They have their 5.5 million target for end of March, which they likely will miss by a country mile, so that shouldn't be too much of an issue, lol.
I don't think they're like sitting on a finished Mario Kart U and not releasing it just because they want it for the holidays or something.
They likely had to move Pikmin 3 and Wonderful 101 and Made In Wario out of Q1 because that was overkill for Q1 anyway, but also because they probably realized they had a weaker Q2 than they thought. Maybe they were banking on something like GTAV showing up and got rebuffed by Rockstar.
