   I wouldn’t get too excited… they’ve said that this Zelda will be different, and we all know just how “different” Nintendo has liked being with some of their games lately. Lets hope that Nintendo doesn’t do what they did with Phantom Hourglass and make the game appeal to a broader audience.

   yes indeed, is going to be diferent but believe me! they know what they doing, shigeru miyamoto said that a new zelda game was coming to wii this year or maybe 2009! also said that he will be doing personally this game so this game is going to be great! one more thing, this game it must had been in development for at least 2 or 3 years, twilight princess was released on 2004 but was delayed to north america till the wii launch, changing the game to the wii dosent need to much hand work so i think this game has been deep in development since 2005 or maybe 2006! before the wii concept was created. i trust miyamoto cuz he created the zelda series and he personally made all zelda games, he rocks xD!!

   Comment by Hemse on 9 June 2008:

   no. Twilight princess was not released in 2004

   I live in europe, and it came 13th december 2006. you got the game one week after the Japanese, which was in mid november.

   australians got it later on than europeans

   which means japanese got it first.

   maby some really poor tribe in africa got the game in 2004
   but the game was not finished so it probably sucked at that time. haha!

   no reason to get excited because nintendo has a knack for pushing back their games at least a year!!!

    Comment by FRED on 6 August 2008:

    Juan, you say TP came out in 2004? No. Two years off. Also Miyamoto was the creator of alot of these “casual” games, so I wouldn’t be suprised if he screws up this Zelda and makes “casual.”

    Comment by Miyamoto RULEZ on 13 August 2008:

    Hey FRED,
    Miyamoto can’t screw up Zelda, cuz he kinda sorta CREATED IT!!! I also trust Nintendo with my life and I have not been disappointed with them recently (Wii rules). I think that the games they’ve been making recently are just more fun than the 360 and PS3 (Although I have MAJOR respect for 360). I can’t wait to go to the city in Animal Crossing, Snowboard with Shaun White, Jam with Wii music, and Swordfight with Wii Sports: Resort. KEEP IT UP NINTENDO!!!

    Comment by Timo on 20 August 2008:

    yeah he has screwed up some games… but it seems to me like zelda is his pet project. i just beat TP and i really enjoyed the darker theme. if he keeps going in that direction it’ll be good. WW and PH seemed like a step back, but they were still fairly great games. i say if he keeps the sharper visuals, the darker theme, and brings navi back then it’ll be a fantastic game.

    and if it didn’t act like you’ve never seen a blue rupee before, every time you come back to a saved game.

    Comment by Pieperson277 on 26 August 2008:

    Im hoping the new zelda (There will always be a new one, no matter how long it takes) isnt rushed, and rated around T. The T rating means it will not be gay. Phantom hourglass was cool yet slightly gay I did nt finish it because It was kinda lame… Anyways, The new zeldas probably at least a year in developement, which gives it around a 2010 - 2011 Release date. That will be good if it helps the game to be longer… Also, it is rumored that nintendo is making a new wii (Wii 2) in 2010 Because of the lack to display better graphics… And the new xbox is comming around the same time… Looks like a good year if the rumors are true!

    Comment by Laureka on 27 August 2008:

    To say that Miyamoto would screw up Zelda is a bit harsh. In my opinion, the only games that were screw ups were the CD-i games. :/ What’s wrong with trying to pull more people in to Zelda with WW and PHG? Besides, if everything is always the same, it’s boring. Zelda is a story about a young man saving the damsel in distress from the bad guys. For them to kee releasing this same general storyline, there will always need to be some sort of twist. I’m sure it wouldn’t be fun if they released OoT every few years with prettier graphics each time but the same basic premis. People get too hard on game creators when they just want to bring some variety into a game that always has the same basic plot: Save the princess.

    Comment by Roivas on 15 September 2008:

    Miyamoto won’t mess up the Zelda series. The game won’t be coming out any time soon. It will be a slightly different experience from the last four Zelda games but nothing that will set it beyond or outside the formula.

    Also the game will be good. I don’t even have to see a screenshot of the game to know this. Expect something to start surfacing in 2010 and the final build to come out in 2012, just in time for the end of the world.

    Comment by Hekussu on 25 October 2008:

    What was wrong with phantom hourglass again? >_> I thought it was pretty good for a handheld title. Most of the handheld titles usually need to cater to a slightly broader audience anyway.

    So the “rumor” is true. Miyamoto did confirm that the game is in development, and that the game has actually been in development for at least a year now. In fact, a lot of sources say that the game has actually been in development immediately following the final days of the development for Twilight Princess. Which would mean it’s been at least in the concept stages since 2006. That being said, the game’s probably been in development for upwards of 2 years.

    We can probably expect this game to be released before the end of 2009, even if it is later in the year.

