Eiji Aonuma makes his desire to create a Zelda title worthy of the N64 classic...
Glum Nintendo fans could take a glimmer of hope from a recent interview featured in Nintendo Power with The Legend of Zelda director Eiji Aonuma.
Within the interview Aonuma-san explicitly states his desire to keep on cracking with Zelda titles until he surpasses the masterpiece that is Ocarina of Time.
"I'm happy that a title I worked on some time ago remains highly praised to this day, but that also shows how none of the subsequent games in the series have surpassed it," he says.
"As someone who is still working on the series, I have mixed feelings about that. Because I haven't yet surpassed it, I can't quit. Surprisingly, that simply motivation may be the reason I continue to work on the Zelda series."
Hopefully a sign that Aonuma-san won't be tempted to experiment with the format too much and create a Zelda title infused with Mii's to appeal to the new Nintendo audience.

they need to hurry up and release it. zelda helps make nintendo, alot of people get nintendo systems just for that game, wii has been out how long, and they havent made one for they wii yet. TWLIGHT PRINCESS does not count that was a gamecube game barely edited. this will probably be the only and last real new zelda for the wii since it took this long, now longer. Orcania of time 3d is just another remake so that wont count either. they made some nds which i have. Heck i got every single zelda ever made still, nintendo needs to quit with all these baby games its making and focus on their main games, look what they did to meteroid the new one sucks, it ruined all the prime games made. SO NINTENDO Please pick up the pace.

I want an adult-targeted Zelda game.
"oh if only by some crazy strain of events nintendo somehow made a hardcore zelda for the 360 or ps3
and yes i do like the wii"
Co-sign. I want blood and guts, realistic physics, "gorgeous" graphics like they've promised. The Wii can't provide that.

This sux, Twilight Princess was WAY too easy... I think the game itself is a technical triumph in many ways when you consider that it was a Gamecube title. But in the end, it being too easy is one of the major things that made it inferior to Ocarina of Time.
Most fights lasted all of 2 seconds and posed no challenge whatsoever. There were almost never more than 3 enemies on screen either. All players are not created equal, so why are we forced to play at such an easy difficulty setting? Why not give us the option to decide how difficult we want it to be rather than talking about making the game even easier than it already is...
Seriously, if the next Zelda becomes any easier than it was in Twilight Princess, I am selling my Wii. There has not been any decent games released on the system for a long time now and apparently my favourite game series on the Wii is going to get even more badly castrated than it was with Twilight Princess.
What's my incentive for sticking around if the games suck?

Kaylee, Majora's mask is on several GameCube compilation discs, and as such, will play on a wii console. I'm not sure whether it's on VC or not though.

Kaylee you can play majoras mask or any n64 game on your computer. Just download an emulator like project 64 and then download the majoras mask rom.

H'okay, soo I've looked into some of the rumours for this game and some information that other people have pieced together, and to me it kind of makes sense, but I'm still a little skeptical. But anyways, there is a theory that the figure in this piece of artwork is in fact *gasp* the Master Sword :O !! And that this game is a continuation of OoT in which Link was returned to his child form at the end. In this game he has grown up but not in the same way he did in OoT.. does that kind of make sense? I'm just really excited to find out once and for all what's going on with this game! :D

I can tell by the first look of the game that the blue girl in front is not a zora by what most people think, but actually is the great fairy queen from wind waker that you meet to get the fire and ice arrows, I'm gonna guess she helps you fight in some way, but the concept of using her as a blade is as weird as using midna's hair as a grappling hook.(you know the little black and white girl from twilight princess with the weird hand hair?)
