Section B: Information from interviews and other reports
Thissection employs a number key for each piece of information. To seewhere each one came from, refer to the list of sources in section E.
Development
01 - Has been in development from late 2005 or early 2006
02 - Done by Nintendo's internal "Wii Zelda team"
08 - Still in the experimental phase
09 - Aiming for a 2010 release
Gameplay mechanics
02 - Likely to include "big new ideas"
02 - Unlikely to be in first-person perspective
03 - Will include archery and swordplay similar to that of Wii Sports Resort
03 - Will try "to make everybody happy"
04 - Will definitely use Wii MotionPlus accessory; may require it
05 - Will try to appeal to a broad audience to the exclusion of "skew[ing] towards an older or more focussed audience"
05 - Trying to keep the difficulty levels reasonable (reasonably low)
Storyline
03 - Link is "more mature than ever"
05 - Set in "a completely different era" to other Zelda games
05 - There's something important in the fact that Link isn't holding a sword in the picture above
05 - Completely different story progression to Twilight Princess
07 - Completely new Link (implied)
Graphics
06 - Likely to feature amped-up graphics from Twilight Princess
Odds-and-ends
07 - Will likely not listen to fan requests about game's content
Section C: Theories and Speculation
It is widely-held now that the smaller figure in the picture is some manefestation of the master sword (source 10).
Manybelieve that Nintendo's new "Kind Code" (source 11) system may be usedto aid in making this game more accessible to new gamers. The appendixto this guide has more information on this.

Appendix: The "Kind Code" system
Fromthe patent document, it appears the system will work like this: Eitherwhile you are playing or from a home menu, you can view a video ofsomeone else playing the game (with all the appropriate power-ups forthat part of the game). This will be used to give hints (or, rather,walkthroughs) of what to do for a particular section of the game.
Ontop of this, the patent implies that a player can then, while the videois playing, take back control and keep playing. Furthermore, it seemsthat the player will be able to skip to different parts of the gamewhile in video playback ("Digest") mode and watch (or play) thoseparts. However, while in "Digest mode", you would not be able to saveyour game, meaning that you would still have to complete the challengesyourself to progress properly.
All this is just what can beinferred from the patent document. We don't know for which games thepatented method would be used (if any), nor which parts of the mechanic may be included or excluded.

If they made another one, they'd either
1) REALLY REALLY have to rush it and it would be a piece of crap
2) Abort making it since N64 game sales plummeted after Gamecube release.

Not yours, yours is ugly

Y'know, who is your favorite version of Link?
I like the Windwaker/cel shaded models of Link the best.

Yep, a videogame that is exactly like real life without anything slightly "fake" would be so much fun!

I'm new here.
Honestly, is the site active?
I'm Feeling... Out of Place, So to Speak

Well, first of all, it's not like "omg, you're X years old now and you don't have a girlfriend/boyfriend?!". Some people tend to think that but its BS. 95% of relationships in middle/highschool are not "true love". It's mainly just about looking cool if you have a gf/bf or something like that. So don't worry about that. Secondly, I'm certaintly a quiet kid too. I could win a million dollars and just quietly say "...Yay." while someone will scream and jump if they find a penny on the ground. So I sometimes feel excluded. Not so much around my friends though, but when I'm in a class with mostly new faces, I probabyl only say 2 words for the entire class. I just don't like to talk
