Certainly. Nevertheless, a delay for higher quality isn't necessarily a good sign either.
A delay works out well if it allows a developer to make a good game even better - i.e. the foundation is strong, the design is great, and they just need more time to make it an A-calibre title. However, if a developer delays a game because certain aspects are very buggy or lacklustre (and the design isn't turning out to be as fun or interesting as they originally thought), chances are that they're undergoing some struggle to make a disappointing product worthwhile.
