I hear you, and this game's definitely had one of the weirdest development cycles I've ever seen (over a year late, never previewed, pulled less than a month before its Japanese release, still no official word, etc. etc.).
And yet the game comes from a great developer, and its early development apparently helped to push Nintendo over the edge and purchase Monolith. I think part of why the game's not been getting that much pimpage is two-fold: they're currently emphasizing bridge games (and this one doesn't seem to be one) and, as damkira said, Nintendo doesn't seem to believe it'll be the Next Big Thing. In the end, I'm in the "cautiously optimistic" mindset, but there's plenty of "caution" there.
