We've seen the reaction this week towards the developers of Project Cars for deferring their game to the NX. This was a game that was going to sell maybe 50k copies on the Wii U and pretty much nobody cared about before this week. If Nintendo makes a similar announcement for Zelda U, possibly their most anticipated title in the last decade, the outcry will be a 1000 times worse. Hundreds of thousands of people will boycott the NX just to get back at Nintendo for doing this. It would be one of the most bone-headed moves that Nintendo has ever made.

I think Nintendo is smart enough to know just how dependent they are right now on the loyalty of their hardcore fans. The Wii days are over and alienating the fans that are paying their bills by making Zelda U an NX game is just crazy.
