Xenoblade came out in Japan in June of 2010. Four and a half years should be enough time to make just about any game. If not, I think we should start getting worried about the project.

Two trailers show the same content = same trailer, we haven't seen anything since e3 and if they were closer to launching within a year I would expect to see more.

Also, besides Project X Zone, they been working with Nintendo on other projects as well--two zeldas titles, Mario kart series, animal crossing, ect. 

An open-world HD RPG is going take more than a few years to make especially when you factor in all new assets are going be used (engine/art) ect.

it's an safe bet that the game will be pushed back.

Actually, **** it, I will reply to this.

Second trailer:

So let me ask you this? Are you fucking blind? There was no repeat of content any where with those two videos. NONE. NADA. Seven months ago was the last trailer. Whoppdeefuckingdo. Not every developer has to show you every second of development here. This isn't Sakurai.

Also, besides Project X Zone, they been working with Nintendo on other projects as well--two zeldas titles, Mario kart series, animal crossing, ect. 

And guess what? Their second studio took care of all that.

Ah, so what are your game development credentials? Regale us with your knowledge of game development.

Sorry bud, it's been four years. It ain't being pushed back.

EDIT: Can't figure out the embed code, so I apologize for the youtube links.

I wouldn't go as far as to say it won't get pushed back; this is Nintendo, after all. But I expect it to at least hit Japan before the end of 2014.

Nintendo isn't developing this, so that argument doesn't hold water. That's like saying Uncharted 4 would get pushed back because of Sony. You blame Naughty Dog instead.

A studio which Nintendo owns and a game which I'd assume is being overseen by producers from Nintendo are going to be heavily influenced by Nintendo's tendencies. It's insane to argue virtually any game isn't subject to unforeseen delays, but especially not one published by Nintendo. As I said, I expect the game to be released this year, but I certainly wouldn't be shocked it it's pushed to 2015.
