Twilight Princess had shown two substantial trailers with actual gameplay, not an uneventful off-screen gameplay sample and two short cutscene teasers.
The harsh truth of the matter is that Nintendo is not mainstream any more. Hardcore fans like you and me, we're the minority. Mainstream gamers in 2015 have to be regularly bombarded with something to get excited for it.
Again, look at how Naughty Dog/Sony are hyping Uncharted 4. That's how you do it in 2015.

Nope TP had less gameplay, most of it was from cutscenes. Don't seem to understand the mainstream do you, they follow the names of franchises not the media shown, only time they get bombarded is when the game is a new IP again Fallout 4 highlights this as well as showing you straight up that Uncharted's way of doing it is no longer required, look at the recent Tomb Raider despite all the media it was quite a luke warm release it had and it had a similar approach to what Uncharted had.

I dont know what country you are in, but Tomb Raider got barely any media coverage, it was overshadowed by Fallout 4, Star Wars and evnen BLOPS3 to a lesser extent. Which was his point.
Another question, you said that Zelda was covered by social media, thats not really true. Facebook doesnt mean much because if you already follow Ninty stuff and have friends that do, of course you are going to see it. Twitter is a better indicator. FF7 reveal and it was the number 7 trending topic, Fallout 4 was even higher a couple of weeks ago. Same on instagram. Now thats media coverage. Never saw Zelda up there not once.
