Wii U had way more time than NX will have and Wii U flopped. If anything this is a good sign because if they are planning this correctly, then it means that Nintendo is confident in their product to leave so little time for advertising. It so we can hope.

They failed to get the mainstreams appeal and understanding. The fact that some actually thought the Wii U was a peripheral for the normal Wii, just shows their marketing teams failed. Giving them less time to work with isnt the answear. Hopefully nintendo hired new people to do it for the NX.

 

Less time for marketing a more complex concept isnt a good thing.

Nintendo had tons of confidence in the Wii U.

You cant really say its a good sign, or a bad one.

But I stand by that you need to give marketing time to work, its not just magic and 1 ad and you win over people.

I'm not saying that Nintendo sat down at a round table and said "We need to have less time to market it because of what happened to Wii U". What I'm saying is, if they feel that they can market this thing with such little time left, it must be a pretty damn simple console to market. Or else, they're out of their minds by default. If they think they can market a poor console successfully in 6 months, they're insane. If they think they can market a great console in 6 months, more power to them.
