i am worried about other games that contain "questionable religious content" not beeing released on the WiiU because of it, which would be a shot in the foot due to the fact that the WiiU is intended to not only please children and teenagers, but also adults.

This is totally standard in the industry. LittleBigPlanet had to be delayed to remove religious content from it. I believe Zelda:OoT also did but I think I also heard this may be a rumour. With Isaac it simply can't be removed.
Assassin's Creed needs a freaking disclaimer when it starts up in case anyone gets offended that people who belong to a religion are portrayed alongside a ficitious cult/order/religion.
Why is The Binding of Isaac all of a sudden a different situation that forbodes Nintendo being unable to appeal to adults? In fact they were fine with all the violence etc in it. Would it have been released on PS3 and 360? Hard to say, if it had I'm sure there would have been at least one complaint and Sony and MS would have freaked out. It's not right that they wouldn't let it go forward however it's totally understandable and I wonder how the other manufacturers would have handled it.

The original run of OoT had the logo of the Gerudo people as the Muslim star and crescent (very similar to how they appear on the Malaysian or Pakistani flags, for instance), sending somewhat the wrong message (Islam = the bad guys), and the original bgm for the Fire Temple had the words "Allahu Akbar" somewhere in them. The second run of OoT had these removed, as has the subsequent remakes (Master Quest, the GC Zelda Collection Disk, VC re-release, and OoT3D)
