      It's kind of like a gamble whether to wait to make a more powerful system or put one out earlier that's not quite as cutting-edge. In Nintendo's case, waiting definitely helped with the Super Nintendo, but maybe hurt them a bit with the N64. I guess it depends on what the competition is as well.
