| Darwinianevolution said: The question is: why the delay? Every piece of info we had pointed to a holydays 2016 release, but they moved it to march 2017. Nintendo just abandoned its best period of time to sell a console, and basically left the WiiU abandoned. Was the NX not ready hardware or software-wise? Did the PS4K and PSVR scared Nintendo? Did they want to give WiiU owners the feeling (keyword here being feeling) of full 5 years of support?What was it? |
Could be several things, yield issues with AMD's 14nm chips could be a big problem. Can't ship a system without its GPU. Not having enough software is always a problem for Nintendo and if they were having so much trouble getting PS3/360 level games finished on time ... would it really be a shocker that they'd suffer a delay making a jump to PS4/XB1 level graphics perhaps?
