    Oh yeah, the rumours were swirling around for so long before hand. Nintendo Live is in Sept, so they might announce then and go for a May release. A bit longer between but a good time to build hype.

      Yeah, leak season is my favorite part of the cycle, because so many of them are just so outlandish it’s hilarious, plus the community is usually pretty chill about everything, even when the leak you supported/believed was debunked. Here’s hoping, I think it’ll either be September to May or June to November, with that new information. The death of E3 has opened up a lot of possibilities for announcements. It’s almost more exciting than when you knew where it would be revealed.
