Doug Lowenstein today attempted to spin E3's fall as "an evolution" but confirmed Next Generation's story that the event's status as a mega-show is over. In a release, the trade body also did not deny our reports that all major operators in the industry had pulled support.
Man this blows!

An E3-like exposition is a necessity in this industry, so I have a feeling something else will pop up to replace it. CES is a good possibility.

Ya thats what I'm thinking. They need something like it to show off their goods. I wonder what was costing them too much. Maybe they just let everyone in who can pay, who knows.

They still have the Tokyo Game Show, they've been saying E3 was dieing for years now. Guess they were right.

I thought E3 would recover, but it looks like I was wrong. Mismanagement - no other word for it.
