Around 3-6 months prior to a video game's release (especially a Nintendo one) it should be in it's Beta phase, during that phase the code is already set in stone (development is done) and all that is left is QC and localization efforts. From what we seen in the last direct (the amount of polish), as well as the developers taking to social media and their own unofficial "official website" It's hard to believe they are doing anything more at this stage than fixing bugs, ect.

A game is not developed until the day it is released (Not great ones anyways).

Well they've said it themselves that the game is "close" to being finished.

Yes, but develpoment being finished, and being ready to put on shelves is different. The game's development is finished.
