Nintendo has a completely different president in launching Switch successor too ... so I don't really think "well this is how it was done 10 years ago!" even applies now. Every president has been different in how they handle/announce new hardware launches.
Mr. Yamauchi announced the N64/Project: Reality when the Super NES was only barely 2 years old in North America and Europe, lol.
