E3 2021 is over! Was it the best E3 ever? Nope. Was it fun? Yep. But, who won? Did anyone win? Let’s talk about who the “winner” of E3 is! E3 2021 was alright. It wasn’t the best E3 ever.

Read MoreNinten-DO what Xbox Don’t for E3 Presentations
The Nintendo presentation was a selection of leaked announcements, underwhelming reveals and video quality that almost has me believing the Switch Pro is nothing more than a retail conspiracy theory. So why the hell are people talking about this show so much? For every exciting moment in Nintendo’s E3 presentation, there was an opportunity to sit through the Monster Hunter Stories trailer again, or a Game & Watch toy for the 35th anniversary of Zelda. Ya know, instead of the…

Nintendo has been putting out digital, prerecorded shows for a good long while now, and have perfected the art of creating an entertaining show without leaving bored fans behind with endless explanations about single games. Unfortunately, others haven't found that out - both Geoff's Summer Game Fest and Ubisoft's own event were long, drawn out video experiences that left me with a bad taste in my mouth. So what has Nintendo done differently? Let's take a look.

Ubisoft had their E3 event today and…well…look at the title. I mean, I know that kind of sums things up, but let me go into more detail. Ubisoft’s E3 event was today and…well technically its still going on as I write this. They have a post-show event about this Rainbow Six thing. I do not care. I have it on anyway. Let’s back up.
