Guys, the last Nintendo home console that did not launch in the fall period in North America (September-December) was the freaking SNES. 

 

I don't see why you guys are thinking that Nintendo would launch a home console nowadays during ANY period other than fall. It's coming out Fall 2012, or Fall 2013. Period. 

Timing, mostly. Wii's struggles in Japan mean that they should replace the console as soon as possible after a holiday season there at least, and this would also be wise in other regions as well. DS sales this holiday shows that a known replacement console does not hinder late-term sales that much.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
