Yea, Naum, but how in the hell are Nintendo games supposed to create hype, when they make the announcement so close to the actual launch date? Hyped games will always sell better, there's no denying that.
Also the game will be known beforehand by a lot more people, so customers will not walk into a store and ask themselves WTF is this game all about?
Nintendo is the only company in the world doing that...

What you're saying is true, but not for Nintendo.
If "enter random developer name here" announces a game 1 month before release no one will know about it. If they announce it 1 year before people will find out about their game, create some hype, but then the hype will be dead long before the game is released.
When Blizzard or Nintendo announces a game, the hype after 1 day or after 1 year is the same, HUGE.
