"Contributed to the decline of Saturn"

I'll leave it to someone else to decide on this, but the sentence " Inadvertently he contributed to the Sega Saturn failure in the US, where during E3 1995, Tom Kalinske announced that the system was available in selected stores effective immediately instead of sticking by the planned date of 2nd of September 1995, dubbed 'Saturnday.'" strikes me as extremely misleading, since every source I've seen suggests this was Nakayama's idea and Kalinske only went along with the plan kicking and screaming. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.119.60.144 (talk) 03:14, 24 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