    Comment by John on 7 November 2008:

    I’ve heard from Miyamoto that the next zelda is set in the future rather than the past. Instead of his trusty stead Epona he’ll have his trusty motorcycle. Horses are obselte now. Also his arsinall gets an upgrade with guns and a wide rage of swords that are out of this world. Some say that the world(s) look more like a star wars idea (flying cars, tall buildings…electricity)
    But i’m pretty exited. I think a change is needed to this decades old franchize, especially after ganondorf was killed yet again.

    Comment by Kevyn on 11 November 2008:

    I think in the new game they should
    have more weapons more swords more costumes
    deeper story line a bunch more side missions

    if you consider all of that
    i think you would have a great Zelda game

    Comment by Pedro Felipe on 29 November 2008:

    It’s true that Nintendo has the focus on casual players with the conception of Wii … but it’s also true that their still pay some atention to their core players ( Metroid Prime? )

    The wii zelda is probaly going to be an core game in substance…not that the new Nintendo way of game concept will not be on the game, TP had an enormous “game introduction” for casual player on the Ordon Village.

    Comment by John on 10 December 2008:

    Damn you people are retarded or haven’t played many nintendo games.
    Zelda games have always been incredible and it’s not because the Wii is a casual console that Miyamoto is going to screw up Zelda. He knows how many fans of the series are out there and what they’re expecting. Plus, he said it himself, he was disappointed by TP and that the next Zelda would be as innovative as Ocarine of Time was. Plus, it’s going to make use of the Wii Motion Plus, imagine the sword fights. It’s like saying he’s going to screw up Mario…

    Comment by Al on 16 December 2008:

    Some of the greand new ideas we can expect in the NEW Zelda for the Wii:

    -Instead of making 95% of the non-boss enemies so weak they die in less than three hits, a mere 93% of them will be so weak that they die in less than three hits!

    -Instead of making items found in dungeons practically useless once that dungeon is complete, the items will be useless from the get-go!

    -Instead of having the same, boring old wooden/hylean shield configurations that we are used to, the shields will be redesigned so that one instance of yellow is replaced by red instead! (everything else is the same).

    Comment by Gman on 17 December 2008:

    well if the new zelda takes 3 yrs to make it would come out in 2009 right. 9 minus 6 equals 3. 3 yrs

    Comment by Mr Awesome on 3 January 2009:

    Youre all kind of stupid http://wii.ign.com/articles/920/920705p1.html

    These criticisms haven’t fallen on deaf ears, for Miyamoto himself commented in an IGN interview that Zelda is “… a franchise that does need some big new unique ideas.”

    WOW, people should do some reading before making ignorant comments…

    Comment by teknik on 15 January 2009:

    The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (?????? ???????????, Zeruda no Densetsu Towairaito Purinsesu?) is an action-adventure game developed by Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development and published by Nintendo for the Wii and GameCube video game consoles. It is the thirteenth installment in The Legend of Zelda series. Originally planned for release in November 2005, Twilight Princess was delayed by Nintendo to allow its developers to add more content and refine the game.[2] The Wii version was released alongside the Wii console, on November 19, 2006 in North America and in December 2006 in Japan, Europe, and Australia. This made Twilight Princess the first Zelda game released at the launch of a Nintendo console. The GameCube version was released in December 2006, and was the last Nintendo-published game for the console.[3] During early development, Nintendo referred to Twilight Princess as The Wind Waker 2. The title changed as development progressed, with the name Twilight Princess officially announced at E3 2005.[4]

    Comment by b-lee on 23 January 2009:

    the zelda game has been in production since a little bit into 2006. before the release of TP. mayamoto even said it himself in an interveiw with e-3. it takes 3 years to make a game. add atleast 1 more year on for editing and finishing. if the game has been in production since mid 2006 then i would expect the game to be ANOUNCED this year. mayamoto said that it is not possible to anounce a game until it is 3.9/4 done. so it probably wont be released until either november of 2009 or march 2010. if not then than 2011-2012.

    Comment by MedliLover on 17 March 2009:

    Well i dont really care how long it takes for the new Zelda game, I just cant waqait till it comes out!and Al is right they should try to make the enemies to be a little harder and the items more useful. There is a Game Developers Conference that Miyamato will be attending on March 25. Hopefully we will hear more on the new Zelda game…..If this game is anythign like ocarina of time I’m gonna have to get my tenet ready cuz i will be outside the Video Game store until the game comes out!!!

    Comment by anonymous on 19 March 2009:

    omg…if Miyamoto makes another fuckin zelda game its gunna be the same shit all over again. Its gonna be super easy, the same boring plot, no blood, and no voice acting. Who knows, maybe they’ll mix it up and put in a new peripheral. Eiji Aonuma needs to head development on this one and make it for US and not for EVERYONE.

