The sad part of this is if the NX is a home console, this is very possible and the next Zelda will do what Twilight Princess did.

What's sad about that? More people playing the game and Nintendo making more money is sad?
I think people need to wake up a bit too. The situation with NX is pretty dire for Nintendo. If it isn't successful they are probably done as a hardware maker IMO.
They need to do everything possible to make it a success, I'm sorry if there's a whiny portion of the Wii U userbase that is upset that they don't get exclusive dibs on a game, but as long as they get the game, my POV is simply this -- give it a rest and try to understand BUSINESS realities. Nintendo isn't a charity or a good will organization. Really. Nintendo needs to do what's best for them as a company, if the game still is coming to the Wii U, then seriously, this is just a sad amount of complaining over nothing.

If this happens to be the case, the Wii U will be the first Nintendo console to not get it's own Zelda game, it'll be the first console to have a shared Zelda game only.

There's really nothing wrong with the game being "shared" though IMO.
Nintendo platforms often go cycles without main IP. The N64 didn't get a Metroid. The GameCube didn't get a Donkey Kong Country. The Wii didn't get a F-Zero/Wave Race type EAD racer. I get it Zelda is held in a big esteem by its fan base but the Wii U will still get the game.
The other thing is it really worth it to have the game sell poorly stuck on the Wii U? It's a limited user base obviously, if it's the best Zelda ever for example it would be a damn shame if its stuck on the worst selling Nintendo console. It also probably won't sit well with Nintendo's sales department given that it probably is the most expensive game Nintendo's ever made.
