>>38519351The next big news chunk will be at E3 so that nintendo can make an impact with their direct there. They want to be sure of winning E3 seeing as Sony aren't there and despite all their talk all microsoft will do is announce games also available for the PS4 and maybe a streaming service that most people's Wifi won't be good enough for, there will be no competition from Ubisoft this year as the one Ubisoft franchise people actually care about doesn't get a new game this year and Squaresoft will be spamming a game that won't be released until next gen at the rate it has been progressing.
E3, and therefore most of the western world's gaming news stories for the whole year are there for the taking and with pokemon, animal crossing and astral chain all to show off as well as Mario Maker being released Nintendo are going to take no chances.
