Launching in March isn't going to affect them negatively. Some of you people talk about this as if it would only sell during its first holiday season and not much ever after... -___-


By launching in march, they sell to the hardcore fans and enthusiasts first, as it would sell mostly to them anyways no matter when it would launch during the year. But by its first holiday, the console will have started to build an actual library of games making it more tempting than during its launch with what limited catalogue will be ready at that time, again, as is always the case. It also gives developers more time to get their big games ready for the "upcoming holiday season", and they will release them knowing that the console has already built a minimum of a user base...

Anyway, I don't see any issues with Nintendo releasing their console during march, or whenever else.
