| Rain2 said: Iwata stressed that with the WiiU too tho and that didn't stop the constant droughts. Besides, I'm not thinking that Iwata wasn't trying to get rid of droughts. I'm more so thinking that Iwata would've thought that they could launch Holiday 2016 whilst not having a post-launch drought. He would be optimistic and think they could have a steady release schedule without sacrificing Holiday sales. Kimishima just comes off as more realistic in that sense I guess. Also, do you really believe the plan was to launch March 2017 the whole time? I don't think Kimishima is following an already made plan that closely. |
I'm 100% sure the plan was for November 2016, but I don't believe that Iwata would have kept the 2016 launch date if it meant a bad launch for the 4th time now. They've literally restructured the entire company to fix this issue. That was Iwata, not Kimishima. He wouldn't wimp out at the final stretch just to meet some arbitrary launch period after all that effort. This is nothing like the Wii U situation.
Iwata definitely was trying to get rid of droughts. Kimishima hasn't done a single thing before this delay that couldn't be predicted over two years ago be following what Iwata has been saying since then about the company's future.
