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.

Alright, you've got me there. There have been plenty of times when they've released more frequently. But I still don't think 2014 is likely. Call me a pessimist, but the tiniest snag tends to trip them up. We want to put it on the Wii as well! +1 year. We want to include the Wii Motion Plus! +2 years. We've come into the HD era with our pants down! +174 years. They've just got such a long history of eternally delaying titles that I've completely lost trust in their ability to develop a game in a timely manner. (I mean come on, Pikmin 3 has been in development for five years, and early reviews are saying it's pretty much the exact same thing as the other games with a few extra features.)

pikmin 3 was a wii project that got moved to wii u. it didn't take 5 years to build it from the ground. and about zelda, nintendo themselves said development for the game has been smooth and they almost showed it at E3. plus, iwata said he was pressuring the zelda team to have the games ready at a maximun of 3 years.

I don't know why you're so adamant about this. I'm not changing my opinion. You can give a legitimate reason for every delayed game Nintendo has given us, but you can't convince me that the new Zelda is exempt from falling victim to one of these reasons.
So please stop trying.
