The next Legend of Zelda game has been delayed to 2017

Along with the news of the Nintendo NX being released in March of 2017, Nintendo also has news of the the next Legend of Zelda game. Unfortunately, it's not one that I'm sure many want to hear.

The next Zelda game is being delayed until 2017. But, it will be a simultaneous release for both the Wii U and the Nintendo NX system. So it's not all bad news as the game will be one of the titles you can pick up sometime for Nintendo's next generation system.

But, you'll be hearing a lot about the game come E3 2016, so that's good.
