So can we expect 5 year cycles for Zelda (console) games from now on?

I've been thinking the same thing, but I think the NX will be a Handheld, but it will still get this LoZ.

I think NX will be both (handheld and console fusion platform, runs the same games, just at perhaps different resolutions, few graphical differences)

The platform name isn't even trying to be all that subtle, lol ... NX ... c'mon. Nintendo Cross (as in the portable and console division's crossing). 

All of this has been fairly predictable to be honest, it's just people didn't want to hear it. 

Yet they already said it won't share games. Iwata compared their next consoles to the common IOS system shared between Apple products.
