Posted by coromoroOh, man, I had not seen that! Lookin' pretty sweet.
Posted by Panic!Looks pretty good. I still gotta beat Twilight Princess.
Posted by coromoroHmm, I just found this, and I gotta say it makes sense: http://gonintendo.com/viewstory.php?id=84856
Posted by Prince ShondronaiLOL. Can't wait for the part of the game where you take her to the blacksmith and he sticks her in a fire and then whacks her repeatedly with his hammer.
Posted by BLUNTMASTER Xgeneric as **** but who cares i want a new zelda so i'll take it
Posted by ZetaHonestly, I'll take CHOO CHOO Link over this.
Posted by NoirStill waaaaay too early to tell anything, Zeta. It's possibly an interesting concept, of your sword being an actual little person. (I think pretty much everyone kinda figured that one out) According to Miyamoto, Link is also much older and more mature than he ever was in the series--though that seems to mean by looking at this picture that he's in his early to mid 20's. Though again, hard to tell by just this one picture that they've given us. I really hope they keep dropping these little tidbits of info around irregularly like they've been doing this last week.
"Choo choo" Link isn't gonna cut it for me.
Posted by BLUNTMASTER Xthe girl is a physical manifestation of the master sword's power
Posted by Prince ShondronaiI just hope it doesn't turn into Castlevania: Lament of Innocence. "Link, you must strike down your companion from the first half of the game to unleash the full potential of the Master Sword." Garbage. If Leon had been a real hero, he could have saved his woman.
Posted by Max MouseIf thats true.. Looks like he going to be getting the Master Sword pretty early in this game...
Posted by junior seniorhmm, looks like ****

In April 2008, Miyamoto stated that "the Zelda team is forming again to work on new games".[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Legend_of_Zelda_%28series%29#cite_note-48"][49][/URL] Miyamoto clarified in July that the Zelda team has been working on a new Zelda game for the [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii"]Wii[/URL].[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Legend_of_Zelda_%28series%29#cite_note-49"][50][/URL] Issue 37 of the British [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Official_Nintendo_Magazine"]Official Nintendo Magazine[/URL] points out that "the teams [are] still in the planning stages" and that "we wouldn't expect to see or hear anything more until the [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_Entertainment_Expo"]E3[/URL] event next summer at the earliest" and that "even that may be optimistic". The magazine says that "we WILL know something in 2009 [about the title]".[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Legend_of_Zelda_%28series%29#cite_note-50"][51][/URL] However, a title for the new game was not announced at [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E3_2009"]E3 2009[/URL], though limited information was given: the new Zelda game would appear in 2010 at the earliest, and would perhaps use [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii_MotionPlus"]Wii MotionPlus[/URL]. New concept art shows an adult Link standing back to back with a mysterious figure holding only a shield looking back. Another notable point about the picture is that Link isn't holding a sword. Shigeru Miyamoto pointed this out during an interview, but when he was asked if Link was going to lose his [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_Sword"]Master Sword[/URL], he laughed and said he couldn't say anything yet. Miyamoto specifically explained that the team was still experimenting with different gameplay and dungeon designs, and prefered to spend time focusing on the game instead of creating a demo or video to show.[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Legend_of_Zelda_%28series%29#cite_note-51"][52][/URL] The creators maintain that the series has a set timeline, however due to debates over the available information the timeline continues to be disputed. Miyamoto stated in a 2003 interview that there is a master document detailing the timeline.[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Legend_of_Zelda_%28series%29#cite_note-52"][53][/URL] Eiji Aonuma has also stated in a July 2007 video interview that there is such a document on his PC, and that this document is considered confidential.[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Legend_of_Zelda_%28series%29#cite_note-53"][54][/URL] According to this interview, development of a Zelda title can commence without the team knowing in advance where exactly the title will fit into the timeline; but by the time the title is finished, its placement in the timeline will be determined.

Posted by AntHmm, even though it is fake it would be an interesting idea nonetheless.
Posted by Prince ShondronaiNavi: How's Link supposed to beat Ganondorf's goons with a sword? They've all got huge plasma guns.
Blacksmith: Link won't need a gun now that I've tempered the Master Sword.
Navi: Why?
*Link swings the Master Sword a couple of times, practicing. A huge beam of energy shoots from its blade, vaporizing the roof of the blacksmith's shop. Link grins.*
Blacksmith: That's why.
Posted by Tyler DurdenAs lame a gimmick, they should bring back the [URL="http://www.ghosteo.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/getready.png"]Fierce Deity[/URL]. Just drop that [URL="http://www.zeldawiki.org/images/thumb/6/6d/Doublehelixsword.png/100px-Doublehelixsword.png"]*** awful looking sword[/URL].
Posted by Prince ShondronaiYou gonna say that to his face?
Posted by Tyler DurdenYes.. why yes I will!
Posted by Prince ShondronaiTyler: "Hey Fierce Deity, you should get rid of your fugly sword."
FD: "Perhaps I'll leave it buried in the corpse of a VGChat user. I hate those guys."
Posted by DexterThere's a new Zelda game? I thought they were going to stop them for awhile? And that is fairly generic. Zelda is something they can get away with changing so I'd like to see a strange style.
