I really think they're looking to release 1H next fiscal year, and earlier rather than later. If they weren't, the thing wouldn't be playable this E3. They'll also want to get as much time as possible on market to build base before Microsoft and Sony can get their next gen consoles out.
Yeah but the system also needs time for all the system features to be developed/ironed out and for all the games to be made, 1st and 3rd party. 3rd parties might fair better because they can just port stuff but Nintendo will need time.
If the cafe launch is anything like the 3ds launch that could really hurt the system. A soft launch for a console can be like a death nail. And without knowing anything about the system yet, I think launching in april would be a bad idea. Also April is not a traditional buying season. At least waiting till June when people are getting out of school is a better idea. But does anyone think the cafe will get 2 E3s before launch?
