If the Wii U version is delayed until holiday 2014 then it's highly unlikely the Wii U version was ever going to be ready for a summer release even if those developers were kept on the Wii U version.

the statement is wrong AND no one said holidays.

the game would release in june/july with the original teams working on their versions. with wii u developers taken for at least 3 months, the date of the wii u version goes to september/october, maaaaybe november.

And there's the flaw, in the bolded, right there.

You can't pull a timeframe out of the air, tout it as fact and claim that everything else is wrong. You don't know that all games would have released in June/July with all original teams working on their versions, because you don't know how many resources there are on each team, or how far ahead each version was in relation to the others, or what is still needed to be done.

You don't know, because you haven't bothered to read the links, the other reasons why the Wii U version will take more time. The delay is not just because the Wii U developers' time was borrowed. 

If you could tell me how many guys were working on each version, 9am to 5pm, five days a week, and if you knew exactly how many  Wii U developers were pulled to help out and for exactly how long, you could make a statement like that with some certainty. But you don't know that information.

And let's not forget, the Autumn release window is still only a rumour. It could still be a longer delay, and this, along with the other reasons given for the delay   is what makes joesampson's estimate more plausible at this point.
