Wasn't Animal Crossing announced at E3 in July? And it's releasing in November. Mario Kart was first announced in August of last year.

Either way, even 5-6 months between announcement and release is a really short period of time.

Aside from announcements, have you noticed an unusual lack of advertising for big titles lately?  Other than the constant Fable 2 pop-ups on this site, I've seen zero TV spots, and the game is due out this month.  Same goes for LBP.  It should be a huge game for Sony, yet the release is about a month away and I've seen nothing on TV.  Gears of War, Halo 3, MGS4... all had lots of air-time.

EDIT: on second thought, this should have been a new thread.  Sorry about that.
