Seeing so many say delay or late 2021 and so on, makes me think of when Super Mario Odyssey and Xenoblade 2 were both announced with their dates and the 90% of people who all said "No way they will keep those date, delay imminent."

Or those that said Animal Crossing would be delayed and it was.

Animal Crossings delay I'm sure is all up to the fact they have Pokemon as a holiday title already and thought to spread it out by releasing in March.

Just like most of BotW's delay was longer due to waiting for Switch release. Not saying BotW didn't get a delay before that, but at some point they decided to just wait till Switch regardless if could release sooner.

ANd as someone just said, engine/physics/ect all done for BotW sequel. SO much easier now. Tons of games get delayed when on a new engine. Working on an existing engine is vastly easier. Plus it has been already like 3 years now. They haven't been sitting on their thumbs like Retro.
