So like i said, June is just as likely since its only listed as Spring.

I thought Spring is March, April, May and June is already Summer.

Here in the US, Spring technically starts on March 20 and ends June 20 this year.

I don't get why they couldn't make it a launch game.

How does that confirm late May? It could just as easily be June.

Bingo.

I do think it'll be May tho, but this doesn't indicate anything we didn't know.

I mean, what other month would be smart to release in? Maybe June, since advertising will hit kids out of school? not too sure honestly.

To Nintendo, the one who matters here, Spring is March/April/May, so this does pretty much confirm a May release.

The first game they say march.
The second game they say April (although the second image says 27th.)
If arms could only come out in May - they would say May. They don't say May.
If "May" is the only spring option why wouldn't they say May?

You don't have to say "May XX" you can just say "May" instead of spring.

Also if they are trying to spread out the games (Spring, Summer, Winter) Where does Xenoblade go?

Who knows, they also put Mario Odyssey as Winter 2017 when that leaves December as the only option.

Xenoblade could go in Fall, more specifically September or October as I expect something bigger (Smash/Pokemon/Animal Crossing/etc.) to take the November slot.

MK8D was slated for April 28th (in the west) during the presentation, Nintendo didn't say ARMS would come in May because they probably prefer to give a specific release date which probably isn't possible right now since development is supposedly still going on, by Nintendo's previous releases it's clear that they are aiming for a May release, if they manage to achieve that is another story, still since the Mario Kart team is working on it I don't see what could possibly go wrong...

tbh I expect Mario to come out before December, it'd be dumb to lose the potential Black Friday sales, Xenoblade 2 can come out either in September or December...
