bond007106 posted...Pikmin 3 was never officially claimed to be a launch game or to launch this year. It was only ever 'launch window', and the most precise it was ever pinned down was when it was listed for a 'March 2013' release date of Nintendo Japan's site a couple of months ago.
So if March is the only official release date that we've ever had, then that means it's only being delayed 1-3 months.
Dude, I'm sorry to be the barer of bad news, but Nintendo announced with their latest Pikmin footage that it is being pushed back to Q2.
That's the 2nd quarter of next year.
Now what that means in plain english is that it will be somewhere in the three months after March (no long launch window).
January, February, and March are the first quarter (quarter of a year).
April, May, and June are the second quarter (Q2).
So that 1-3 month window have now turned into a 4-6 month window.
Once again, sorry 'bout that.
Here is the link to the video. Skip to about 9:10 in.
