Some issues with this theory.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZmxvig1dXE - Shown 2014, expected 2016 or later (2 years from reveal to release)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVDgpaTExnE - Shown 2014, expected ??? (1 - 2 years from reveal to release)

I have an issue with these examples. Project Guard and Giant Robo are projects, and were revealed as experimental developments.

Metroid Prime, if revealed, will not be an experiment, but a proper megaton. I think it's important to compare apples to apples in this debate.

A game like Zelda U, Mario U, Metroid Prime is comparable with TLG, FFXV, Shenmue III, FFVII Remake because these games compete on the same level for attention and expectation. Project Guard and Giant Robo are maybes in almost everybody's mind.

I don't think it's a fair comparison.

Zelda U will most likely be out in 2016, 2 years is relatively short span from reveal to release.

SMTxFE is your best example, but 3 years is little compared to how long the Sony games alluded to have been revealed compared to time to release.

you do understand reggie did not not beleive what he was saying right?  Don t try to defend his words when, if he was being intellectually honest he would not defend them himself-  Iwata even said at the stockholders meeting that they will reveal games further away when it suits their purpose and reveal games on a shorter time frame when it suits their purpose-  which is what any of the console makers will do-  the difference is they will not act like they don t and take a jab at the other guys for doing the same thing
