You're inventing arguments, now. NPCs? More enemies? Why would they need to show these things now? Do you think someone is sitting somewhere going "I was thinking about buying a Wii U, but I'm not going to do it unless I'm convinced that Zelda U has dungeons"? Or "I was thinking about buying a Wii U, but I'm not going to do it until I see some Zelda U NPCs"? Seriously? And we have most certainly seen a forest - it was in the first trailer.
What Nintendo has been doing is what they do for EVERY game that they announce well ahead of time - they drip-feed information. They don't show off every facet of the game well in advance, they show just enough to build a bit of early hype. And generally, they then go quiet in order to build the anticipation for more information.
Zelda U got a trailer, no less legitimate than the X one. The one for X showed a guy running a few times, and then a guy fighting some big beasts (which is really the focus of Xenoblade), and those... I think they're being called dolls, but I could be misremembering. The Zelda U trailer saw Link being chased through a forest area by a huge contraption-like miniboss creature, wherein he shot bomb arrows and then pulled out a fancy-looking arrow/beamsword thing. I'm not sure what makes you think that didn't count as a "real trailer".
SMTxFE was announced in January 2013, not in April 2014 (perhaps you meant to say April 2015?), with nothing of substance in the trailer (just art of various characters). And we saw NOTHING of it until April 2015 - not a single bit of actual trailer, not a single hint of the game's design, no in-game play, not even teaser art. Kind of ruins your argument. And to make matters more complicated, it's not SMTxFE at all anymore. It's GIR #FE. And in spite of what you claimed, it releases this year, in Japan (December 26th). So in other words, they showed NOTHING of the game until about 8 months before release.
Fire Emblem Fates was revealed in January this year, without a title. It was released 6 months ago in Japan. In other words, it got 4 months between reveal and release.
Nobody thinks Zelda U is cancelled - Nintendo literally said, less than a month ago, that it's still coming to Wii U. Whether it's going to be ported to NX as well, either for simultaneous release or delayed release, would be asked whether they showed the game off or not. So I really can't follow your logic.
It seems like you're intentionally ignoring facts in order to justify your claims.
