at this point...I think the next announcement regarding will be a reveal and a date that doesn't meet expectations...a delay. Nintendo hasn't said one word about it, but everyone and their mom has march 2017 as their expected date and they haven't refuted it, and at this point it's too late.

in addition to it not being ready for reveal, the nes classic is going to be a seller for them this holiday season and I don't think they'll want to take attention away from it. I wouldn't expect an announcement this year

I think there was an enthusiasm vacuum after the "who gives a shite" mid gen update unveilings, and that they didn't strike while the iron was hot tells me that they didn't have the capability to do so...sounds like they're starting off on the wrong foot with yet another console.

A week ago they were creating hype and demand. Now you think they are screwing up?

I'd flip the other day, I think they are prepping something big. The move into mobile, the Mini, the NX....

I think they announce a big media push into all markets centered around a platform that is way more flexible than anything else on the market - game-wise.

I still have hope!

Remember, they don't do things normally. This is just like them to announce something less than 6 months away.

However, I wouldn't be shocked at a delay either
