Why do people think the next Zelda will be on NX?

I'm sure the PS3's architecture was more different from the PS4 than the NX' architecture is from the Wii U. And yet, TLOUR was finished in "just" 1 year. It's not like all ports take as long as Tantalus's port will. It depends on team size, and I'm pretty sure if Nintendo releases NX in holiday 2016, the Zelda team will have managed to port Zelda U to the NX. For all we know, Zelda was ready for release this holiday, but was delayed to launch with the NX, just like TP.

Not saying it will happen, but it's not like it's really unlikely, or not doable...

You missed one big thing.

The Zelda team is still working on Zelda Wii U. The game is probl far from finished and it was always very preidctable that they wont finish it till holiday 2015 (check the gameplay footage). TLOU was finished as Naughty Dog started to port it and still needed 1 Year.

If Nintendo really finishes Zelda wii U this holiday but keep it back to bring it simultaneuosly to NX and wii u, that would be very rude.

Wether it's rude or not doesn't mean Nintendo won't do it.... Besides, I don't really find it rude, I find it brilliant. Launching a new console with a flagship title is rather smart...

 

Case in point:
