DKCTF was very much set and confirmed for a holiday 2013 release. They better not screw this up. Such long waits between games... :/

Nintendo would have to be insane  to delay Smash Bros 4 to 2015. Not only would it hurt Wii U's sales during the holiday season ( Smash Bros 4 would also miss huge sales during the holiday season), but it would also make the  wait for the Smash Bros 4 much longer than necessary.

Yes, well, they've gone 2 holiday seasons without Mario Kart on Wii U too, which passes as insane, imo.

Mario Kart on Gamecube and Wii both missed 2 holiday seasons so its just following the trend of console Mario Kart releasing 1.5-2 years after console launch.

GameCube is Nintendo's lowest selling console ever, and widely considered a failure, and Wii was on fire anyway, with or without MK. Wii U could've very, very much done with MK8 at launch or during its second holiday on th market.
