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

I'm gonna say helpful. Why? Because a company wouldn't waste these important release times and info revealing points, for no reason. The NX games are in no shape to be shown. Can you imagine revealing the system. And only have one or two games there. 

I'd agree if NX got delayed by a year.  But the release got 3-4 months pushed back, so it sounds more of a manufacturing issue, and/or possibly some things to finalize in sw. Nintendo just chose to bypass E3 and avoid press competition.  If NX games cannot be shown due to lack of progress like you claim, then we are talking a holiday '17 release at the earliest.

Exactly, in a console's general life cycle we'd be a year and a half away (holiday 2017), and they'd STILL be showing off the NX at E3. This whole "it isn't ready" thing doesn't add up at all.
