3DS was planned for a holiday 2010 release but was delayed to Feb/March of the following year.

Quoting this important piece of info that some likes to ignore.

 

Didn't Nintendo tell everyone that there were no plans on replacing the DS yet, and then announce the 3DS very shortly after as well? I remember the discussions in here, people believed them, especially since the DS was still selling very well. Companies say lots of things; knowing what's what doesn't always hinge upon these statements as they can't always make them outright or blunt.

Yes. They also denied the existence of the 3DSXL days/weeks before the announcement.

Nintendo has said and promised a lot of things that they never deliver. In this case, they don't want to talk about the NX because it will affect (even more) the low sales of the current gen (both 3DS and WiiU). The least thing they need now is less sales.