    Comment by k t on 21 March 2009:

    Although I havn’t seen anything that could hint at it, but i believe that the game will becomming out in 2009. Maybe late november early december. That way they rack up money from christmas sales. It would make sence too. A new Zelda game comes out every three years. By new i mean like a new consol or somethng. TP came out in 2006 and was originally ment for game cube. They then put it on wii so that they could use the wiimote to make the game feel more natural.(In case you dont have both versions, the wii virsion is a total flip from gc) I have herd though that this game will be totally different from the others. I hope they dont change characters though because then you change too much and it wont be fun. But i wouldnt be suprised to see a ew game for wii in late 09

    Comment by joe on 27 March 2009:

    It seems that there has been a lot of talk about the stagnancy of the series lately. I personally feel that the series does need some inspiration, however it shouldn’t deviate too far from its roots. I look at Legend of Zelda games as an epic adventure. To me, the term “epic” is synonymous with an arsenal of weapons, a mammoth quest, and an ultimate heroic ending. However, if the franchise turns too modern or too dark, it will lose a lot of its luster.

    So what works? I like the Hyrules of LttP, OoT, and TP. They all have the same relative zones and landmarks. The sword, boomerang, bow, hookshot, etc classics are necessary. If the game turned modern and used guns/ motorcycles or whatever, I would be supremely disappointed. Similarly, I would be displeased if the next game was a first person shooter. While I like the somewhat standard progression of preliminary dungeons–intermediate boss–main dungeons–main boss (Ganon), someone made a good point earlier saying that the first Zelda was virtually an open world… you could have 3 hearts and the wooden sword and stumble across the 8th temple. This intrigued me.

    So what we need is a twist in the story line. I think TP was on the right track, but was too riddled with “alien-like” creatures… and that annoying wolf aspect. Regardless, it was darker and had potential to be an eye-opening addition to the franchise. What if the new title was a tale of revenge? What if it was set in an evil world (similar to the second half of LttP), and Link was hated by most people. I think the game could then toss in some of the stealth of Assassins Creed along with the epic grandeur of the original Zelda’s. I haven’t really spent anytime on this concept… I just thought of it on the spot. But the point I am trying to drive is that the story line needs some spice… but not an off-the-wall concept. It needs to depart from the familiarty of the previous games while also keeping true to its fundamental roots.

    Thoughts?

    I saw stuff on Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, and it looks pretty sweet. Can’t wait till that comes out. A sequel to Phantom Hourglass hopefully!

    Comment by Xenomorph on 31 March 2009:

    I would really like it ifthey went with Wind Waker graphics again on the new Zelda.

    OoT was awesome, of course, but I LOVED WW. It was a massive game, with heaps of side missions and a lot of detailed stories.

    TP, I wasn’t really a fan. I brought a Wii purely for TP and was really disappoited. It was just to easy, I finished it in 2 weeks of causal play. WW took like 2 months of some full-on play to finish.

    What ever format they decide to go with, I hope the game is big, good story, lots of side missions and is harder then TP.

    Comment by Nick2345 on 4 April 2009:

    The next Zelda game will not be releasing onto the Nintendo Wii! Yeah, isn’t that a shocker for all of you misinformed people. The game will be coming out for the Nintendo DSi, and will be called The Legend of Zelda:Spirit Tracks. In the game, you control a train(much like the control of the King of Red Lions in WindWaker,not PhantomHourglass),and with it you traverse Hyrule. Sadly, the trailer on IGN showed Link in a black/blue suit. Hopefully this doesn’t mean the loss of green our emerald-clad hero needs. If you don’t believe me, head over to IGN. Spirit Tracks hits stores December 31st,2009 in North America.

    Comment by John on 20 April 2009:

    Brandon, I don’t know if you noticed, but Phantom Hourglass mostly appealed to Zelda fans and was a great game. Also, It was rated higher than both versions of Twilight Princess because it was more unique instead of following a classic Zelda style story. Don’t get me wrong, I loved Twilight Princess, but if they were to make some big changes Nintendo knows what they are doing. After all they are still beating all other game companies by 2 times the amount of sales for each of their consoles, and even though Gamespot is bias to FPS games they chose Super Mario Galaxy for game of the year in 2007 which was a huge change from the old Super Mario Bros. Series, Super Mario 64, etc. Everyone agreed that it was even better than the originals, so change is good and should not be feared when these people clearly know what they are doing.

    I believe that the next wii Zelda game should be good as long as we leave luck to haven (in Japanese Nintendo) and as long as the mane man Miyamoto who made Zelda OOT a master peace is involved all is ok

    Comment by John on 4 May 2009:

    honestly, i think there will be a new game of legend of zelda.

    Orignal nintendo has 2
    Super Nintendo has 1
    gameboy has many,
    Nintendo 64 has 2
    gamecube has 2 and….

    The Wii will have another Zelda game. i trust the creator of LOZ, but i honestly hope they get their heads out of their asses and make a movie. and this time ADD NAVI THE FAIRY!!!!

    what happened to that fairy does anyone know? they should be making a game on where Navi went to. and why she isnt found. that is what he will should be focusing on dumbass.

    but the chances of a new concole coming out from nintendo are very low right now.

    Comment by bob on 27 November 2009:

    Dont be fools. you think theres down time for zelda games. There team is always working on it. Zelda games are always delayed also. When u hear the next game is coming out assume that is a way early release date.
