By 2011 there should be a lot of great third party support by then...
Also, they could always release like Pikmin 3 (if that's not in 2010 and Zelda is moved to 2011) or a new Paper Mario or something.
If Zelda IS in 2010 though...

The problem with the idea of Paper Mario is, Intelligent Systems is currently tied up with making tons of other games, including a 6 game DSiWare deal with Square Enix. The first soon to be coming out, called 'Dragon Quest Wars'.
As for the idea of a holy trinity, its not outside of the relm of possibility, and Nintendo tried to do something similar on the GameCube. However, I just think this new Zelda is going to take a lot longer to be made than 2010. Miyamoto has stated the game is going to 'venture away from the Ocarina of Time/Twilight Princess' formula. That alone means they have to come up with a whole new design for the game. Probably something besides Z-Targetting and the same side camera action based gameplay. For some reason, I've been thinking they're going to utilize the WiiMotionPlus to incorperate first person controls and 'freedom of movement' gameplay for the first time. In essence, try to create the next Ocarina of Time for the new generation, but with quazi free movement sword physics and item controls (no more item locks or Z-Targetting). And all of that takes time. I mean, Ocarina of Time took 4 1/2 years to perfect on the N64. So we should expect this game to take at least that long.
Metroid and the two new Mario games however should stay pretty much on target and release next year.
