Miyamoto Has Been Trying To Get Aonuma To Do Zelda A Link To The Past On 3DS For Years

In his interview with Spike, producer of Zelda games since the original Wind Waker, Eiji Aonuma, discussed his interactions with Shigeru Miyamoto regarding A Link To The Past. He admitted that Miyamoto has been trying to get him to make A Link To The Past for 3DS ever since the handheld console’s release. Miyamoto, who famously originated the Zelda series and is responsible for producing the much-loved A Link To The Past so many years ago, has been “constantly in [Aonuma’s] ear” about recreating the SNES classic. Aonuma implied that these discussions were the impetus for him to take on A Link Between Worlds, which uses the same over-world map as A Link To The Past. Here are Aonuma’s comments on the matter:

“Since the 3DS came out, Mr. Miyamoto has always been on me about making A Link To The Past for the 3DS. He’s always saying, “Why haven’t you made it yet? Why haven’t you made it yet? Just kind of constantly in my ear about that. When I would do it was up to me, but it’s kind of been something that has been on my plate.”

    1. Someone got dropped on their head at birth. Not only was down syndrome included it appears trolling or ADHD was too.

    2. Fuck you, you scummy little shit. That man is more important than anything in your life, anything you will ever accomplish, anything you will ever be. Just sit down and have a seat.

      1. Whoa Nelly! Simmer down. Did Rita make leftovers again for dinner? That wench! Calm down young brother. By allowing the feeble minded to get under your skin so easily is like admitting defeat. Show you are the better person. Stay above the fray. Besides, that purple guy kind of kicked Lord Zedd’s ass in that one movie. Does it matter? No. Because Power Rangers is a friggin ripoff of Voltron! Great cartoon as you are well aware. I can hear the intro music now. Yeah…

    3. Wow. Someone here desperately needs to get laid. Otherwise, please drop dead immediately. You’re a waste of God’s time and creation and that’s just fucking sad to see.

      1. Which god are we talking about here – Zeus, Amen Ra, Allah, Buddah…? Or the “MOST IMPORTANT” one? The one who gave thumbs up to mass murder of innocent children, homosexuals and giving up virgin daughters as tools?

            1. Aren’t all gamers? The more hardcore, the further down they are on the list of what’s considered “normal”, cool, or popular.

              1. I hate to agree with you, but its the truth. We all.. i mean they all will spend more and more time controller in the hand, until you realize you are doing it 24/7 and theres no turnin back anymore. Gamin think twice before you start.

                    1. unless if its an rpg im in too, i will play that much. the last few months i havnt played much. me average is like 10 hours a week, if i actual play things.

  1. Anyone else feel like every time Aonuma talks about Zelda, the less and less you want Miyamoto to be involved in it?

    I get the feeling Aonuma is basically in the same boat as us, where he has ideas for Zelda that we all want to see, and ways to progress the series but Miyamoto is just like “no, do this”.

      1. Look what other creative minds did with Donkey Kong, I don’t hate Miyamoto either, but he needs to lighten up. The old sourpuss just couldn’t admit Rare did a good job, but opted instead in calling those who liked DKC graphic whores. What a sore loser.

    1. I’m totally glad to have LBW but I would love a remake of ALTTP, that’s the only game I will give allowance to, being that it is, in many peoples eyes, the best game ever made. I’m at least waiting for a VC release for the Wii U so I can play on my gamepad. I would much prefer it on my gamepad than my 3DS XL.

    1. Remember when Aonuma said we would get clues about a Majora’s Mask’s remake by playing A Link Between Worlds ? Well, there is a Majora’s mask hanging on the wall in the shop, so… :3

  2. Question: Why didnt dumbtendo allow Wii U to support Adobe Flash? Is it too weak to handle it? I want to watch other videos besides just youtube you. Dumbtendo not thinking of adobe Flash back in 08′

  3. Am I the only one to notice that this is like the 2nd or 3rd article based on info from the Spike interview? I mean, I know this site has it’s issues, but how can you milk so many “news stories” from a single interview. I’d rather they simply say “here’s a great interview: discuss!”

    It’s not the first time I notice this, but I don’t know if this is a typical “weblog” type of thing or not.

        1. What I want to know is why the name “troll” was given to them. And that is a serious question. I mean, I get that anti-trolls like to say trolls have no life, live under a bridge and all that, but to me, it seems kind of childish to call people trolls. If you want to call them a loser or something then ok, but troll? How did that get started?

          1. @ Anonymous,
            I used to think that too. Like, trolls? O…..k. Then I just got used to that term. The only other word for them is bully. But even that sounds childish. So, I guess the only REAL word to call them that describes them perfectly is “assholes”. LOL!
            Because lets face it, that’s what they are.

            1. The girls dig the assholes LOL: just look at world around you, nice guys finish last. How about just calling them ‘big meanies’ or ‘poo-poo heads’ – that seems more suitable for someone who actually take their remarks to heart.

                  1. you need to be accomandating and tollerant of others, as the world gets smaller those two things are most important, with the internet though, the floodgates have been opened for the most riddiculous intollerance imaginable.
                    the birth of keyboard cowboys.
