So it's been delayed. That means only Xenoblade Chronicles X is Ninty's only big holiday title. It's pretty weak lineup for the holiday season which concerns me since Ninty a lot most of their profit off of the holiday season (I think I remember reading it was around 50%). On the bright side this means I won't have to pass this up for XCX.

Damn it, I was really looking forward to that title. Oh well. Maybe the delay means they'll make it better? lol

I'm sad that it's getting pushed back, but as Gina said, I'm happy I now don't have to choose between XCX and Star Fox Zero.

That's the idea anyway. Miyamoto apparently stated the game is ready for release right now, but he wants it to be as close to perfect as possible.

Hopefully it will be worth the wait!

I'm also concerned because they don't have anything that week like, right before Black Friday to push out, so I'm curious if they're going to do something like shift release dates around or introduce a new title they've secretly been working on—it just seems way too odd to not have even a Star Fox game (which isn't even that popular to begin with) to release during the holiday season. All they've really got is YWW less than a month from now and Xenoblade X after Black Friday/early December.

Yeah, that's the idea (as zac said)

As for my personal thoughts, I'm actually kind of happy it got delayed, LOL. I wasn't really digging the graphics and I was concerned the game wouldn't be all that great, so I really appreciate the extra time to polish it. I also have no shortage of games I want to play, so this really helps lessen the load on my wallet and free time. So for me, this is actually kind of good news, even though I was looking forward to the game quite a bit, haha.
