Is NX off to a bad start? Destined to flop? or just a slow starter?

It's simple: If Nintendo was confident about the console and its line-up they would launch during the holidays. A March launch says they're scared of the competition and limits it to the hardcore Nintendo fanbase (who'd buy it any time of the year) as the mainstream would've spent their money months prior.

Skipping holiday suggests to me they're not going all in, thing won't even be at E3. Sounds like really bad news.

Or maybe the hardware just isn't ready development-wise and Nintendo needs more time to work out any potential kinks?

I'd much rather Nintendo release a functional console than rush it out for the holidays.

"When asked why Nintendo wasn’t launching the NX in time for this year’s big holiday season, Kimishima explained that Nintendo wanted to make sure there were games to go along with the NX." - Kotaku

 

^ sounds like the issue is the Software & games lineup nintendo is working on.

They just arnt ready for a holiday launch.
