Better to be released around a later date than to buy an incomplete game.
It's not like they're going to be sitting around doing nothing with their time for a few months waiting to release it.Yeah but this would be different, since the discussion is when they would release, based on another games launchs, not if the game is complete or not, perhaps the game is way more forward than we expect and they are hiding info, we dont know for sure.
To use a recent example of Nintendo, Super Mario Odyssey for instance was admitted by them outright to be "done" as of early 2017 and could have been a launch title, but they intentionally delayed it to October to give Zelda its time to shine with Breath of the Wild, and to also not cannibalize other titles of theirs. Plus it being a title befitting for a release around that time period that would have no issue being successful.
The time spent in that gap wound up being put towards further fine tuning the game and adding more content to it because it's Nintendo, they have money, and it's Mario.
Believe it or not, but the two richest video game companies in Japan are Nintendo and Bandai Namco. It's not like Bandai Namco doesn't have deep pockets. They just have a different philosophy than Nintendo does sometimes to put it nicely. Unfortunately.
