Why on earth they think it's a good idea to let fans stew for months with nothing to play or get excited for is anyone's guess. If they think radio silence builds hype, they are badly mistaken.

It certainly builds intrigue. I have lost count of how many NX threads have been created at the mere sight of new tiny info just because we don't know anything about it.

If that also makes some people angry, well...can't say I can blame them.

Intrigue is one thing, treating every damn game like it's a matter of life and death if any slight detail leaks is just ridiculous.

Which games that Nintendo makes do other developers even copy? Who copied Skyward Sword? *crickets* Who's making yarn-based 2D cartoon platformers? How many developers are making anything like Animal Crossing? Worried the Call of Duty guys are going to rip off Splatoon?

Not everything needs to be treated like it's a top secret matter of national security. The world is not going to end Nintendo if you show even 10 seconds of Pokemon Sun/Moon, a game that you say is launching in what? 7 months? You can't possibly allow your own fans to even see a few seconds of footage?

Like who is this really helping?
