The Wall Street Journal has a report which states that the video game company informed investors that no further details regarding the Nintendo Switch will be revealed until 2017. This comes as somewhat of a surprise as additional details concerning the forthcoming console would potentially lead to increased pre-orders, especially with the Holiday shopping season rapidly approaching. The Switch currently has a release date set for March 2017.
Specifically, TWSJ reports, "no more official announcement would come this year on 1) game titles 2) spec details, including region-lock status."

Nintendo publicly admitted that they failed to do an adequate job marketing the WiiU but it appears the company doesn't think increasing efforts and market presence is necessarily the right approach.
Do you think more exposure would be the better approach to take? Or do you think a little mystery will only serve to heighten anticipation?
