I think studios just realized everything was so much easier to do digital so why the fuck would they want to do things on the show floor?

Nintendo direct was the beginning of the end

Geoff's show is mega corporate cringe which is indeed much less fun than the raw cringe of E3s past, but that era is totally dead and has been since well before COVID. There's literally no room or reason for something like E3 when companies can stream their own shows and dominate the (now unceasing) news cycle at any time of their choosing.

That and they gave attention to smaller/third party titles that wouldn't normally get the spotlight like that.

E3 has been about the same as what he does for years now. Nintendo and Sony pulling out coupled with every developer under the sun thinking they need their own conference made it crap.

What moment has the Geoff show had that's as good as Keanu's "You're breathtaking!" at E3 2019?

Eh, E3 had cool stuff like Giant Bomb interviewing major figures every night. Nothing's really replaced that.

I don't think this moment was all that special, especially in retrospect since his performance and character was so lame in that game.

I am fully aware you disagree lol.

...yeah I've thought it was dead for a while tbh. Honestly E3 peaked back then, particularly with Sony's hilarious PS3 launch conference. Them having booth babes back then also helped. When was the last time E3 was particularly memorable?

I'll miss having a few days with lots of news, but E3 no longer serves any purpose. Companies can have their own virtual events on their own schedules, and it costs them a fraction of the price of a display booth.

I miss the live Board 8 aim chats during the press conferences, but I don't think we've done one of those in years and years. E3 was about as close to a Super Bowl as the gaming calendar had, but its time has long passed.

Can't help but reminisce a bit - I still remember live-streaming *that* famous Twilight Princess trailer in 2004 (which also marked Reggie's first major appearance for Nintendo). I was watching it in my high school library near the end of my senior year and could feel the rush of excitement pour over me. Considering we were still in the early 2000s, that may have been the first thing I live-streamed (certainly the earliest one that comes to mind).

Not surprising at all, it hasnt been what it was for about 17 years (and that was obviously unsustainable) and you can get the same thing elsewhere.

Also Nintendo were still going until the last one in 2019. They just stopped having an in-person press conference.
