You can disagree, but Sony, MS and Nintendo definatly know better than you when is best day to reveal console.

PS4 reveal was live in US, Switch reveal is live event Japan, you cant relly have live reveal in 8am in Japaan.

That's not true, but even if it was... then maybe don't have the live presentation in Japan?

Regardless there are much better times of the day for a global audience, that's all I have to say.



5 AM in Europe? No way, I'm not waking up that early to see a console presentation.

Nintendo is still very Japan centric company, you can't say that for Sony especially for MS offcourse.

Maybe you could make some better time, but fact is in any case some time zone would be screwed with its time.

Wow that's a pretty bad time honestly.

Sad. :



Jan 12th, Thursday. At around 5 PM in Spain. I suppose they can't please everyone with the dates.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

They could have done
8am PT
11am (NYC)
5PM EU
Midnight for japan.

But Japan is such an important market they want to do it during the day.. So screw the 500 million people in the EU. Including me.

Anyway, I will probably get up for the event.

Dammit, I wrote it wrong. I was going to say AM, 5 PM would actually be a really good time. :P
