Zelda U will probably be more balanced in sales between the two platforms compared to TP, because it is extremely unlikely that NX will be as successful as the Wii.

If the NX launches with Zelda, and its sales explode on release like the Wii 's, then from now on nintendo better launch every new console with a mainline zelda game.Same with mario, no more 2D sidescrolling Marios, a 3D one on console launch should be a must for nitnendo.

Games sell consoles, and as much as anyone might denie it, Nintendo = mario & zelda, without those on a system, it just wont sell.

Look at what happend with Wii U.

It launched without a 3D mario, or a Zelda game. Its honestly something Nintendo cant afford to do, it hurts them too much.

Frankly, Zelda U could be the best reviewed game of all time and NX still wouldn't sell like Wii. 

And it's not as simple as Nintendo = Mario and Zelda. Other franchises like Splatoon and Smash Bros are important as well.
