Looks like there's no Direct this year for Nintendo's E3 showings. Instead just a Treehouse livestream of Zelda gameplay.

Holy crap! Today's real megaton is that more than two people can have the same first name.
Welp, looks like they've gone one further than skipping the stage. They've skipped the Digital Event too. :/

Also, no hilarious Mega64 announcement....
 
Considering NX is less than 12 months away, you would think they would want to start the momentum for fans to get interested. I don't care for Zelda games so I guess I will skip it.

What? Really?

I thought we were at least gonna get a direct. I was expecting Sun and Moon to be shown off.

Zelda better be amazing then. This is absurd.

Why don't they wanna show and build hype for NX? Zelda is equally far away and they want to build demand for that so that can't be the answer...

This is even worse than I expected. You'd think that Nintendo would at least do a Digital Event for the few 3DS & Wii U games they have this year. Hell, we should at least get something for Sun/Moon.
 
Hilarious. Not even bringing 3DS games? What fresh hell is this?

If someone had told us E3 2016 would be worse than 2015 for Nintendo, we would have laughed. And yet, here we are.
 
Really embarrassing. What happened to the Nintendo that I used to love?

Even if they've got neither games nor consoles to show, they could at least do another Nintendo World Championship tournament. It was really fun to watch last year.
 
This is really weird. It feels as though they don't really want to do e3 this year (Due to NX prepping) but have to attend as they're one of the "big three". I'm so confused...

NX got delayed to March 2017, so all their reveal plans got delayed, and thus they had nothing at E3 but Zelda. That's what happened.

Can't believe I'm saying this, big nintendo fan, but fuck this shit.
I expected at least a small direct with nothing really interesting.

If it's just treehouse, I don't care. Will wait for some people uploading footage later.
 
They are totally in a position in which they can make themselves look even more miserable in front of the entire industry like this, lol.
Good luck to them somehow fixing their completely broken public perception during some NX event later in the year, when VR and the Sony/MS revisions already have full mindshare and are on people's preorder list. If they are honest about NX in March, it should have been at E3 regardless. Now they just make everyone believe they dun goofed again.
