Guys, relax :) I just said it was an option for Nintendo. I guess you are all WiiU owners and I can totally understand the situation is quite unpleasant currently. I only was bringing my opinion to this as the userbase currently is extremely low in comparison and objectively. When ZeldaU releases, there isn't even a 10 million userbase guaranteed. Of course it will have a high attach rate but I don't know if this will be enough to make profit off the game.
The idea with a dual release might be good, by the way.

Seeing Mario Kart 8 selling 4 millions on 7 months and Smash Bros 3 millions on 7 weeks... If Wii U sells 16 - 18m I´m seeing those games at 7 - 9m each one, almost a 50% ratio, so I think is not that hard for Zelda to reach 5m (and if is REALLY a masterpiece maybe much more), and 5m should be profitable IMO

Even if Zelda U becomes the most expensive game on the system, Nintendo has always spent the right amount of budget to not depend of high sales. I'm sure Zelda U will be profitable with only 2 million units.
