THE ONLY RELEASE DATES YOU CAN TRUST ARE FROM DEVELOPERS AND PUBLISHERS! IS NINTENDO A DEVELOPER OR PUBLISHER (IN THIS CASE)? NO! IT'S A LICENCER! BESIDES WE HAVE A UK AND US RELEASE DATE FROM THE DEVELOPERS ALREADY, WHICH IS MORE ACCURATE BECAUSE THEY KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING!.
Sorry for the all caps, bold and red but I feel it is necessary.

In fairness, I would have thought that Nintendo, who do after all have to check all games before release, would have got the date right before they started making adverts. I don't think you can be criticised for believing them.
Unless, of course, you have conflicting information from a more authoritative source, like the publishers or someone...

The ads were on nintendo.com, its not nintendo saying these dates, they are ads. Ads are usually from the company who makes the game. Please don't point me to the forum that the mod says august 31st on both sides of the pond. Games in the US are shipped on mondays and out on tuesdays, thats just the way it is.

I've got a nice bit of cold roast shoulder of lamb for my dinner tonight, leftover from the weekend. I think I'll do some bubble and squeak to go with it and cover it all in HP sauce. I'll stick a rice pudding in the oven for after, with a dollop of strawberry jam on top. Lovely.
The announced release date for WOW2 is the 31st of this month, both sides of the Atlantic.
Later I'll probably have a cup of Yorkshire tea (milk, one sugar) and play a game with my son. I think tonight I'll let him beat me at Mario Strikers on the Wii. I'll make it look convincing, even to myself.

Er... I'm quite sure the game is pretty much finished by now, and I'm pretty sure it's not going to be of higher quality than the one people have already got in other places. In fact, it will be the same.
