Oh I am in the "it is probably coming q4 2016" camp.  However, this release doesn't confirm that at all.

To your point though, Q1 would be a great release time based on your statement.  Allows them to drum up excitement during a traditionally weak period.  Especially after a weak gen with the Wii U.

 

 

That's not as smart business wise as currently Q1 is one of the slowest qurters for gaming as it follows Q4 which is when gamers spend their money. Drumming up excitement for that quarter is actually counter productive given how the market works today.

But if the options for them are Q1 2017 or later, then it actually makes sense since the Wii U is on life support.
