If it had launched in 2015 as initially promised, that would have been 4 years after Skyward Sword. That's reasonable, I can accept that.

5 is just too long in my opinion. Never before has a Nintendo console had to wait until it's on its deathbed to recieve it's first mainline Zelda entry. Link to the Past, Ocarina, Wind Waker, and Twilight Princess all arrived in the first 2 years of the SNES/N64/GCN/Wii. Wii U, on the other hand, will pushing or even passed it's 4th birthday if Zelda U comes out this holiday season.

And radio silence doesn't help; when one of your fanbase's most wanted games has been pushed back a year, giving them practically no new material to tide them over is just cruel.

Well, considering the quality and doing open world, I think it's understandable if they need more time. I'm not sure if Ninten themselves have tackled anything like that before since the 1st Zelda, and to do this well, it may be a lot of work for them to make it as good as possible. So at this point in time, I'm willing to wait one more year for them to finish up on it.

And also, they did show that short bit of it at the last direct, which I thought was pretty good.

Other devs have shown though that you can make a HD open world game in less than 5 years.

And that was 13 seconds of footage. 13 seconds in the last 14 months. That's simply not enough in my opinion.
