no need to get worried guys, despite all the problems nintendo may have supporting two platforms, I'm sure, positive even, that they will hit the ground running and have zero issues saving the mobile gaming industry from the scourge of bad money-grubbing games.

My pulled out of my ass speculation is that Nintendo bit off way more than they could chew by making this a Skyrim clone.  Now that there is a new Nintendo console that will likely get released in late 2016, it gives them an excuse to push the project back another year.

I don't think NX will come out in 2016.

i don't think you need to couch it so much; it seems like a double whammy of overextended scope and HD development.

I'm not sure why not.  The Wii U, especially the tablet, is a concrete albatross around Nintendo's neck.  They'd love nothing more than to move on from the Wii U to something else.  Of course a three year console cycle would be a big problem but four years isn't that bad (see: Xbox to 360).

Sure but the funny thing about this is that the final product is still going to be heavily compromised.  Nintendo tends to make smaller and tighter games; a Skyrim is something that they're really not that familiar with so I'm not surprised that they have to delay it.

Lol, some ntards were convinced it wasn't getting delayed cos aonuma promises it was coming out in 2015.

Really hope they release it on the next console too so I can skip getting a Wii u

Console Zeldas are ALWAYS delayed. I'd rather they actually finish the shit then have it be blatantly missing content like Wind Waker was.

Nintendo is always so behind.

Instead of Skyrim they should be thinking Souls.

I mean a tight smallish overworld with shortcuts and puzzles that leads to dungeons.

lol at you guys expecting something like a Bethesda or a from software lite type game out of this. it's gonna be Zelda. Zelda with some minor changes, but still Zelda.

when is the last time Nintendo made a significant change to how one of their franchises played? the n64?

The things Aonuma has been mentioning about Zelda U are an evolution of the major structural change to the linearity (rather, the lack thereof) of dungeons introduced in Link Between Worlds. The rest of the stuff demo'd, going to "anywhere" you see and Epona dodging trees on her own, are more set dressing than a fundamental shift for Zelda.

Majora's Mask was also a fundamental shift but it was clear from the nature of that game it was always going to be a one-off thing (or evolve into its own subseries, like Yoshi's Island.)

What do you care? You adamantly announced you definitely weren't going to buy any more Zeldas after Skyward Sword. (http://i.imgur.com/z7F4jYO.png)

No I knew that, but you should have also known that I wasn't going to let you get away with your teenage girl-level freakout and not bring it up again as much as possible.

I already played that game. It's called Zelda Skyward Turd.

NX launch title confirmed. Can't wait to see what half assed gimmick it uses that is exclusive to the system. Text messages from Navi, perhaps.

They did that with Skyward Sword, didn't exactly work out.

Really?

You would think thats an area they can excel at.

I wonder if this means this game gets released on both the Wii U and their new hardware, like what happened with Twilight Princess...
