Well here's another fact. Nintendo have done a piss poor effort in advertising Gamescom, as none of us - the actual fans who are clued in - have any idea what they're doing there.
I wasn't all that excited for Gamescom, I haven't given it much attention before, but I sat down and watched the Sony Press Conference because I was reminded in the thread, and it was like a mini E3! (if not arguably better!) This is what press conferences do! HYPE!!
