I think delays are good as long as they are pushed to holidays/good selling period.
Delays from holiday season to spring "because holiday is over crowded" don't seem to work for most developers unless It's a Rockstar title like Red Dead which would sell great no matter the time.
I would have been more happy to see Alan Wake delayed to a month that had no competition or the holiday season because it would have sold a lot better.
It's just that simple.
