I still haven't picked up Three Houses, mostly because I still haven't finished either Fates game and it seems silly to buy another FE game when I've got two waiting for me. Three Hopes hasn't really piqued my interest, though. The first FEW was alright, but I pretty much dropped it as soon as I finished the main story because I didn't enjoy it enough to finish the side/postgame content.

By contrast, I just finished all but 100%ing Age of Calamity (I'm like 15-20 vicious monsters from filling out the last few quests, none of which give very meaningful upgrades), and I'd still be playing it if there were actually content that justified grinding out optimized weapons (and if that grinding didn't consist of playing the same couple missions hundreds of times), so it's not like I don't like Warriors games. FEW just didn't hook me the way HW/AoC did, mostly because there just weren't as many interesting movesets/differences between characters.

Kirby, Arceus and Mario Kart are still all doing well..

... somethings going on

I'd guess they're trying to avoid crowding the holiday window. Currently, Bayonetta 3 is the only probable title coming out then, but we'll probably hear of one or two more at E3 time because Nintendo's been announcing a lot of games with a <6-month turnaround lately.

I believe they pushed it out early because Nintendo is currently dealing with a lawsuit thats gonna come with bad PR

I doubt it. This is honestly the first I've heard of such a suit, and I'm relatively in the loop as far as gaming news goes. However that suit goes, I doubt it'll be big enough news to actually hurt major game sales. Gamers (which are the primary audience for Xenoblade; this is not one that's being marketed to a more casual market or kids' parents) don't really care about companies doing anything questionable unless it directly impacts the quality of the games they play (see: Ubisoft and Activision still selling games despite raping their staff).
