Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma mentioned on the latest edition of Iwata Asks that The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword originally featured an item called Rocket Fists which eventually turned into the beetle item.
“At first, it was a boomerang. We thought it might fun if you could tilt the Wii Remote Plus so it flew however you wanted and tried out some things, but then we started talking about how that simply wasn’t much like a boomerang.”
“And it had a camera. We wanted to think of an item that would fit better with that feature and came up with rocket fists.
“At that time, it could also grab things, so we thought it would be cool if something like a hand were flying around.”
“In the end, it turned into a beetle. The way it looks like it flies out from your arm is leftover from the rocket fist.”
glad it became a beetle!
yay first!!
:P
Me too. Link doesn’t need to be adventuring with Thing from The Addams Family.
For some reason… I think of MvC’s Sentinel and imagine Link going “ROCKET PUNCH.”
Rocket Punch. Not as good as Falcon Punch.

That statue is terrifying. O_O
Don’t use it again, sickr, for the love of Din, Nayru, and Farore.
Link looks like a fish with his mouth agape xD
33 days (USA)!
i feel, that in my honest opinion, legend of zelda: skyward sword, will be better then elder scrolls 5.
elder scrolls 5 is a real sequel unlike zelda which is the same exact game as ocarina time dont waste ur mony and buy elder scrolls!!!!111 trust me im a hardcore gamer
I doubt you’ve played a Zelda game or at least beaten one.
Don’t call yourself a hardcore gamer if you only like one system and bash the others. You’re a limited gamer, not hardcore.
Call yourself one when you start playing games regardless of system, genre, or popularity.
On another not: why are you even on this site just to bash Nintendo? Get a life, fanboy.
Lol, people completely missed your sarcasm. Or you are as stupid as you sound.
I think they’ll both be good game about equal to each other. But I’ll end up playing Zelda more.
TROLRORLOL more selda shit!111111 it suks is the same game from ocarina time!!11 get real sequels lik battlefield 3!!!111 or fifaaa fuck zelda!!!!!!
ummm, it’s differnt from Ocarina of time dumbass, It’s a mix of every Zelda game made. Watch all the trailers and stuff before saying something thats not true. SO get your facts right. :/ Ohhh my gosh a Ps3 lover no wonder why u hate a series uve never played before I bet. Go play your STUPID, MINDLESS SHOOTER GAMES.
I have seen videos and is the same game retard but with cartoon graphics cuz the wii sux GET UR FACTS RIGHT
Whatever, keep thinking that. Have you ever even tried the wii. And the graphics don’t matter. Like I said go play ur stupid ps3 little boy.
Spell check much?
Kidding or not, you don’t sound very smart right now.
Fifa and Battlefield are also the same as their predecessors, if you scope of comparison is so broad…
“ps3awesominator”
Yep, he’s a troll
He even managed to misspell trololol
“Which came first, the chicken or the egg?”
“The Rocket Powered Fist!”
Coming here to bash the topic of discussions seems so 90’s. Do you really think someone is going to take to heart what you said ps3semonator and actually consider buying Elder Scrolls 5 instead of Skyward Sword after already deciding to by Skyward Sword? Here’s a tip, don’t waste your time.
see, a winner is me cuz im just buying both! mwahahahah =P
Same, they both look really good. Pre-ordered Zelda and I’ll get around to buying Skyrim at some point.
Rocket Fists? Nintendo can’t come up with anything better than ”Rocket Fists”?
Obviously they did, since they ended up with the Beetle.
too bad the game doesnt have higher res and surround sound. it wouldve of bin EPIC.
I think it would be epic with or without them. In fact, if it becomes epic even without those things, then that’s real epicness.
