The NX might almost match the Wii U's LTD in a year too .... the 3DS sold about 13 million or so in its first fiscal year, no? I mean if you're Aonuma do you want your hard work, sweat, and tears to be stuck on a platform where the wider audience won't be able to appreciate your game really?
The business suits at Nintendo ... do you really want what probably is the most expensive game in Nintendo's history to be stuck on a platform that has maybe 15 million owners tops?
You can see where other considerations would come into play here.
