The Legend Of Zelda: Skyward Sword

One piece of artwork and already so much discussion on this.

There has been close observations about the character standing behind Link and it's basically fact that s/he is the Master Sword or closely related to it.

Shigeru Miyamoto announced it in an interview with IGN and said that it's set in a completely different era than Twilight Princess though Link is older.

Miyamoto to IGN wrote:IGN: At your developer roundtable this week, you showed off a single piece of artwork from the next Wii Zelda game. This piece of art has not yet been released publicly, but we noticed that Link appears to have grown to full adulthood. He looks older than he did in Twilight Princess. Is that a correct assumption?

Shigeru Miyamoto: 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.

IGN: Has he lost his Master Sword?

Shigeru Miyamoto: [Laughing] I just wanted to make sure that you understand we are making it. That's all I'm going to say on that subject.

I can honestly not see this being released until 2011 at the earliest, no matter how far into production their in. But I'm already unbelieveably excited.

Discuss, discuss, discuss.

Very excited and happy I adored Ocarina of Time I have very happy memories associated with it! All of the games after have all ben Great but not as good, Twilight was better than Majoras mask, that idea of that girl being something to do with the master sword sounds interesting!

Ocarina of Time is by far the best and I'd say that Wind Waker would come fifth but the 3 in between is just so close to pick.

If I was being very harsh and strict on the games I'd put them like this:

1 - Ocarina Of Time
2 - Majora's Mask
3 - A Link To The Past
4 - Twilight Princess
5 - Wind Waker

I can't wait too, in fact I probably shouldn't be in this topic because two years is such a long time :lol:

my rating from the ones I've played:

1. Ocarina of Time (A beautiful and enchanting classic)
2. Wind Waker
3. Twilight Princess
4. Majoras Mask

but they're all great!

I'm pretty excited about this title!! My fav was windwaker!

by **jason2379** » Wed Jun 10, 2009 9:56 am

Loooooove Wind Waker! The graphics are so crisp. But they ruined that Link with Phantom Hourglass and the new one coming out for the DS are just ridiculous! :roll:

by **BlackNLatin** » Mon Jun 15, 2009 4:18 am

any new trailer or something got out yet??

by **jason2379** » Mon Jun 15, 2009 9:29 am

Pffft, the artwork has only been released. I doubt there will be a trailer any time soon. . .but who knows?

by **CrazyCrazy** » Sat Jul 04, 2009 5:36 pm

Is there an update on this? I'm really looking forward to this I've got all of the Zeldas, the ocarina of time got me hooked forever!

Best Zelda games:

1. Ocarnia Of Time
2. Majoras Mask
3. A Link To The Past
4. Twilight Princess
5. The Adventure Of Link
6. The Wind Waker
7. The Legend Of Zelda
8. Zelda: Minish Cap

But really, this changes everytime.
Sometimes I think Majoras Mask is the best because its so weird and different. Unique really.
Like Anju & Kafei, thats so beautiful!!!

The new Zelda game, I hope they make it more funny then Twilight Princess, which was a VERY serious game - altough Great!
But the joy in Ocarnia Of Time, hard to re-create, but try :oops:

by **jason2379** » Mon Jan 11, 2010 8:57 pm

Nintendo have confirmed that it'll be out in 2010. Source

I won't be surprised it it's delayed tbh!

Buuuut, trailer in June hopefully.

by **Vindrag** » Mon Jan 11, 2010 9:47 pm

Oh, WOW!!!

I did not expect it to be released so soon.
Hopefully it is a sequel to Twilight Princess in some ways.. Or connected somehow.

I love when they release Zelda games around winter time

This will be truly epic! I will so buy it. The Zelda series is one of my all time favorite video games, so I'm very glad that we'll have a second Zelda Game for the Wii. I hope for another masterpiece! 8-)

Rumor: New Zelda Wii Information Leaked

http://news.vgchartz.com/news.php?id=6667

Link, The Hero Of Time! I like the idea.
A few of those sentences scared and made me think "no, why?". But there is no reason to begin to speculate now already.

Wouldnt it be cool if this adventure took place in Termina (from Majoras Mask) instead of a new place. Because if it isnt Hyrule, I dont want a new world.

by **shrimpy_boy11** » Fri Jan 22, 2010 10:45 pm

Yea i have to agree with you on the Hyrule bit.

If the games not in Hyrule or majority of it...its just not Zelda.

I think im most excited for the Motion Plus. I hope its like real sword fighting (or close to it as possible

)

by **CrazyCrazy** » Sat Jan 23, 2010 8:47 pm

I've just gushed all over the screen!

I'll be sad if it's not in Hyrule too! :cry:

at no master sword and

at the time travel idea and also bout the girl communicating with you through the sword!

I think it's time I got a Wii as this will definitely not be released on the Gamecube! :cry:

by **shrimpy_boy11** » Wed Feb 03, 2010 9:37 pm

Arghhhh!!!

:lol:

In this recent interview with Famitsu, Zelda Wii Director, Eiji Aonuma, gives out some details regarding development and adds that M+ was just too natural to not be included.

by **Vindrag** » Sun Jul 25, 2010 2:12 am

The trailer I saw for this game killed the hype I had for this game, but I'm sure I'm still going to love it like I do with every other Zelda game!
