Here's another way to look at this.
Yes it is unfortunate that the release date is pushed back a little bit for the second or third time. That is not atypical in the first run of any new product. Think about it, would you rather a rushed release or one that is released when it is ready? Additionally, there are many factors that could delay production. A lot of folks need to understand and work in the competitive market place to fully appreciate this.
Also, relative to the TCG vs the TFG. We should all encourage the TFG for either collectors or players. Understand the marketing strategy. Cards are 2-D and need to be read. To play the TCG you need to have some real understanding of how cards go together and all the fun stuff that goes into TCG OP.
Now the TFG is 3-D, highly attractive, easy to envision, and super cool for kids (young and old alike). What better way to start children into Pokémon than this. Think of them like the next phase after plushies and plastic figures. Here are where the seeds to future TCG OP players are sewn.
Finally, I personally take umbrage to all the folks out there who take every chance to dump on PUI. Whether it be the delay in the TFG or release of certain TCs or whatever.
For once, why don't you wish PUI "Good Luck" and "Hope it all works out!". Support PUI in all it's endeavors. Don't be myopic on the TCG only.
