If NX releases in 2016, and is a home console or has a SKU equivalent capable of running the game, then I'd say we can be pretty sure the game will release on both following Twilight Princess' example.
Nintendo would be right to do so, console Zelda games average about 5m sales, the most successful ones up to 8m, the least successful ones just over 3m. I'd say 5m is difficult on WiiU alone and the game is too valuable to be left as one of the lesser selling ones while a fresh console with a new eager install-base is around the corner.
Now if NX releases in 2017, it's a different story. I don't see the game being delayed another year, that would be two years then and 6 after the last console Zelda (twice the amount of time Iwata wanted), but I do think they'll have something during it's release window. Either a port like The Last of Us for Zelda U to NX in early 2018, or a Twilight Princess HD remaster.
