So, a top down view Zelda for Wii U instead of a full 3D adventure?

There is a 0% chance of Zelda U being exclusively top down. Maybe a top down view on the gamepad, but there will be a 3rd person from behind view somewhere. The next portable Zelda will be top down though, not counting remakes of course.

They should do that for Zelda U. It would really showcase the gamepad's capabilities.

Not gonna happen. Stop with wishes and candy. Doing that it will be like doing 2 different games. It will cost a lot of money.Please understand. Not gonna happen.

 

 

All the more reason not to expect Zelda U to have a top down view. They made the comment about top down view being a possibility for future games long, LONG into the development of Zelda U. It's too late to change to a top down view for precisely the reason you said. I do think having dual perspectives on the TV and gamepad would be awesome though. If they can't do it for Zelda U, they should do it for Zelda U 2 if the Wii U has a long enough lifespan (hey, Gamecube got three Zelda games, it could happen!).
