Nintendo is generally a lot more likely to delay games - they've done pretty major delays for BoTW 2, they restarted development on a metroid title, and so on.

Gamefreak and the Pokemon Company, on the other hand, need to have the games release on schedule to put out new animes, new merchandise, and so on. Nintendo doesn't see that profit, as far as I know, but it's really important to TPC, so I assume the release pressure comes from there.

That is something that keeps Nintendo games as largely day one purchases for me. I don't hesitate to preorder their next game because I (generally) know it will be quality. Even as bad as the Wii U fumbled, the games themselves were some of the best Nintendo games. Yeah I can see on the Pokemon side that being complicated. But it does leave a mark on Nintendo's reputation. Especially for anyone not familiar with how it actually is setup and just thinks Pokemon == Nintendo (more or less). I just feel like Nintendo needs to find a way to do something. Somehow, they have a majority stake in the pokemon company and I thought gamefreak.
