Nintendo's E3 2012 conference is most likely to be on the 5th or 6th or 7th of June right? If so then doesn't that mean that all third party conferences that happen before nintendo's (eg Ubisoft 4th June) cant actually include any information on their wii u games this appears to be a serious problem in my eyes, is there something im missing or is this really sucky?

good point this sucks but they could come on stage during nintendo's conference giving thier own company more spotlight.
EA did that last year and ubisoft did so at the developers conference later in the day. i actually dont see much of a problem here

As hardcoreUfan said, it'll probably appear on Nintendo's conference. Or by that slim chance it'll appear on their own conferences.

either way Nintendo will be stealing the show this E3 IMO

Agreed. I don't see how any of the other two companies can outshine Nintendo. Unless of course they reveal their new consoles.

Yeah the only way I can see Nintendo getting out shined this E3 is Microsoft releases a console with these specs
50 terabyte hardrive
a graphics card with the power of 83 Amd radeon 7970s
a cpu containing 600 cores each with 1000 microcores in each core.
1 terabyte of ram

than say the price of the components in this machine is worth 12 to 32 million but they are taking a loss to bring the price down to 50$ in stores and its coming out 2 days after e3.

omg if Microsoft were to release a console like that, it would be able to make me a sandwitch while I played a game, and then give a celebratory pie at the end of the game.

Yeah and just imagine the gaming media.

One thing im wondering is will Microsoft be pushing the Kinect this e3 since if they do it will show what they are going to be going for next gen.

3rd parties usually don't have their own conferences, they rarely have enough to talk about.
Most just show up on the show floor with their stuff, and appear at the big 3's conferences.
There have been exceptions, but really nobody cares about third party conferences anyway.

[Meelow100]

It's on the 5th, and It might even be on the 4th for all we know, It's possible Ubisoft and EA told Nintendo to have there conference before there's.

response to all above comments: i hope we do see third parties showing games at the nintendo conference but i dont see how there will be time for it. nintendo have to do 3DS, show the wii u's first party games, they have to show the online, they have to show the final controller form, they have to show the new secret features like haptic feedback (pretty much confirmed), then they have to briefly show a list of third party games. how will they then have time to get to show any third party games in detail?
to quote reggie "we could have done a 5 hour conference, but we didnt think that would be smart" so ofcourse they dont have unlimited time
