I say when he made the video. He's not lying, at that moment. But I know Nintendo keeps both ideas open. And they'll judge the fan response + risks if they do move Zelda to NX. If that's a console. They gotta think if it's worth it, to move the next game. Piss a lot of people off. And on top of it. Most people are gonna go the route of wait and see. I'm not buying the NX at launch. And if it is the handle hybrid thing. Than I definatly won't need the handheld version. After all the stuff I hate Nintendo keeps doing with the Wii U. Yeah, Zelda is big and all. But Wii U does show Nintendo's games will glady get ignored. If people hate the system for whatever reason.
For all as we know. The game was delayed because they, again didn't realise, intill now, Link's companion was another pointless info dump person. With annoying prompts.
