Nintendo HAS to Have a Proper E3 Press Conference This Year

Nintendo bucked the trend last year by not holding a press conference at E3. Instead, the company decided to save some money by releasing a pre-recorded Nintendo Direct, which was an utter disaster. The stream suffered under the weight of thousands tuning in simultaneously, resulting in a frustrating experience that was only exacerbated by the fact that the reveals were disappointing as well. Shouting across a Los Angeles hotel room in an effort to figure out what Nintendo was announcing only to find out that Retro Studios was making yet another 2D side-scrolling Donkey Kong Country was heart-breaking to say the least, and certainly not how I had hoped to spend the first morning the expo opened its doors.
