It seems that some Zelda Wii information has leaked from a popoular Japaneese news board. It is a RUMOR only, but it’s still worth to check out. It has been translated thanks to Zelda Informer! Here is a list taken from ZI, by their good writer Nathanial.
- The game will be vary from the dungeon field dungeon method we are accustomed too (nothing new, Eiji Aonuma confirmed that last year).
- You will be able to select right or left handed at the start, and Link will be left or right handed based on your selection
- The gameplay and basic mechanics are complete.
- They are currently polishing up the story and Characters.
- One of the characters they are working on is a innkeeper in Link’s home village who has a son that looks up to Link.
- The girl in the art is not the Master Sword, and it appears the Master Sword will not be in the game.
- The girls name from the painting could possibly be Adelle, Adella, or Aderu.
- She is not with you throughout the game like Ezlo and Midna.
- The face in the painting of her is not her real face. It’s not fully elaborated on much, but it does say that it was a place holder concept art piece.(assuming the entire art itself was just concept work)
- Link’s sword is highly unique in this game, and will have several unlockable abilities. Adelle (or whatever her final name becomes) communicates with you through this sword.
- There will be horseback combat. Epona will avoid obstacles automatically.
- The models for 3 significant characters in the game have been touched up, but no they are not Zelda or Ganondorf. (Google translate gives rough names of Link, Gorons, and Epona, but our translator said it’s not specifically mentioned)
- The idea of this version of Link also being The Hero of Time has been highly considered, and may already be implemented.
- Time travel plays a roll in the game.
- The game takes place in more then just Hyrule, and may possibly not be Hyrule at all.
Remember it is just a RUMOR, though it looks like it’s trustworthy, so what do you think? If you ask me, it is awesome if it’s true. Upgrades for a new sword? Awesome. Many are thinking that this may be a sequel to Majoras mask, and where Link’s search for Navi got him. You can read about that here, in another article by Nathanial. This looks very interesting, so come on what do you guys think?

RUMOR… Yes, some of the stuff seems promising, but some could fall. Some fo the expectations are obvious, like being able to choose left and right (Motion controls = NEED!) But others… it makes you question. I also like the idea about the new blade, that old master sword must be pretty dusty. They only thing I’m upset about is it still hasn’t been given a title!!!!!!

Well, i didn’t have exam today if that’s what you mean.

Anyway, Mike seemed positive that he would do it in the weekend.

Not to give the impression that I’m fluid in Japanese (I’m not), but I’m pretty sure the post on 2Chan said that Epona would be “more responsive”, not that she would automatically avoid obsticles.

Well, either ZI know something we don’t, or it’s just a translation mistake. But if you’re right, I repeat that I took this list from ZI, and since I can’t read Japanese myself, I can’t do anyhting about it.

Well, either way, it’s a tantalizing rumor;)

Yeah, there will be a terracing wait for the new Zelda… I actually believe that it did state “Responsive.” I actually had my doubts about the atomatic obstacle alludation.
Anyhows… Cannot wait! I might have to borrow the time machine from that odd 19th century man who keeps rambling on about some things called Eloi… Garrett, you’ve seen him havn’t you?

As for the new staff, I’ve been pretty lazy lately due to summatives and stuff. Once I’m done my exam tomorrow, I’ll be able to work on the site again and I will announce the staff.
As for the Zelda Wii leaks, they look awesome. I’m getting excited!
