Let's not lose the original question (we could nitpick about the budgets required for AAA, AA, etc)...
The OP is asking whether Zelda will be the final big Nintendo title to hit Wii U.


Itwata and Reggie have stated many times that they are committed to Wii U owners and if history shows anything they usually make good on these types of promises even when it comes to their own detriment. Many of the other posters even stated that it doesn't cost nearly as much for Nintendo to develop one of their big titles as it does your Ubisofts/EA's of the world. They will be able to keep costs down which ultimately is one of the advantages of developing for your own hardware. Expect to see at least 2 big name games in 2016 and perhaps 2017 as well.


Yup, that's exactly the point of this thread! And I hope we'll see 2 more big games from Nintendo as well. I'm just worried because Wii U is performing below mediocre in sales so Nintendo may just save any of the big games for 2016-2017 for the next console's launch window and fill the remaining years of the Wii U with smaller titles like Yoshi's Woolly World and Splatoon.

Now I wouldn't mind getting more of these smaller title games if they look as fun as Yoshi and Splatoon, but it wouldn't hurt to have more bigger games in the mix. People brought up Pokken Fighter/Tournmanet, which I completely forgot about so there's still hope. In retrospect, I should have asked if that's the last big Nintendo title for the Wii U
