Even if E3 blows for Nintendo, the already announced line up for 2017 from Nintendo, a few third parties and a shit ton of Indies, I'm more than happy. My backlog is already 7 games deep.

Edit: As much as I love you Sega, this announcement was useless. xD
Not if they stick with the stupid party bus thing. Online multiplayer would also be nice.

Looking back at past E3 presentations, you kind of see why E3 2015 was so bad despite it being a bit longer and having 15 games. The opening bit took more than twice the length as E3 2014's. The Star Fox talk with Miyamoto went as long Smash did in 2014 despite much less communicated about the game. They also gave one of the longer bits to Yoshi's Woolly World, a game that was featured in the pre event to the Nintendo World Championships the day prior and was talked about in the previous E3. Tri Force Heroes alone, got more screen time than Breath of the Wild had in the year prior. Skylanders and Super Mario Maker also diverged a lot from the games. They should have left off some of these trailers too like Yo-kai Watch and Mario Tennis Ultra Smash. In 2014, the dev stories were actually relevant and better framed the game whereas in 2015, they were a lot more trivia about the game and the series.
Anyhow, I think they are a larger shift towards the direction had with E3 2014 for this E3 though with fewer dev stories

"Hello, we are making games, goodbye."
I expect 10mins minimum On Super Mario Odyssey.
I think we all need to be real. Nintendo won't have that many games to show off. Hopefully there will be an exciting announcement but don't get your hopes up. It's fine though.

Titanic was called the Ship of Dreams, and it was. It really was.
I'm not holding my breath this time. Nintendo hasn't impressed me at E3 since 2010, and even that had some disappinting bits.
The last one I really loved was E3 2007, which everybody else hated. I just thought it was hilarious and perfect, loved Wii Fit. Was expecting the Wii Health Pack to be the new Brain Age craze for the West. I wasn't disappointed. The Balance Board was unveiled really well.
Even though I've always been a huge Nintendo fan, I have to admit this year my eyes are on Sony and Microsoft. Although it was clearly Blue Ocean, the Wii was Nintendo in war mode. I don't feel that way about the Switch.
It's just a great console. It's different, but it's not incredibly disruptive.

It's short, but they can still pack a lot in that time. Jump right into the games without Reggie, Koizumi, Shibata doing any introduction. Show edited versions of trailers with the full ones appearing on their official channel later. This isn't actually uncommon. For example, at last years PSX the GTS trailer they showed was only 58s while the full trailer was 2:13. Don't spend time on Splatoon 2 or ARMS given that both have been shown off quite a bit already and they'll obviously have extended showings during the Treehouse stream. Have a section that starts with first party games, goes into third party and ends with some sort of big first party announcement. New Metroid, Earthbound, Retro title or whatever. With that it could be pretty solid. Plus Nintendo isn't a stranger to announcing big titles after their show. I'm sure everyone remembers that after their E3 2012 conference they decided to announce Kamiya's new game (W101) on a GameTrailers livestream.

Going to need dat mario and luigi rpg news asap
They never do at E3, regardless of the duration?
It's not happening, dude. If it was, last Tuesday would have been the time to reveal it.

Nintendo doesn't get E3 and fans who aren't exclusive to them.

Most Nintendo trailers are in the ballpark of 1 minute to 1 minute 30. Those times are in line with directs in 2013/2014

25 minutes is a shame but as long as I get my Fire Emblem Warriors gameplay at treehouse, I'm good. Since Hyrule Warriors ended up having one of my favourite OSTs ever, I neeed to hear some of the arranged and original music - even in snippet form!
I'd think a Animal Crossing thing would be in there.

I already had a hard time getting hyped for this E3, but a short 25 minute video? Q_Q
It's gonna be 24 mins of Mario. Then, in the last minute, Koizumi tells us that while we were watching the presentation, Nintendo has uploaded on their YouTube channel new game trailers, developer stories, and gameplay walkthroughs of 15 announced and 10 unannounced games.
"Merry christmas, everyone. Now go open your presents."
These are his closing words, before the presentation ends.

FTFY
this will be perfect
At this point that a Mario oyou show as last time for zelda would have been a better choice

I was able to hold out hope at 30 minutes, but 25 is pushing it a bit. Here's hoping that it goes longer.
If they've really got nothing big other than the stuff we already know about, it'll be a disappointment for me.

Spring Man is a later reveal in a later direct. Honestly half the reason why I think they'll announce Smash at E3 is to get to kickstart the Smash hype train

They still have the treehouse to show games that were not teased during their spotlight thing. We already know Splatton 2 and ARMS will get plenty of coverage during their dedicated tournaments, so they could spare having full-lenght trailers for them.
My hopes are high for the new retro game during the spotlight !

Would be nice...it feels like Atlus is closing out the 3DS with those remakes and the SMT anniversary project. It'd be nice to see something of the latter in particular, but god knows I'm hoping we start to see Atlus's extended Switch plans sooner rather than later, with SMT HD at the center of that.

Retro is a maybe, but you forgot to mention the new Metroid is for 3DS.
metroid dread at long last.
My heart cant take it. There's no way that game is getting a sequel. If we got KNACK 2 and Wonderful 102 in the same year, I'd die and go to heaven.

Maybe there won't be a presentation at all!
They never said 3ds game will appear during Spotlight.
Even if it does come out there's no where in hell they spend 5 minutes on it. Oras trailer was about 2 minutes during 2014 direct.
Its hard to say(or predict) since we still dont know what it is. I'm praying its SMT V though.
This will end up in disapointment, as has been with Nintendo E3 for years. Hell we even got a peek preview on that Pokemon direct.
Will never understand the way Nintendo handles reveals. Only Zelda was revealed long before launch Look at things like God of War or RDR2, they create expectation and the sense of a good future for the platform.

You know, Nintendo can fuck up this E3 all they want (they likely will). But the fact remains that by the end of the year, they will have released two if not three GotY contenders, only playable on Wii U or Switch. This is a good year for Nintendo fans, regardless of their E3 presentation.
