Do you think Nintendo's holding off of officially revealing NX ultimately helpful or hurtful to Nintendo?

I see people saying revealing at their own event is better than showing off at E3 like Sony/Microsoft did, but what Nintendo is doing is nothing like what Sony/Microsoft did.  Sony/Microsoft had seperate events BEFORE E3 and then showcased their systems at E3, but NIntendo is skipping E3 and only having their own event.  Nintendo could have had their own event and had all eyes on them like everyone is saying is the benefit of having their own event BEFORE E3 and had more exposure at E3.  If people want to use the excuse that the NX wasn't ready to be shown before E3 then that's on Nintendo's incompetence to plan ahead.

AMD's new custom win begins production in the second half of the year, no amount of planning from Nintendo can overcome that unless they'd picked hardware readily available at which point the's a chance the hardware would be weaker then what people would like. You're essentially asking them to do unveiling of hardware that's not even complete as well as not in production.

That's mass production, I doubt there's any problem with giving Nintendo like 100 GPUs of any kind for a trade event. Nintendo simply did not want to be at E3 this year so they just opted to give Zelda the stage. That's not a problem, it's just a computer chip, not reverse engineered alien technology.

The chipset and the specs likely have been locked in since last year with units in Nintendo's R&D at minimum.
