What is it with systems these days that they are always released in November? After seeing the confirmation of the SNES release it really got me wondering. The Dreamcast, Super NES, PlayStation, Nintendo 64, Genesis (?), and plenty others have always been released in months like September, hell even August. But ever since the PlayStation 2, systems have always been released in November.

From a consumer this bugs me because it always seems like it's more hectic to get the system then it should be, because it's so close to the holidays. I'd much rather prefer that companies release the system in August/September so the hardcore gamers can get in on the action, and then the company shipping a second shipment sometime in late November. While camping out is fun and all, it can get a little over whelming.

What do you guys say?
