With Nintendo I expect the only thing they talk about for Wii U is any unreleased games we already know about and Zelda. They'll show a trailer and gameplay for Zelda and focus on its NX port, then talk about future NX games such as Retros project (I think Metroid Prime) a new Mario, perhaps Animal Crossibg, and any other games they will port over from Wii U such as Smash Bros.
As for the 3DS? Pokemon, any unreleased titles, and NX ports and showing off how the handheld NX will work.
Edit: almost forgot but Nintendos first real mobile games.

Gee, I don't know a little thing called VR?

At this point I expect Visceral's Syar Wars game to be announced.
Interesting, are we sure it isn't called Internal Darkness 2.
NX and PSVR are pretty much a lock.

100 days to Pele.
On Nintendo's side, I expect new device stuff:
...
Bethesda will tease
- NX unveiled
- Zelda Wii U/NX
- Smash Bros. NX (port)
- Mario NX
- Amiibo
- Xenoblade Chronicles NX
...
Bethesda will tease
Elder Scrolls VI.

Not expecting a ton tbh. Won't get much out of the biggest thing at E3 this year, because VR games coverage is worthless without experiencing it yourself.
Extremely skeptical about Nintendo's NX.
Expecting nothing but shit from Microsoft again.
Looking for a PS4 price drop/bundle that makes it enticing to jump on board.
Interested whether PCGamer organises another PC-centric talk show, last year's was kinda fun and filled a hole that was missing for a while.
Can't talk about individual games, I haven't been able to follow the news closely enough lately.

Still holding out for a Shenmue HD Collection as well. I could see Adam Boyes announcing that to tide people over while the wait for Shenmue III continues, but also to garner new fans to the franchise to further ensure that Suzuki's upcoming project is a success.
Basically, if it doesn't happen before III is out, it's never ever happening.

Hopefully some more Wii U and 3DS games from Nintendo for the rest of the year.

Deep Down is not a megaton in any shape or form.
Agent and Crash would be big but.. FF7R, Shenmue 3 and TLG big? We'll never get that again, 3 megatons in one show.

In the grand scheme of things I don't see Shenmue or TLG (And I am really excited for TLG) big at all. Don't get me wrong last year was amazing but those announcements are aimed directly at the hardcore and nostalgia, I think people over hype those announcements quite a bit.

Yea, hence the question mark. I can't think of any others that can reach megaton status outside of Warhawk. (Doubt it'll happen though)
They did. After that day I assume a lot people on Gaf are much older then me

NX, and by extension, quite a few big surprises.
Nintendo
Focus will be the NX of course, hopefully they can gather some decent support for launch besides the obvious port of Zelda U. The BG&E2 rumor would be nice for them if true. DQXI also on NX would be cool for them. I don't have any faith in western publishers supporting them seriously besides some ports of PS4/X1 titles.
Microsoft
I dunno, there seems to be a lot of confusion in the company right now.
They have basically acknowledged internally that the Xbox One won't get the results they were hoping for and they are transitioning to an other business model.
Surely they are working on some hardware revisions but announcements are unlikely to be made in June if the actual products will be released in November since that would kill their business in the meantime.
On the software side I guess that Gears of War 4 will be their main title like Halo 5 last year. A new Forza, Halo Wars 2, the pirates game by Rare, ReCore will also get the spotlight. A couple of new games will be announced. Third party demos for those titles where they got the marketing rights will be at the conference as well.
Sony
I think that a good chunk of it will suck honestly
They have to show their love and respect for their unprecedented partnership with Activision.
So next COD on stage, Bungie and whatever they're doing next on stage.
Then at least 15 minutes will be dedicated to PSVR with new games announced, something similar to what happened in the Paris Games Week conference.
Fortunately after that I also expect many interesting updates to already announced games.
The Last Guardian with a final release date, new Horizon demo with release date, first Shenmue 3 official trailer, new trailer for FFVII remake, FFXV will be close to release date and will be pushed as well. Gran Turismo Sport will get a new trailer, coming in some form at the end of 2016. They also have many interesting japanese games to promote (Gravity Rush 2, Ni Oh, Persona 5, Ni No Kuni 2, new Hot Shot Golf) but E3 doesn't seem to be the right venue for those titles.
Big surprises will be God of War 4, Bend's horror game and maybe the new Sucker Punch game.
The only possible megatons I see are Crash is back, Kojima on stage to tease his new game announcing concept and genre, but it might be too soon. Overall I don't think it's possible to match what happened last year.
I also expect them to be working on a PS4 Slim revision (without upgraded components) but again E3 might not be the appropriate event to announce such things.

What about the Microsoft exclusivity thing they did with Shenmue II? Wouldn't that stop a collection from ever happening or something?

Nintendo is going to be the NX blowout that will leave people wondering how Nintendo will survive another generation. Zelda Wii U is re-revealed and will be a launch title for NX. Talk about their Mobile Games, My Nintendo, and partnership with Universal. Not many games announced to release between E3 and the NX launch. NX launch titles = ????
Sony = PSVR blowout. Price, release date, and launch titles. Hopefully more info on the 'many Star Wars games in development', Horizon: Zero Dawn, and whatever Sucker Punch is doing these days. I have a dream that Bloodborne 2 will be talked about but that's not going to happen and I'm not expecting much on FF7 either. Hopefully a new Crash game is announced but who knows.
Microsoft is going to be on games, Windows 10 games, and maybe something for their HoloLens project. Not expecting any huge announcements here, especially when compared to Nintendo's new console and Sony with their VR.
Agent, Crash and Deep Down?
1 + 1 + 1?
Half Life 3 confirmed.

I'm just being optimistic, there's a good chance it will be delayed. Though the studio has little precedent for delays (only one for Killzone 2 which wasn't because the game wasn't ready but for a strategic reason from Sony)

There is nothing indicating otherwise yet, who knows.
