I never said it can't build some hype between now and launch, but sadly it'll never be as well hyped as it could have been, because for maximum impact they would have had to maintain the hype train from reveal to release, and they dropped the ball there. 

Maybe we could have some better hype before launch if there were no silence last year and half, but Zelda U hype in any case will be huge before launch, and IMO difference wouldn't be big especially if actually with NX revile and Zelda U running on NX they could make even bigger hype.

If they play their cards right from here on out they can still achieve a decent level of hype, yeah, just not as much as if they'd maintained the pace they had in 2014, with new material coming every 6 months or so. That was a really good pace they had going back then, enough to build excitement while still keeping people in anticipation. It's all about the balance and pacing.
