They've said, time and time again that it's coming to WiiU, in this last trailer they've really been hammering it home.
The rampant consumer uncertainty might actually be one of the reasons they still refer to it as 'the WiiU Zelda' instead of unveiling the official title.
Either way, it's coming to wiiU.
I think they'll most likely go the TLOU remaster route with it once NX releases though.


Remasters don't sell systems. Nintendo needs to sell NX systems. Like it or not, NX launching day and date with the new Zelda is from a sales POV the best move. Hell, honestly I think they should follow the Wii example and delay the Wii U version even further just to force Nintendo fans to have to buy the NX to play it first. 

It worked well for the GameCube-Wii transiton. 

Twilight Princess wouldn't have sold as well or had the same impact on the Wii had it come out 6-8 months later as a port. Sony can afford to not have the greatest launch windows because they have an established track record of basically having 100% third party support with the demographics (Madden, COD, GTA, Final Fantasy, etc. players) to go with it. 

They can afford to do things like launch Last of Us late in the PS3's cycle because honestly their 1st party IP are secondary. Nintendo does not have this luxury. 

Nintendo's own fanbase is also very stubborn on their own and can get caught up in the "unless there's a new Mario or Zelda with this new system I ain't buying sh*t until I get that!", which is problematic.


Sucks that "luxury" didn't go into their handhelds. 



Pocky Lover Boy!
