Because the next one will be on NX and Wii U, cross gen like twilight princess

Mayby.. would make sense if NX comes 2016.. (or they just do like sony did with tlou.. and release later)

And should that happen.. we will have to see what NX is.. (We know its hardware.. a dediceret game platform.. not the "hybrid" and it will be a "brand new concept") That leaves an "unnormal handheld" or some kind of (not just 4k) VR/AR/Projektor/Other.. home console..

I think the fact Zelda doesn make it for E3 means a lot, they could want to release it with the new console, so they will delay it until new gen launch, like TP

First.. Yes.. it may mean some.. but we do have to just wait and see.. :) 

But why would they wait to release on WiiU if the game is finnish.. And like i said.. it will not take anything away from the WiiU version.. if Nintendo also released it on next gen handheld.. or if NX really is a home console with a brand new concept.. (infact it makes sense that there is some time between them)

Because they did the same with TP, the game was finished but they delayed it to launch it with the Wii ( and later on gamecube) so if the game could be released around December 2016 and the new console early in 2017 , they would delay it to fill the launch line up
