RE: " leaks"

I love . I really do. I wouldn't have got into video games if not for them.

If you ask me, Nintendo painted themselves in a corner by being very radio silent in 2024 with regards to the next-gen Switch. We were all anticipating a Direct, there were some but dashed hopes as Nintendo announced a Museum & a music streaming app in 2024. came and went and Nintendo did not capitalize on the hype in the tail end of last year, heading into 2025.

As a fan, I'm just frustrated as to why Nintendo squandered 2024. All this reminds me of when Apple did damage control because someone left an iPhone 4 prototype at a bar.

@richygarcia84 To me, I feel like the hype has never been higher... So I don't really see what has been squandered personally.

People are acting like not announcing the system immediately after some leaks is a problem... But I just don't see the issue. People are paying more and more attention, and it's not worth upending plans with timing and partners just to satisfy our curiosity early.
