I should clarify that I'm not saying it won't or shouldn't be on NX, I just don't think being on Wii U would be a death sentence. This is a game that Wii U owners have been waiting for since Day Zero. HD Zelda was literally one of the first things they ever showed for Wii U, back at E3 2011, I bet tons of people who bought Wii U did so in part because they looked forward to a HD Zelda.

All that said, I expect a dual platform release Twilight Princess style is most likely.

Dual-platform release is practically a foregone conclusion at this point. They've been adamant it will still release on Wii U. The leak is legit, although there have been legit leaks with some faulty info in the past so that part could still fall through. But I'd consider that a long shot.

It's difficult to consider a hypothetical scenario where Zelda releases as a Wii U exclusive right on top of the NX launch. What kind of marketing attention would it get? We'll never know, and the answer is clearly "Zelda Wii U will get very little marketing attention; Zelda NX will get loads."

I just think Nintendo would be displeased with 3-4 million sales. This is probably the most expensive game they've ever made.
