While 
Microsoft cast a wide net at its E3 press conference Monday, covering entertainment and gaming options, Nintendo came to talk games — and nothing else.
As part of its ongoing rollout of the new Wii U system, the company showcased a variety of first party titles and gave a peek at some of the third party titles in the works for the system. It did not, however, give a launch date or price for the system, which is expected to be available later this year.
When Nintendo’s global president Satoru Iwata rocked this 
year’s Game Developers Conference with his controversial comments about developers of social and mobile games, there were a lot of questions. Was the company showing fear? Was it being too rigid in its thinking? Was Iwata actually right on the money?
A few people, though, were asking a more practical question: If the company felt this new breed of garage developers (like Rovio in its early days or Tiny Wings developer Andreas Illiger) were undervaluing their games, why not establish an opportunity for them to sell to the Nintendo audience at higher prices?
Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime 
touted the 3DS as more than just a 3D gaming device, adding that it’s “mass market ready, right off the bat,” Gamasutra editor-at-large Chris Morris reported from New York.
The morning started a bit awkwardly for Reggie Fils-Aime, but by the end of his presentation, announcing the launch details of the Nintendo 3DS at a Gamasutra-attended press conference in New York, he was firmly in charge.
Walking out to a dead teleprompter, the normally unflappable president and chief operating officer jokingly accused Wedbush game analyst Michael Pachter of having unplugged the monitors.
