having said tht i have not seen anythng- or looked re Amazon s date but who knows it may be a place holder or may not-
I have looked for anything directly from Nintendo indicating 2016 and i can t find that either- I think the main part of their message was that it won t be in 2015 and t won t be at e-3- so beyond that they are not willing to give much if any detail

Like I said, I'm just a messenger. I just find that having it as a year in advance(even if it is by a few months) is odd. You'd think they would stay withing Nintendo's newly announced target.

Well from the wording off the press release regarding the delay, I wouldn't be surprised if it is released in 2017. All that they said was that it had moved out of 2015 - surely if it was coming next year they would have said, "out of 2015 into 2016" but they didn't. I actually think a 2017 release date is most likely, although Amazon won't know that at all, this is just a place holder.

With all the delays I don't think they would have a choice, considering if this is true or not. By the end of 2016, Wii U's gonna be stale bread anyway.

Amazon often, unless give direct information otherwise that is usually the same or similar to other sites, will use a time stamp far off in the future to hold the item spot and pre-orders. It likely means very little.

Gotta figure out how to set these up lol.

We don't even know if the NX is a replacement for 3DS or Wii U.
It's most likely for 3DS too.

Nintendo did not annonce a new target date or even year- The only people/games journalist saying 2016 are just making an assumption because Nintendo did not say 2016- So the place holder for Amazon could be a placeholder for the year 2017
