Hm, I had another idea...
That amiibo functionality between TPHD and Zelda Wii U makes me think that they delayed TPHD because of the Zelda Wii U delay. Marketing that functionality would be weird if the games were a year apart.
TPHD could be meant as a warmup for Zelda Wii U, maybe even with a demo. If Nintendo thought that TPHD itself was a huge deal they would have released it for the holiday season.
