Legend of Zelda Wii U' Release Date and News: To be Released in 2017 on NX, Wii U

The bad news is, "The Legend of Zelda" has be delayed again. However, the good news is that Nintendo has confirmed that the game will come out in 2017 and will launch on both Wii U and NX consoles simultaneously.

But there have been no more details about the most awaited console, Nintendo NX, apart from the fact that it will launch worldwide in March 2017. This year's E3 will be all about Legend of Zelda, according to Nintendo of America on Twitter.

The company has already delayed the game beyond 2015 and did not even attend E3 last year. Eiji Aonuma, series producer, said that "the team has experienced firsthand the freedom of exploration that hasn't existed in any Zelda game to date, we have discovered several new possibilities for this game". December 2014 was the last time that the company shared a footage of the upcoming game during The Game Awards.

Some even point out that technically, NX news is no delay at all as the company never announced a release date for the console. Even though this game will garner a lot of limelight in E3 this year, fans are waiting to hear more concrete details about "the Legend of Zelda" and what is to be expected in the next few months.

With the confirmed announcement by Nintendo, it is now certain that the game will be launched soon and that too across both the platforms, NX and Wii U. So far, Nintendo has not revealed about the game much, only a few trailers and a screenshot.
