Anyone even Wii U owners should be happy to see Zelda U on both the Wii U and the NX, Why would anyone want such a high budget game to get 1-2 years worth of sales on the current hardware that have a small userbase ( yes it will sell good on that userbase as its the hardcore Zelda fans) when the NX could potential keep regular sales going for 5+ years.
Just look at the legs of Twilight Princess on Wii - It's still selling now and its been a Generation and half.

"If" the NX is a combined platform your also bringing in a big fan base from the handheld side that would probably add a few million sales to it just there along with console gamers potentially picking up a Nintendo console since there last N64 or Gamecube purchase and even people picking up a Nintendo console for the first time.
I don't actually think it will be a NX launch title but a first year release which would still give Wii U owners like 6 months earlier to play it and hey even double dip a year after when they get a NX and fancy another Zelda fix.
