then i'll have to rebuttle starfighter's theory.

the core are like little marketing machines.  the core, by definintion, are really into video games and talking about video games.  right now the core have nothing good to say.  the core is saying things like wiiU is power wise a last (aka current) gen machine.  they are saying wiiU isn't getting any games (read: GTAV, bioshock infinate, dark souls 2, ect.). that talk is was nintendo fans like to refer to as "word of mouth" and right now the conversation is bad.

holding out on all the good stuff just isn't a good idea, especially if they have a lot to show.  they need to give people something to change that conversation for the positive.  if not, six months of bad (word of mouth) press will be very very damaging.  first impressions are hard to reverse.

QFT!! I only see Wii U owners sweet talking the system, but the rest aren't to impressed, and those are the people that Nintendo need to butter up, you know, because they're the potential costumer...

i saw your post as i was writting that and i have to agree with you.  nintendo doesn't need to show everything but a 30 second teaser from a visually stunning retro project would do amazing things to change wiiU's perception.
