Nintendo: "You shouldn’t assume what you saw on the video represents actual Switch game footage"

No, I still dont buy it. Games sell consoles. The NS is not a far out concept, that people cannot get their heads around it. Time and time again we were proven that gameplay footage helps sell games and consoles. Remember the old&od PS3 commercials? But lets say that you are right, what possible reason could they have to not show some expected games 5 months prior release? How in the hell would that take away from the buzz?

This is not a make or break sittuation, but it would have helped IMO.

Neither was the Wii U but clearly the general public had no clue and still doesn't. 

These people couldn't care less what the games are. To them selling a concept is the more important thing.  Oh I can game at home and on the go by simply pulling it in and out.

The real question should be are these people (i.e. the wii crowd) a lost cause and they have moved on to just tablets and smartphones?

Should they stop trying to be too fancy and focus on the core gamer instead? 

Thats also true. I still hope that they manage a bit of both pies. Right now only building on one should result in a total failure or under performance. Allas, we shall wait and see if their plan works out.
