Nintendo’s Future No More Secure After E3
Jun. 19 2016, Updated 10:57 a.m. ET
Nintendo’s E3 showing wasn’t as bad as it could have been, but that isn’t saying much. E3 2016 should have been Nintendo’s to win. After all, the company that once single-handedly saved the video game industry has a new console coming out in 2017. The mid-generation release of the Nintendo NX should have put the company in a prime position. Just as their competitors’ consoles lost steam to the void between early adopters and late generation discount shoppers, the Nintendo NX would swoop in. If Nintendo could manage a perfect mix of power and fresh, creative titles, it could have been an epic come-from-behind win, one which the company badly needs.
