I don't even care what their excuses are; all I know is that Zeldas come every five years or so, and they've admited that they're having a particularly hard time adjusting to HD development and that things in general are taking longer than usual.  So I have absolutely no reason to believe that this Zelda is going to be any different.  I can hope, but I'm not counting on it.

OoT > MM - 2 years

MM > TWW - 2 years (japan holiday 2002)

TWW > TP - 4 years (delayed one year for the Wii launch)

 

SS had a 5 years development not only for the addition of motion plus, but also the changed completly the art style. Plus, Wii was selling so much that time that they believe it wasn't necessary. This time they need for Holiday 2014.
