Comment on Ask HN: Launch before Christmas or wait till next year?parent

Comments

Actually it depends on the platform.For a standalone product I think this advice is correct.

However if you are building a game or publishing on a specific platform launch dates do matter as they provide your most significant visitor boost from the platform. This is important because your future exposure might be permanently damaged because of a bad initial launch.

An example of this is avoid launching indie games on mass sales events or over christmas.
