How Nintendo Can Win E3

When Sony, Nintendo and Microsoft enter the E3 arena next week, they need to be at the top of their game. This year, there's no margin for error, and anyone who does slip up will feel the full bruntal force of an angry fanbase. Nintendo appear to have the upper hand with the promised reveals of brand new 3DS titles and ultimately their successor to the Wii, 'Project Cafe', but as seen before things can change in anyone's favour very quickly, so here's what the company need to do to hold their own:
3DS RELEASE DATES- We've been promised new Metal Gear Solid, Kingdom Hearts, Assassin's Creed, Mario Kart, Animal Crossing, Paper Mario and Professor Layton instalments on the incredible handheld console the 3DS this year, but we've had no mention of release dates yet and if Nintendo want to keep things interesting they need to tell us when we're getting some of these big names in three-dimensional view.
PROJECT CAFE DETAILS- We don't want to see a short tech demo of 'Cafe' which has nothing to do with the final console, so let's have a look at the new and improved graphics of Cafe games, get details on how the console will work and how it will change how we play and finally some footage of titles that potentially could feature in the launch line-up (we won't get that list announced, but speculation could begin here!)
WII SURPRISES- Remember the Wii? Me neither, but apparently it sold quite well! Jokes aside, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword appears to be the only remaining game on the radar for the console right now, and that needs to change at E3: last year, we were told about Metroid: Other M, Goldeneye 007 and Sonic Colours for the first time and recieved them before Christmas, so let's have the same happen here!
MARIO- Like Halo for Microsoft, agile Italian plumber Mario is an iconic relation to Nintendo's work, so if we get more footage of his upcoming 3DS game and with any luck a visually stunning new Cafe and/or Wii title then Nintendo will be the company to beat at E3 next week.
My coverage of all three conferences and the show as a whole will hit next Tuesday.
