 ===== #2: Entertainment =====
 The other major reason that these conventions exist is to entertain attendees and the customers of all those corporations.\\
-People didn't look forward to E3 to hear all the latest announcements (you could read about them in magazines like the next day anyway, or hear from your friends), but because the convention itself was exciting. All those booths, showing off all the latest games and hardware, and all the hot girls promoting all of that (sometimes thru cosplay). It's fun!\\

However, what's important to point out is that this is like complaining about cheerleaders. Cheerleaders don't meaningfully contribute to whatever sport is being played: they're there to hype the crowd up...to make watching the game more fun.)) It's fun!\\
 This is also why taking away that fun factor makes these conventions less appealing to go to. And I'd bet this is the main reason E3 has declined.
