I'm not writing it off either, I'd just be very surprised if it releases this year in the West. 2018 just seems more likely to me given that it's only been 2 years since XCX, and previous Xenoblade games have seen significant gaps between their Japanese and Western releases.

That's actually my main concern is whether it will be a simultaneous release.  Nintendo often misses those when it's a game that has a lot of writing and especially voice acting.  Zelda got one, but they had extra time for that.  So we'll see.  I look forward to seeing more hopefully at E3.

Yeah the XB games tend to be very wordy, lots to translate.
