If the Wii U was going to get a Zelda game, it would have already got one by this year.

NES launch: (1983 in Japan) 1985, Zelda: 1986

SNES launch: 1991, Zelda - ALTTP: 1992

N64 launch: 1996, Zelda - OOT: 1998

GC launch: 2001, Zelda - TWW: 2003

Wii launch: 2006, Zelda - TP: 2006

Nintendo has done this before:

With Twilight Princess being pushed in 2006, some Nintendo fans are wondering if the game might ultimately be killed for GameCube and instead repositioned as a launch title for Revolution, the Big N's next-generation platform. Revolution is set to launch sometime in the second half of 2006, according to sources. According to Kaplan, though, the game is still scheduled to ship for GameCube.

"In effect, because of the backward compatibility built into Revolution, every GameCube game also will be a Revolution title," she said. "But we feel a commitment to the GameCube owners who've been patiently awaiting this new Zelda title, and don't want to force them to wait and buy a brand new system in order to play the game."

That would make it a crossplatform Zelda, not an NX exclusive Zelda, that´s crazy to think, and only comes from the people that wants to see how Nintendo hurts his consumers without any precedent, just for the pleasure of the war.

And NX is not coming nex year, what if Nintende said that they were going to mobile without saying that they have a Nex X console coming in the future? What do you think? Yes, now everybody would be thinking that Nintendo is not on consoles anymore, that´s the only reason for them to say that the X console will exist. Is not necessarily coming next year.


When did they say it's not coming next year?

What is so special about 2017 or 2018? Have the video game gods blessed those years and only those years as some kind of special happening? 

Also explain to me how the consumer is hurt when more people will be able to enjoy and experience this Zelda game if it a dual platform release like Twilight Princess was (a move which no doubt meant the game probably sold double, maybe even triple what it would have otherwise allowing millions of more people to experience the game). 

Which is anti-consumer in actuality? The above, or a bitter, jaded minority of internet fanboys who want to keep the game stuck and hidden on a niche, tiny platform like the Wii U because they feel the "deserve" it like some elitist badge of honor. Why shouldn't the millions of NX owners not be able to enjoy it? Is their $50 worth any less?
