What's so surprising? they've been localizing the game since the beggining. It's surprising it's not releasing at the same time as the japanese version.

Not really, localizing takes a lot of time especially with big games like this, it's not as simple as just straight off translating text...

Since Japan's release was in April, I was assuming that the Western release would be sometime in late August - September.

 

However, you will have to be very sceptical about the release because Amazon IT also set release dates for Zelda U and Splatoon.

You're not getting it. localizing generally takes long because companies tend to start the process late (in some cases, only after the japanese version is out). I know translation isn't easy but this one probably started with the project, so it wouldn't be surprising to be ready two months after the japanese one.
