Nintendo is silent for a reason

It's always about the games in the end. Nintendo has a huge whealth of beloved IPs, it was a big mistake not to leverage it at E3 2012. They are trying to convince people to shell out $350, you can't do that with only NSMBU and Nintendo Land.

I know ToS, but what I'm trying to say in OP, and what I was telling mugen is that I'm thinking they may have made a smart move in that, instead of launching the console with a punch, they're making a post-launch y2  bang in time for the launch of the twins' successors. Hence the gap, hence the absolute silence.

It's just a theory though, but I was supporting the reasonable quality of such a strat by pointing to the 360's success as of y2, and the same for the PS2.

I sure hope you're right. It's true that Wii came out last (by two days) in the current gen so it had to have a great lineup right away.
