Nintendo Set to Disappoint at E3 Again

GameStooge's Jonathon Howard, a longtime Nintendo fan, scoffs at Reggie Fils-Aime's promise of an "awesome" E3 this year.

Excerpt: Remember last year when Reggie Fils-Aime, the President of Nintendo of America, promised an awesome E3? Remember how we naively believed him, and then were treated to Wii Music? If you need to be refreshed, look at the video above and enjoy watching people who makes six-figure salaries gyrating on stage like idiots.

This is why when Reggie says that Nintendo "always go into E3 with a very high bar, wanting to satisfy not only the core fans but also ourselves," and "we're hoping to do a much better job this year." I just don't believe him.

I have a feeling that everything exciting coming out of Nintendo this year has already been revealed: Spirit Tracks, and the Wii Motion Plus. That at this year's E3, we will again see Nintendo trying to get core gamers excited by products more suited for the casual market. You know, the people who have no idea what E3 is.
