And what's interesting about the Nintendo games is that all of them I can remember end up looking just as good graphically, if not better than they did at the reveal/announcement; the gameplay is never broken; the core design is always solid (whether or not it works and is fun is another story; see Yoshi's New Island or Wii Music); and you have a reasonable idea of what to expect.
We see with Watch_Dogs, Aliens: Colonial Marines, etc. that games can be graphically downgraded to the point of resembling something else entirely; gameplay is broken, buggy, or terrible; there's a ridiculous amount of hype around nothing of substance; and they continuously get delayed for no reason. (supposedly, to improve the game, but Watch Dogs clearly just decided to downgrade graphics and has terrible physics bugs)
