It's an Anti-consumer move not to have it, but it won't affect my purchase directly. If the next system has 3D Mario, Super Smash Bros. 6, Luigi's Mansion 4, Xenoblade Chronicles 4, or Mario Kart 9 in the first 6 months, then I'll probably get it at least in the first year. Any of those by themselves is enough to get me seriously interested early on.
Nintendo software, like usual, is the driving force for me.
