The whole situation has been a complete clusterfuck.

why not just delay the wii u version too?
better than loose the most loyal fans (that are fans enough to buy a failed console for a game), if nintendo lose them, theyre ruined.

Then why waste all that time showing off the game on the Wii U, show the features that the Game Pad could do and show how amiibo support worked on the game? The Wolf Link amiibo alone should at least show that this game is not gonna leave the Wii U since amiibo functionality is there regardless if Switch utilizes that kind of support as well. People already bought TPHD and the Wolf Link amiibo, so why suddenly change plans when you can easily transfer data from one game to another on the same console?

The game is ready. The delay is on the localization. That's all.

I guess I shoulda worded it better :P Regardless, they are utilizing the Game Pad albeit to a small extent. Something similar to WWHD. Able to see the map, switch out items, etc. Other than that, my point still stands. They showed too much on the Wii U to just drop that particular version after years of developing it based on the Wii U architecture. The graphics and frame rate will improve on the Switch version, but its still a Wii U game that is being enhanced.

They cut all the U pad features from the game.

Not a chance. Nintendo isn't Sony.

All of it? I don't know. I've seen footage of the game pad and them using the map on the pad. Then you got the amiibo functionality as I previously mentioned.
