Fallout 4's hype train could've been handled better, and they never had to work against the weight of a year and a half of accumulated negativity and disenchantment like Zelda U will.

Zelda U can never attain a hype wave like UC4 now, it's too late for that, they missed their chance.

Negativity and Disenchantment!? What are you talking about, what negativity and disenchantment!? Only thing people complain is because they wanted more informations and videos, but that will go away moment Nintendo release Zelda U trailer at E3.

You really don't know that, definitely there will be huge hype for Zelda U also right before launch.

The last year and a half have given people nothing to be excited about with Zelda U, but introduced plenty of negativity in the form of its delay, its radio silence and absence from E3, and an overall lack of coverage. Nintendo have sat back and let apathy and negativity accumulate, and some of that will inevitably stick. Once a negative association is established, it's not easily undone. Remember how Wii and Wii U's rep of having "no games" stuck even after they had tons? Bad impressions stick.

But more importantly, they have wasted a year and a half that could have been spent building excitement and positivity towards the game. They'll now only have 5 short months to gather momentum, and that can never achieve the kind of hype that a longer buildup can.
