Yeah but Nintendo needs to ensure that they have as much as they can available at launch. They can't afford to blow it like they did with Wii U. The fact that there's even one dev that's asking for a dev kit that has yet to receive it would be a bad sign. Not sure I believe this rumor though... |
Sure, but there are limited resources. Not everyone can get dev kits at the same time, and they have to prioritize bigger devs. We don't know which developer this is. It could be a small indie dev, or the developer for Mary Kate and Ashley go to Mars or something.
Plus, one of the issues the Wii U also faced was a big drought post launch. So, having some developers working on launch titles, and others working on titles for three months after launch wouldn't be the wost thing in the world.
As for the rumor, I don't necessarily believe it's from an inside source, but it's so vague and basic, that it's probably right either way.
