Keane, did you see this little comparison?


Someone posted it on another thread about this. Curious, eh?
What the fuck?

So I've been swinging around a chick for the past 3 games?

You have to club your enemies with a woman?! I heard Japan was odd... ;)

I noticed that Link is holding a shield in his left hand, in ALL the previous Zelda games Link has been left handed so I'm hoping that this simple "fun-fact" about Link being a leftie isn't changed here in the next title.
On a similar note, does anyone notice that said sheild looks like a new kind of sheild, as in not the hylian sheild?

She's gotta be the sword, I mean, she's kind of "silvery" like a sword, she has the diamond, she practically has the silhouette of the master sword underneath her "clothes." Plus Miyamoto himself said the art work was a clue.

I think more interestingly, what is Link walking into? All swords have to be forged somewhere, perhaps the master sword was forged in death mountain, and Link is somehow walking into it.

Lastly, where's the rest of the title? The Legend of Zelda...and? Is it customary for promo posters to not have actual the title yet? If not, perhaps this is going to be the ORIGINAL Legend of Zelda, like, how it all began. I think somebody already suggested this, and I think its a good idea...

"Link doesn't have a sword..."

I think the answer is obvious. This Link is a rough and dirty cop who "plays by his own rules." He will use a gun and it will be an FPS.
Nah nah, guns are lame. He has a gun that shoots Master Swords.
I'd be on that like stink on shit.

Ok...just because no one's pointed out the glaringly obvious form she's taken...allow me to point it out: This is the great fairy queen http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/zelda/images/0/03/Queen_of_Fairies.png . She, or another fairy of similar ilk (meaning, bigger than a Great Fairy, but not quite a goddess, is the essence of the master sword. We've known this for a very long time, as Fairies hold great sway over the true force the sword can be used (as do the sages, and the goddesses, and the triforce, shut up). Also, we've seen the Great Fairy Sword, and gay jokes aside, it's been the most powerful weapon in the games it's been in (I believe only a Link to the Past and Majora's Mask, an upgraded form of the master sword, or it's own sword). I mean, hell, it could even be Navi...she was last seen in the Chamber of the Master Sword, so why not...though if my sword says 'Hey, Listen', I'm throwing it over a cliff, or I'm going over, cuz I've lost my mind. Then again, it has potential to open up a lot of new sword mechanics as well. I believe this is going to be a continuation of Twilight Princess as well from the look of the art, then again, this is an early piece, so maybe not. The distinct lack of magic in Twilight Princess was very noticable, as was the lack of the faries in general. Maybe they vanished for a time...who knows. Hopefully we'll find out more soon.

So, the nerdy speculation begins...
Yes, this is the power that Nintendo holds over their fanboys; all it takes is one piece of concept art and a cryptic hint by a Nintendo executive to get the hype train rolling.

When i read this and the post that's above where i'm typing, i can only think of two responses.
1, to the article: Yeah, cuz that's what people do, walk around town, just chilling with the sword of evil's bane. NBA players don't walk around in jerseys dude. Marines don't walk around armed to the teeth.
2, to the post: Link should have stayed left handed. Americanizing it is gay, plain and simple. Why should it be changed when they don't have a problem forcing us to use a new controlls anyway? Change the way we game, we should be able to switch of and put the 'chuck in our right hands for once.

It's probably because they don't have the subtitle figured out yet. Nintendo's done this before with Twilight Princess and WindWaker; they even had trailers for both of those games out before they revealed their respective names.

Well they made a poor quality OoT rip off so hopefully this will be a poor quality Majoras Mask rip off. BTW the picture of the sword and the zora thingy being the sword is realy interesting(fanboy-gasm)

I rlly hope that fish lady is the sword cause they added a train and if they gave him a revolver I will hunt down Shigiru Miamotu and make Nagasaki look like a paintball fight.
