If Smash Wii U isn't out for this Black Friday, and I expect it won't be, Nintendo can kiss any chance of finishing second this gen goodbye.

Of course, they'd have to be absolute morons to do something so obviously suicidal, but hey, at this point I reckon a brain-damaged lemur could run the company better than the schmucks who do.

You are not the only one saying this. I too believe it to be a suicidal move. Sales in ANY month during the year do not equal holiday sales. Hell, if Smash is 70% done, I would still roll the dice and sell it. It'd still be better than 80% of the games out there.

They have that mentally like they are still #1 in the market having us wait for the game and thinking it will sell at any point during the year. Nintendo is acting like it's in a position to just strut around and have a dick measuring contest with the Sony, Microsoft, and the mobile market, where as of right now they have the shortest stick to measure.

Yeah, you'd think the Wii U's struggles would have taught Nintendo some much-needed humility, but instead they act like they can still afford to take their sweet time on a game that they need NOW. 

They don't seem to get it; they are up shit creek, and if they want to get out of this generation alive, its time to swallow their pride, get down on their knees and do what the consumer wants instead of what they want.
