Nintendo doesn't like to be upstaged. But when the company's two biggest competitors, Microsoft and Sony, announced or seriously hinted at showing their hardware at E3 next year, well, Nintendo stepped up to plate…and yelled at the pitcher.

"In terms of PlayStation 3, 'exhibited at E3' and 'coming to market' are two very different things," said Nintendo of Europe's PR head Shelly Pearce. Now that sounds like a snappy banner to hang over the Nintendo booth.
