No he's right, it's the only logical reason. They need the time from the game going gold to being released to fix bugs and put finishing touches on Spyro 2/3, thus you need a day one patch to play those games.

They will all launch on September 21st, but the discs are usually printed 4 weeks before, and they need those 4 weeks to get Spyro 2/3 finished up.

Sounds like a stupid and unnecessary decision which will only result in criticism and bad image for the company. If the other two games are so close to completion, then it is no big deal to delay the whole package by one month. It has been done before multiple times. 

Is that such a good Idea though? There are big titles releasing in October. Call of Duty black ops 4 and Red Dead Redemption just to name a few. Spyro would have to compete with those. It's better to release the game in september where it will have better presence.
