He never said anything about "starting to see it being developed", he basicly said they are in development but they have list of priorities most likly for NX launh lineup. Its obvious they are currently priorities some other stronger games for launch lineup instead Pikmin, Pikmin definatly isnt system seller.

 

Uh exactly, you don't full on develop non priority games, that's kinda what priority means, hence why the quote "but we’re hopefully starting to see that on the list now” implies what I said. Pikmin 4 was never a priority until recently, which means they were mainly working on other games instead of Pikmin 4, and thus there's no way it was near completion a year ago.

Doesnt mean at all, most likly game was in full devolpment in year or two ago and basicly was near completion, but in meantime Nintendo deciaded to move whole game to NX from Wii U and that requre more time and resources, but curently Pikmin isn't priority compared to some other much stronger games that Nintendo is preparing for NX launch lineup. Pikmin isn't system seller so of course they will prioritize and move resources to some much stronger games that they want to have for NX launch, when they finishe those more prioritize games they will return resources to Pikmin 4.

You cant really say that game is almost finished without any reason.
