It was bugging me in the other thread because people were equating no conference meaning no presence at E3.
While this is clearly false in an attempt to prove the point that the press cover Nintendo as much as MS and Sony I have been proven wrong.
Just sampling the first 10 pages of Google results and ignorning every website that is clearly gaming centric.
Microsoft post conference mentions: 26
MS announcements of live blogs or conference occurring: 3
Nintendo post conference mentions: 17
Ninty announcements of live blogs or conference occurring: 1
Sony post conference mentions: 13
Sony announcements of live blogs or conference occurring: 14
Microsoft and Sony post conference: 16
Some things to take note of:
Nintendo was being bashed in 3 of the article but at least all of them talk about what Nintendo announced.
8 articles about Microsoft were about the poorly made rape joke with a female presenter who didn't play the demoed game that well and barely mentioned what MS was trying to sell so I would discount their total mentions from 26 to 16.
Surprisingly there were more non-gaming outlets live blogging MS and Sony events so Nintendo is hurting themselves in a small way with that.
The biggest thing that hurts them is how Microsoft and Sony are lumped in together as console makers and Nintendo is almost never mentioned. This lack of association hurts Nintendo a lot. Even though Nintendo is roughly equal to Microsoft and Sony for individual articles, in group articles they aren't getting coverage so Sony and MS come out way ahead.
