So, Sony can reveal their console like, 10 months before release, show more during E3 and have a successful launch. But Nintendo doing something like that would hurt them?

Let's imagine for a second Nintendo revealed the console using Sony's method.
Do you know how E3 would have worked out? A repetition of the reveal because they only had that to show - and Nintendo's plans for this year pretty much show that.

I wouldn't call it a plan, i would call it lack of a better option.


Jumpin, you are also forgetting that after Wii U they have a lot to prove.
And although Switch has been a success... does anyone know exactly who's buying it? Honest question.
Does anyone have the data?

Switch is a success... for now.
If things were prety much garanteed you'd see companies announcing full support of the console. But you don't.

Also, if i'm not mistaken, GC was also selling very well at first (rush of 1st party games after launch) but Nintendo failed it keeping its momentum.
