Mostly because it was a dig at Sony even though Sony has done that pretty much exactely as many times as Nintendo has in recent years.
We don't know how long the FFVII remake will take, but it is just a remake, so it's quite possible we could see it before the end of 2017
Shenmue 3 has a tentative release window of december 2017. Could it get pushed back? Sure. But as of right now it was announced less than 3 years before it's supposed to launch. Which about as much time as there was between Brawl being announced and it launching.
It's really just TLG that fits what he was saying.
Edit: I'll also add that the language he used implies (or at least came across to a lot of people) that it was a systemic difference. That Nintendo as a company has a policy of not announcing games early while their competition does, which is just untrue.
Bet with Adamblaziken:
I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.
