At E3 2011 Reggie and Iwata we're just walking around Nintendo's booth talking to random people.
I'd be like "OMG your Reggie and Iwata
".Yeah...Also, there will be nothing that will surpass the Wii U speculation threads. The reason I joined GAF...
Hahaha Go Bea--that would be unfortunate
Sorry to disturb you guys, but this is a gif of friend of mine.
Oh yiss, that's really good! ^^

IL only has one, really lucked out that its like a 10min drive.
No awkward conferences makes anyone fresh looking I guess.

Ah ah! lol funny!
Makes sense.
It's coming...
Dammit, wait, let me deposit my Rupees first.
I always assumed it was to do the press conference and pretty much have the show floors open soon after for people to play the games.
It's coming...
The Triforce has been formed. It has begun. :3

I've been thinking.......what if Nintendo has another year of luigi themed wii u game in the works? I think it's a little too soon for a Luigi's Mansion 3, or a 3D Luigi, but what if the next Mario Platformer's plot (lol) has a heavy Luigi focus like M&L Dream Team?
Reggie's one of those guys who if you saw him in public, you'd feel an uncontrollable urge to try and tackle him to the ground, just to see if you can take him. I'm not even one of those musclehead d-bag types who pick a fight with people -- I'm as gentle as can be! But Reggie has that "come at me bro" look... Nay, that "come at me bro" essence. When he's not neutered by a watery-eyed Direct, he's the very spirit of "come at me bro."
Plus, his pockets are probably lined with those rare Clinton bills worth a billion dollars.

I SEE IT!

...Although now, I wish I didn't.
*chrono01 plays the Song of Time*
Wait, now I have to wait an additional three days!?
I should have just let the moon crush me.

Yeah, it looks hungry, too. Tell Reggie and them to watch out!
Does this count???
Closest you will get.
Just noticed the darker colored guy behind Miyamoto works at Nintendo too, he's been in a few Directs.
Super Luigi 64U! Miyamoto's shirt tells that tale!

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team
Luigi will be playable in the next 3D Mario.
I see that guy at my best buy from time to time, he gave me Kid Icarus cards but I could never remember his name
Cool finding some new videos, never seen this one with Trinen and Skyward Sword.

So I watched that HipHopGamer episode about Nintendo not having a press conference for the first time now. And it's really interesting in hindsight. Enlightening, even. Because contrary to what people believed back when they announced they wouldn't have a big press conference, it actually doesn't look like they try to keep a low profile. At all.
At this point, it appears they're taking what the Nintendo Direct concept was all about in the first place to the next level: Talking directly to the consumer, or potential future consumers. Which is actually pretty damn clever in light of things. They don't seem to try to impress the media, they don't seem to try to please 3rd party publishers, they seem to be about their customers. We get all the information first, unfiltered, through open networks. At least that's what it looks like. At the same time, this approach gives them a ton of control.
This only works if they manage to impress us, of course (which shouldn't be all that hard as expectations are fucking low) - because they expect us to spread the word. That's obviously risky, but it also feels honest. It feels like the polar opposite of the Xbox One reveal, and even the PS4 reveal was tightly scripted and very one-directional. It's subliminal messaging. Risky but brillant - if they manage to pull it off.

A 3D Luigi-centric platformer would be neat. Maybe they could finally bring Daisy along again and revisit Sarasaland, too?

I don't see luigi galaxy happening. The Wii u needs big titles and id bet Mario sells more than luigi.
Like its been said, luigi is probably a playable character in the next 3d Mario.
I'm still hoping it'll be co op.
Heh. I'd like to see Luigi's adventures in Paper Mario: TTYD realized into a game. Where did he go? The Waffle Kingdom? To rescue Princess Eclair? Something like that.
Man, that entire game was awesome. [/digression]
That seems to be it exactly. They've been talking about getting the information straight to the consumer for a while now and the Nintendo Directs are succeeding. Having it replace the E3 conference, when they have said before that E3 has turned into an event just for the mainstream media, is just the next logical progression
No, it won't.
Because all the mainstream people watch gaming-centric TV channels? Come on, that has never been the case.
The Nintendo Direct, and the specific closed press event in E3 itself, will be covered by the mainstream media which is where people will get information.
The general public don't watch E3 presentations, they just get the details of them from their standard news sites
Only Microsoft and EA's conferences are being broadcasted on TV to my knowledge.
I believe the direct are for Nintendo enthusiasts and they have a separate closed doors press event at e3 for mainstream media
