Like all games ,I'll wait to see what the reviews say, but I'm assuming I'll be picking it up for Christmas. I'm not worried about it at all. Hopefully Retro isn't in a toxic crunch right now trying to finish it, and that's why they don't have time to show more.

They are most certainly not in a toxic crunch lol. Modern-day Nintendo doesn’t crunch studios, especially not games with a 7y dev cycle. Game has likely been done for a while. That said, why am I a little concerned about MP4B? There are two games that come to mind: Endless Ocean Luminous and M&L:BS. Both hotly anticipated releases with sketchy reveal-to-release cycles which confirmed suspicions on quality.
