I just thought of something. What if Zelda U got delayed because Nintendo wanted to make a  sequel for it a year or two after it dual release for Wii U and NX? This game has to be Nintendo's most expensive game since SSB4 but with even longer development time so Nintendo may try to use as much of that game's engine as possible. Kind of like how Majora's Mask borrowed so much from Ocarina of Time. You may think it would be weird to delay Zelda just to have a sequel for it but I think it makes a lot of sense if they used that time to make the stories for both games to be really great. Who knows, Nintendo may even try to make a trilogy out of the Zelda U story like Square Enix did with FFXIII to get as much out of Zelda U's engine as possible.

So even if Nintendo doesn't show Zelda HD at TGA, they for sure will show in 2016, and we are very very close to that year. If Nintendo decides to do 2 directs before E3, let's say January and April, I expect them to show it in the April one, leaving the January direct more for the last updates of games like TPHD, SFZero, Fates, and show more of Illusory Revelations #FE.

Zelda HD until April (only a trailer) and finally the blowout with a lot of gameplay at E3.

...

Now, if we take in count the NX, I expect them to announce in February with a teaser trailer in the announcement conference. Then in a direct in April another trailer, nothing meaningful for both of them, until E3.

A little talk with user Cloudman a couple days ago inspired me to do some Art Academy again. I knew there's a miiverse drawing contest going on about Triforce Heroes, so I spent a decent part of the last three days drawing up my entry!

Since it's Zelda related, I figure why not post it here. Hope you like it. And here's hoping I'll win that €15 store credit this time lol.

It's decent enough, could have gone much further and more detailed, but I figured it's done. As you'll see 'hands' are my nemesis, they look like crap, but anyway, I'm still more of an object/environment artist so yeah, it's decent.

Aww, glad to spark some inspiration around : D I love the expressions on the Links, especially the red one x D It's so funny. The blue Link's is good too x ) Though, where is his body? : X

Thanks.

Lol yeah he kinda walked off-screen XD

Haha, yeah. Well, at least it looks like he is having a good time.

Blue Link has his bomb suit and got his bombs, so he's all set! Red Link's spoiling the party though, the Bow should be Green Link's because he has the Kokiri Suit. Red Link can have the boomerang in the background, but he just doesn't get it.

I love the exasperation on the face of Red Link

Lol thanks, I was going for the annoyed look on Red Link's face, glad that succeeded!

So, Zelda tonight? Yes or not?
