Well, at one point there were people thinking that the new girl on the picture of the new Zelda for Wii is the Master Sword in a physical form. Well there has been an interview about it with Shigeru Miyamoto.

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.

IGN: Does the game follow the story progression of Twilight Princess or is it something completely different?

Shigeru Miyamoto: I can't go into details except to say that it's something completely different.

IGN: You just mentioned that the game audience is shrinking and that Nintendo is always looking for ways to entice new players. Is this something that you're thinking about for the new Zelda, too, or is there a separation where that's off limits because the franchise is traditionally hardcore?

Shigeru Miyamoto: I think we do this with Mario and Zelda as well. When we are working on the plans for them, we are trying to come up with ways where we can satisfy our longtime fans and bring new players into the franchises as well. That's something we're always looking at. However, when I get involved in a title, I focus a lot on more experience and the more advanced gameplay elements. If I get into it, there's a tendency for difficulty levels to ramp up so that's something I really have to watch for myself to make sure that I don't do that.

On another note, if you are a ghostbuster's fan, take time to play the new game for PS3, 360, Wii, DS, and PS2, however, it is best on 360 and PS3. It is an amazing game. Totally full of nastalgia and all the original actor's came back and did the voices for the charaacters.
Until Next time...

Today, I did a little editing and re-organizing. I combined the beta pics pages to the corresponding games. I also added a link above to the 2009 E3 coverage. That is all.

Well, today I changed a couple of small things. I combined the release dates page to reflect onto the actual Nintendo Zelda games page. That way I could create room for more things important. In addition to the change I also moved the list of Zelda games that were cancelled, to the same page.
Also by clicking the above link where it says "The Legends of Zelda" there is another logo there that says VizKids. This logo is used for the book series of Zelda that is out. So that also means I have them up on the page now. I will be buying all of them, so when each comes out, I will update that. My next project is the storyline change.
In addition to the above things, Four Swords Adventures section has been combined with the Wind Waker section just because there isn't really that much info on FSA and they can share a page since they shared a system together.
WOW, there is alot today. Finally, I think, I have shortened the Compendium a bit. Four theories were removed due to inactivity.
Well, I hope that is a good enough update, Until Next Time...

Well, yesterday I picked up the next Zelda book installment. Just in case you don't know what I mean, a guy has been making the Zelda games into manga books, kinda like comics. They are worth a read. That puts Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Oracle of Seasons, and Oracle of Ages out now. A section will be made soon to show the pics on what they look like. Take some time to go to your local book store and find these. They are awesome. That is about it.
