Even saying that they will reveal details about NX this year is more than Sony, MS and Nintendo said about their consoles at this point in their respective release year. Heck, Reggie openly talking about their next home console in July 2015 is way earlier than the three companies spoke about their next consoles. (PS4: 0 days, XB1: 0 days, WiiU: 48 days, NX: 210+ days and counting.)
So I can't tell you why he thinks that Nintendo revealing more about NX than they did about WiiU earlier in the year is proof that it's not releasing in 2016, when all the other consoles released in the same year in spite of them giving us less info about it. It seems like he thinks they have to tell us more as soon as they talk about it at all, even in a newspaper, or else it means that they have nothing more to say later. Which, for anyone who has followed the gaming industry at all over the years knows that's not how it works.

He was directly being asked about it. He didn't just start talking about it. Huge difference.

His response was "we've already said publicly that we're hard at work on outr next home console." Meaning they announced it publicly at a prious point in time than when he was directly asked about it. Feel free to find any public announcement that fits that description better than the NX announcement.
And for the record, it doesn't matter if he was directly asked about it or not when he said that. Just like Sony blatantly denied the existence of PS4 just weeks before their eventt unveiling the PS4 to the world, they don't publicly talk about it until the appointed time and place they decided to do so. You seriously think they randomly talk about it as soon as some news site decides to make an interview and ask them directly about it?

Again though, it was a RESPONSE not something he brought up, and a pretty bad one being he really didn't even use the NX codename in the response.
