoing one game, an unprecedented low, as a very good sign for future tidings.

The death of a company is what we're witnessing here, folks.
Like, it's true i have no idea what their intentions or plans are but it's obvious that based on these tweets we're seeing, Nintendo doesn't have any idea what they're doing. Maybe they never did. Their existence is likely an accident at this point.
Yet again they're going to have absolutely NO E3 presence. Why aren't they trying to advertise a dead system? Why aren't they trying to advertise their NEW system alongside PSVR and new versions of PS4 and One? It's baffling.

i mean, only zelda would already be an order of magnitude better than past e3
This is probably the strangest E3 related announcement I've seen in the past 16 years. If the NX ain't ready to demo, then you should have a few things ready for your current console at least. What happened to that Paper Mario game?
While I'm excited to finally see Zelda, I was hoping to see Super Mario Galxy 3 (or whatever the new Mario game would be called). And if we don't have a playable Mario on Wii-U for E3, then that means there won't be one at all for Wii-U.
Nintendo had better show us some fuck awesome trailers at the very least.

Expecting the good old ultra-delayed Zelda but still incomplete with plenty of fillers.
You can't defend it though.
