It's a very strange connection to make. There's no way they would delay the game for something so frivolous. It's been delayed because it won't be finished this year.

obviously

Do I have to rephrase that to the game's content won't be finished, and it has nothing to do with rewriting the entire story to revolve around a female playable character?

I wonder if she will have the same moves as Link or her own special attacks? How does HW play, does every character have their own unique test of moves?

Yeah every character has a unique moveset. Most characters have multiple weapon types as well, for instance Link using the sword & shield has a different moveset from Link using the Fire Rod or Gauntlets.

The weapon teased is the crossbow, so no matter who has it (Linkle or an existing character), they'll have a completely new moveset to go along with it.

YES PLSS, this game will be ultimate Waifu game xD

Huh? You seriously think Zelda WiiU was delayed for this reason? Lol... they'd have just announced it for 2016 in the first place if that was the reason. Silliest thing i've heard in a while.

They delayed a full year Twilight Princess to make a Wii version, despite being ready to launch on GameCube.

They delayed Skyward Sword a full year to release on the 25th anniversary. Although game was not ready during holiday 2010, it was ready way before launch, but decide to wait for christmas.

Great! Now we have 2 female Links!

That... doesn't make any sense. It was the 25th anniversary the whole year. They delayed the game because it wasn't finished by the end of 2010. Then, yes, they deliberately pushed it back to be a Holiday title. Neither of those things have anything to do with the 25th anniversary.

Same thing this time, they will push it all the way back to Holiday 2016, and continue to work on it throughout the year.
