Nintendo rarely if ever pushes back the release of a game after they have given a specific date.  They may say "Q1 07) and end up having it pushed back from there, but it's been given a release date and it will meet that date.   They have Mario Kart already lined up for early next year and if anyone REALLY thinks they are not planning ahead they are kidding themselves.  Nintendo doesn't just stop making great games after the first year of a system.  


I would love to be proved wrong (again, I am a huge Nintendo fan, with a Wii as my sole next gen console), but I still have a feelling that SSBB will be delayed till early next year. Besides, that isn't true that Nintendo rarely pushes back releases: they delayed MP8 from March to May, then delayed MP3 (though it was just a week).

I think SSMM would be more usefull for them next year. Then they would release SSMM, Mario Kart and Wii Fit in the first half of the year, maybe even first quarter. Why forfeit two big sellers when they cannot  even keep up with the demand for the Wii. I believe they are keeping SSMM as an ace up their sleeve. If everything keeps doing well till the end of the year then they could save it for next year, otherwise they could release it this year. And that would explain why they doesn't release relevant info about the game.
