Think this confirms what most of us suspected:

Stand by for an NX Zelda U announcement as well.

Saving grace is that Zelda for Wii U has already been in development for a while... few years or so? Even if NX launches in 2016 or 2017, they still wouldn't have the game (MP) ready for NX at launch.. 

 

Just a hunch anyways. He stated it would take 3 years or so of dev time and they haven't started (according to the article) .

It irks me to know that they never considered a Metroid game for the Wii U.

I posted an article earlier that Next Level briefly did but the time/costs of developing led them to doing the Federation Force for 3DS. In early planning stages they discussed the Wii U platform..

 

Seems Nintendo's own dev studios don't even want to develop for the Wii U. LMAO

That's quite depressing.

You never know, this was just about Metroid Prime. I would love to see something in the style of Other M, but great like Super Metroid. I know this is not going to happen, but a man can dream, yeah?

Maybe that's the reason why Starfox and Zelda U are gonna be on Wii U, they started development before the Wii U started selling so poorly.

 

I think they'll release Zelda on the NX as well though, that game probably costs a lot to develop and they want sales

 

And it seems that developers are smart in the sense that they're waiting for their next console to make games in hopes that it will sell well...

The Wii U has been selling poorly since a few weeks after release. It's selling better now.
