Launching either earlier or later would have been better than the date chosen. If later they could have had more games ready, more eshop content ready and they could have maybe upped the specs a bit when Sony upped the PS4. 2 gig of RAM was just fine when PS4 had 4. When they went to 8 Wii U should have been 3 or 4 to minimize the gap to PS2 vs XBox levels. As it stands Wii U is a little weaker than ideal.
But really the Wii U's biggest problem was design, content and marketing. Launch date is secondary to other major items.
