I think it's too late in the development to make changes now..... I also think launching march 2017 is better than launching against scorpio in holiday 2017, though NEO may come march 2017... who knows.

I don't think Nintendo should aim for 4k, just as I don't think developers should aim for 4k with Scorpio/Neo.

+ I would add that the NX would be able to have a better library of games at this time then if it has only his launch library during the only season.

More games on the platform would definitely attract more people.

Yup, launching in march would definitely mean it'll have a better library of games by holiday 2017 for people looking to pick one up for the holidays. I think a spring release is defnitely the right decision, also if the launch is handled well in spring and the general consensus from people who own it is that it's a great device it gives a lot of positive buzz that Nintendo will need for the holidays!

Successful spring launch can make the holidays bigger then they'd be if it was launched then.

Holiday 2016 would have been the better date, but between spring 2017 and holiday 2017, spring is the right choice imo.
