Zelda U - Multiplat with Wii U and NX in 2016

Zelda X - Multiplat with NX and NX2 in 2021

Now I wanna bet on that. The home console Zelda after Zelda U will come in 2019, 2020 if something happens and a delay occurs.

Highly unlikely they'll have another Zelda ready in 3 years when the last two have taken them 5 years a piece. Yeah I know, "motion controls/first HD game/yada yada", but what's to say they won't attempt something with the next Zelda that will lead to another bloated, dragged out gestation?

In the time it took to make Skyward Sword, Naughty Dog released 3 Uncharted games. In the time it's taken to make Zelda U, From Software have released Dark Souls 2, Bloodborne, and soon Dark Souls 3. The Zelda team have become a lumbering, unwieldy juggernaught that make one game in the time that other AAA devs can produce 2 or 3.

common sense? reality? SS and Zelda U were exceptions. you need a reason to think development for future games would take long but you don't have any. Who cares if naughty dog released three uncharteds? Those things are so shallow in game design, of course they can be made faster than a Zelda game. I also take it that From Software has enough manpower to work on multiple projects at the same time, right? It's kinda easy to develop more games (that aren't huge open worlds) in that scenario.
