To bring it back on topic: I noticed that in gametrailers' video they talked to someone from Nintendo of America (I'll find out who afterwards) and he only said it takes place "some time" after PH. The official site also never specifically mentions 100 years later, instead saying "for many years". If it was something that specific, wouldn't you think it would still be mentioned now? The 100 years came from an early interview that could easily have been a rounded figure, and Nintendo could have fiddled with a few things since that got said.
The official Japanese site also clearly names him as Niko, so it's him alright. I think it's highly possible (and I nice touch) some of the previous characters are in this game too
I believe that a few site owners have gotten their hands on the game and they said that it does take 100 years after PH because apparently it's stated in the beginning...but of course this can be wrong as I'm not 100% sure of this information as I don't remember where I heard it from.
Also, a magazine got their hands on the game and have said that a few other returning character from WW/PH are coming back along with Niko.
