Because they will be overcompensating now.
A lot of the people who will latch onto Zelda are not very happy with Nintendo, so their emotions are resting on the idea of this Zelda being absolutely fantastic. If Nintendo gives a teaser, and it looks good enough, that will be sufficient to initiate an upward spiral of hype and imagination.
Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. In my opinion Nintendo needs this badly, the reason why I don't think it will live up to the hype is because by the time it comes out it will be set way too high. Probably higher than even the most anticipated Zelda games from before.

You weren't around for the storm of 2004, were you?

Yeah I was. I was around for the 1998 storm, too. I think this could be bigger, unless Nintendo sees that strategy as a negative and puts the actual game first. I can feel at the tip their fingers people preparing to switch, and it always follows through.
All they need is exactly what they were expecting, which is not necessarily anything extraordinary at this point. A trailer to a Twilight Princess-esque with better visuals will do, some people would think that alone would be "meh" now, but once it spirals they too will be going bonkers.
