if you know absolutly nothing about nx how can you say zelda wii u will likely be a launch title?

You dont know release date, specs, controller input..you dont even know if its gonna be a handheld, home console or both or something different. With informations we have so far its very likely zelda wii u is a wii u exclusive title and will be the system defining game.

I assuming (like almost anybody else) what could be, and whole this situation is very similar when TP get dual release on GC and Wii. It very unlikely that Nintendo will leave their biggest project ever like eksklusive game just for Wii U small base when can achieve much more if they make it in same time launch title for NX too, same like they done with TP for Wii.

How is the situation similar to TP?

 

The wii was hardware whise basically a gamecube. The game dont even really needed to get ported, GPU and CPU were almost the same.

Also the gamecube already got Windwaker as an exclusive Zelda title.

The Situation is similar to skyward sword (which was their biggest project till 2011) were they released the game 1 year before launch of the next system. I may can see an remastered Version (like The Last of Us Remastered) on NX in 2017 if (and only if) nx is an new home console that should replace the wii u (nintendo already said it shouldnt replace wii u).

 

BTW: Games arnt the reason the wii u failed. Mario Kart 8, Splatoon, 3d Wörld, Mario Maker, Smash and so on are really great and almost perfect games. But the System didnt sold. I doubt their strategy with NX will be "just release our big franchises". They need to try something else. I highly doubt their plans for NX are to release Zelda on it and make NX an sucess. That wont work.

The Wii didnt sold because of Twilight Princess, it sold because of Wii Sports. They need something like this for launch, something better then ninendo land.
