Nintendo never releases specs, for ANY of their consoles or handhelds. There are two ways that we learn the specs for their systems - developers leaking the information, and hardware gurus taking the system apart and investigating it. They only ever give the information that is relevant to either gamers or investors. That means they'll tell you the maker of the GPU (relevant to the investor), but not the power of it. And they'll tell you all of the methods of control, but they won't tell you the resolution that the gyroscope is capable of.
Why? Because it's not relevant to anybody except the developers. So they're the only ones that learn this information.
This "PR" isn't damage control, it's Nintendo explaining the same reasoning that they've always applied - if you look back at any time in the past that they've been asked for specs of a system, you'll find them using exactly the same argument for why they won't provide them - it's all about the gameplay, and gameplay trumps graphics, but the graphical quality will be more than sufficient. See, look at all the great games coming?
