These Games seem to lose a little quality with each release, its hard to get stoked on anything nintendo does anymore.
Your First Look at the New Zelda

Yeah, how come other companies haven't done this? Companies like Konam-oh wait...not a zaar said:
Maybe Micros-...hmmm.
Well at least Ion Storm didn't do this back in the-...oh that's right.
Many many different companies hype their games up, it's not a power Nintendo have, it's a power all successful companies have, Hell look at Peter Molyneux. The only difference is whether or not Nintendo 'leaked' this photo themselves or not.
I think I would be perfectly fine with Ganon being a pawn or an underling, that would make for something interesting.Danman1 said:
Ahh yes, the "Girl = Sword" theory... I'm thinking it's somewhat obvious. Miyamoto made it pretty clear that we had to pay attention to the fact that Link had no sword, and the similarities between that girl and the Master Sword are uncanny, to say the least.ZeroMachine said:Keane, did you see this little comparison?
Someone posted it on another thread about this. Curious, eh?
I'm just wondering, now, exactly what kind of story the game will have, where it'll take place, etc. Anybody have any ideas, or even preferences, as to what we might see/want to see as part of the story?
Probably because the girl beside him, is the first incarnation of the Master Sword, this game is supposed to take place with the First Link, way before any of the other games.Keane Ng said:

But this is the very first adventure and u hav to create the master sword by way of completeing many dungeons, collecting rupees and not talking.....

I recall reading a Miyamoto interview not long after TP's release, in which he stated that that game would be the last "traditional Zelda game." I guess this is a clue as to just WTF he meant. I'm intrigued.Keane Ng said:Your First Look at the New Zelda
Here it is: the first piece of art from Nintendo's work-in-progress Zelda game which may-possibly-but-probably-not come out on Wii next year.
The Legend of Zelda (and the expected sight of Shigeru Miyamoto wielding a Master Sword and Hylian Shield) was conspicuously absent from Nintendo's conference at E3 this year, but Miyamoto did dish a bit about the title during an invite-only post-conference gathering. He even revealed the first art of the game, which Nintendo has now released for public viewing.
Take a look at it to the right (and for a bigger view click here [http://i42.tinypic.com/2v99nrk.jpg]). It's Link, obviously, looking a bit like his Twilight Princess self, with a mysterious blue sculpture (?) standing in front of him. A Zora? Maybe. Is she even alive? I don't know. What's up with that crystal in the center or her chest, and, more importantly, what's with those ugly stockings?
Here's some more fuel for your speculative fires, by way of IGN's interview [http://wii.ign.com/articles/991/991714p1.html] with Miyamoto himself: "Well, the story setting for this Zelda is, of course, in a completely different era and Link is older than he was previously. More approaching adulthood. There is one hint. Maybe from the art work you can see that he's not holding a sword."
So Link's definitely older. Why doesn't he have a sword? Probably because he hasn't played the first quarter of the game that you always have to get past to get the Master Sword in every damn Zelda. I mean, really, why don't you just give us the Master Sword to begin with? Now Link doesn't even have one at all? Come on.
