Basically, the way I understand it is that in Japan, the Zelda franchise is not as popular as in the US. On the other hand, the Dynasty Warriors franchise is much more popular in Japan than in the US. The problem is that most people in Japan who are fans of the DW games don't have a Wii U since most of them likely wouldn't be Nintendo fans. Therefore, even though they'd like to get HW, they won't get it because they don't have a Wii U. Nintendo has to hope that people in the US who are Zelda fans get this game despite the fact that it's not really a Zelda game.
