New Zelda 3DS To Feature Both A Light And Dark World
The Legend of Zelda 3DS is already at the top of my “must have” list. Being a lover of the classics, this game is bound to feed my nostalgia, yet give me something new and fresh. The top down game play looks fantastic, and the few new features that have been hinted at look just as fabulous. But just how true to the original will it be? In an interview with CNET, Eiji Aonuma shared s...
Zelda: Oracle of Seasons and Ages Confirmed For eShop
Zelda fans rejoice! Eiji Aonuma has announced, via his Wii U account, that Zelda: Oracle of Ages and Zelda: Oracle of Seasons will arrive on the eShop this summer. Currently, there is not a scheduled date. However, the Summer release time frame gives plenty of opportunities to play through the original Zelda, and forward, while you wait. This may be the year of Luigi, but I have a feeling Link (...
How would you change the Zelda Franchise?
In Last week’s Nintendo Direct, Eiji Aonuma discussed that one of the driving forces for the new Zelda on Wii U is to rethink the conventions of the Zelda franchise. To me, Zelda is the best gaming franchise pound for pound, but I would certainly like to see Zelda Wii U change in a few areas. How would you change the Zelda Franchise? My thoughts are below.
The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker is reborn in HD
Nintendo was full of surprises today during the Wii U-centric Nintendo Direct. Aside from the announcement of the long-awaited Wii U version of the Virtual Console, updates from Bayonetta 2, a new Yoshi title, and a teaser trailer for Monolith Soft’s newest RPG, Nintendo threw a proverbial curve ball in the form of a Wind Waker HD remake. Satoru Iwata and Zelda series produce Eiji Aonuma bri...
Miyamoto experimenting with 2D Zelda, may be bringing it to 3DS
A Link to the Past was the first game in the Zelda franchise that make me a lifelong fan of everything Hyrule. Sure, I had played the NES Legend of Zelda titles, but there was just something about the depth found the in SNES classic that really hit a homerun in my book. From the muli-leveled dungeons, to the collect-a-thon that was the 24 hidden pieces of heart, A Link to the Past had so much to o...
Next Zelda for 3DS will be original, not a remake. May or may not be in the works.
In an interview with Mygames.pt, Eiji Aonuma and Koji Kondo were on hand to discuss a few questions about the Zelda franchise at the live 25th anniversary Legend of Zelda concert at the Hammersmith Apollo Theater in London. Amongst the questions of Zelda music and Skyward Sword details, is a real nugget of information about a Zelda title for 3DS. Keep in mind that this is an Portuguese to English ...
Nintendo already thinking about an original on Zelda 3DS
The Legend of Zelda is one of Nintendo’s biggest franchises after Mario, and each of the games in the series have been given extra special attention because of it (if you don’t count the CD-i titles, because really, who does?). This means that when a new Zelda title is released, gamers pay extra special attention to it. Nintendo knows this. As such, series producer Eiji Aonuma has gone...
Nintendo: Zelda HD won’t “necessarily” look like this
Speaking to Wired last week about the conceptual Wii U demo of Zelda HD (pictured), here’s what producer Eiji Aonuma had to say: “You probably remember that when we introduced the GameCube, we showed a somewhat realistic Zelda demo,” he said. “And what we actually created was the cel-shaded Wind Waker. So when we show a graphic demo, people think, ”˜Oh, this is what the next Zelda will look...
Zelda: Skyward Sword has an overworld underworld complex
As producer Eiji Aonuma explains it: “Traditionally a dungeon is a place where it’s all about combat and going from room to room, defeating enemies to get to the end. In Zelda: Skyward Sword, we’re trying to move the small connected dungeon rooms into an area that might traditionally be considered a field or overworld. We’re thinking about creating dungeons where you don...
In case you missed it, Zelda: Skyward Sword is being directed by one of my favorites
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5V_nauQ5gk[/youtube] His name: Hidemaro Fujibayashi. Other games he’s directed: The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages/Seasons, The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords and… wait for it… The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap (aka my favorite 2D Zelda ever)! Eiji Aonuma, the go-to console director of late, is great. But I’m anxious to see where Fu...
Wii Zelda pushed back to refine visual style
Nintendo stated during their E3 press conference that they had wanted to finish The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword in time for holiday release, but decided instead to aim for an early 2011 release date to ensure quality. Â What will they be working on with those extra months? According to Shigeru Miyamoto and Eiji Aonuma, it’s the games visual style. Speaking of the game at an E3 roundtable,...
Miyamoto: Nintendo making Zelda title “easier”
Shigeru Miyamoto is talking, again, and today the topic of conversation is Zelda. Specifically, the next Zelda title and its difficulty. You see, there exists in Nintendo a worry right now. A worry that the Zelda series has become too difficult (and too repetitive) for most people to play and enjoy. There are no longer any “surprises” for gamers when they pick up a Zelda title. So, Miy...
