GENERAL Obvious: "Zelda Wii U" was announced during the launch of Wii U. Saying that, they probably didn't expect the Wii U to end up being as horrible as Donald Trump.
Saying that, it probably was a filler name as well. I assure you that the only reason they called it "zelda U" was because at first they probably weren't even thinking about the next generation console, so they thought it would be stupid to put it on both consoles.
Look at Twilight princess for gamecube/wii. if the gamecube didn't fail, I'm sure they wouldn't have put it on the wii as well.
