Social media analytics company Fizziology has offered some insight into the Twitter mentions for the E3 2019 Nintendo Direct.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons received a good majority of attention, as did the Zelda: Breath of the Wild sequel. The next closest was Banjo-Kazooie in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but there’s a decent gap there.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ mentions had some negativity due to the game’s delay, but apparently only 2% of the overall social reactions were people upset about that news.

E3 2019 Nintendo Direct was shown to select media early, but without Zelda: Breath of the Wild sequel

Prior to the official airing of the E3 2019 Nintendo Direct, select members of the media were able to view it earlier in the week. But in that particular presentation, the event ended with the announcement of Banjo-Kazooie in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. As we know, the true Nintendo Direct concluded with the reveal of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s sequel.
Obviously the new Zelda is a huge announcement, and it’s something Nintendo wanted to keep under wraps. Given the copious amount of leaks surrounding E3 this year, you can’t really blame them for leaving it out. Nintendo did have an embargo in place, but likely didn’t want to take any chances.

Despite the silence, PlatinumGames studio head Atsushi Inaba told VGC that “development is actually going quite well.” When asked if Bayonetta 3’s absence at E3 2019, Inaba said:
