But alas, Nintendo rushed it a bit too soon out of the gates...
i don't think they rushed it, they were intending to release it in 2010 before they pushed it back. they could have pushed back a little more if they needed it. the reason they didn't have any games ready at launch was that they were deliberately avoiding competition with 3rd parties in order to build up a good relationship with developers, but as it turns out without 1st party nintendo games a system doesn't sell. they also got a little greedy with the pricing... just because the hardcore game nerds at e3 loved the system and were willing to pay for it didn't mean average people would rush out and buy it at that price too. those two mistakes together pretty much caused everything.
