I'm not making excuses, you're getting overly defensive again.
I'm sure we can agree that the majority of people with a Wii U could be described as more hardcore Nintendo fans that have probably already played the original versions.
From what I gather it's understood that a lot of people have moved over from Nintendo to other consoles this generation, especially if this forum is anything to go by.
These people will probably not have had a chance to play the franchises exclusive to other systems before, so the remakes garner much more interest.
And also, Wind Waker is older than Twilight Princess so it's understandable there'll be more people around now that hadn't played it before.
