Legendary Zela series producer Eiji Aonuma has taken to Wii U social network Miiverse to discuss the recently unveiled The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past successor. Aonuma says development on the game is progressing well and that Nintendo hopes to share more news at a later date. Here’s the message that Aonuma posted on Miiverse.
“Hello everyone, Eiji Aonuma here! In the latest Nintendo Direct, we announced an entirely new Zelda game for Nintendo 3DS, which takes place in the world of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past!”
“I’m sure those of you familiar with A Link to the Past could imagine what kind of game a sequel would be – but I think you’ll be surprised at quite how different it is when you actually play it!”
“Still, that’s difficult to convey just through an announcement, so we’re releasing a 3D video in the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS as well.”
“Experience Hyrule reborn in a highly realistic three-dimensional world. A new story and fresh dungeon puzzles await you in this brand-new Zelda game! Development is progressing well, so expect to hear more about it soon!”
great! let’s hear it when it arrives!
Holiday Season.
I actually mean it as a reaction to: “so expect to hear more about it soon!”
Guess what isn’t going well. Lol.
PS Vita?
No Wii u
Titanic DVD sales
yes titanic dvd sales are horrible
so your sayin’ Vita is doing well?! Pathetic!
if should do your calculations man!
As of week ending of 6th April
2,904,504 units in around 19 weeks for Wii U (152.868 per week)
4,590,919 units in around 68 weeks for PS Vita (67.513 per week)
so yeah, Vita is doing crap compared to wii u
no U are wrong
Explosive-brand alkaline toothpaste?
Your stool? Lol.
Sony? :trollface:
I’ll tell you what is going well walty… Go to Walmart.com and check out their WIIU games list(Coming soon) lol… Hater are going to shart their pants and thats not including the unanounced titles lol. PSWHO?
He said that this is an entirely new Zelda game… lol they’re reusing the same world and even some of the bosses, how’s that entirely new?
U diabeetus?
It’s like saying every game based on Earth or with a humanoid species in it isn’t entirely new for the same reasons.
” but I think you’ll be surprised at quite how different it is when you actually play it!””
you saw one fucking dungeon. omg. chill.
This game takes place in the same dimension as A Link To The Past.
I hope that beyond that dungeon and what I saw, there is a lot more new content.
Give the fans a demo not just the video
nintendo does not release demos of first party games better enjoy that video
Fire Emblem Awakening would like a word with you.
fire emblem is first party? if so, i think he means games made by nintendo only
Yes, Nintendo owns Intelligent Systems, which created the Fire Emblem series.
it’s not first party tho
Ah, yeah it is. Might want to look it up before you make a bigger ass out of yourself.

there’re so many things i want to say to the micro$oft and $ony lovers but they wouldn’t hear it unless i shouted it at them and called them faggots etc.., and that’s why nintendo kicks ass.
This game is gonna be GOOD!
“Highly Realitic”…lol
with highly realistic i think he meant the 3d effevt and how it looks like when Link jumps “into” your face. looks really cool, jsut saw the 3d trailer.
“Legendary Zela series producer” Hehehe.
Anyways, looking forward to the game.
they should have mad this for the wii U
I mean made
Well, they’re making a new Zelda game for the Wii U, so just hold your horses.
Yeah…have you forgotten about Wind Waker HD?
Realistic my Ass lol
he never said anything about the graphics. Use some common sense and you would know he meant obviously the 3d effect.
when will link talk wii u maybe
if link every talks in a zelda game (like full on voice acting) im going to probably stop playing zelda games. i would hate for link to be tarnished with a voice and just fuck up the whole series or that one game. remember metroid other M? we dont want that shit happening again. in fact if ANYONE has full voice acting ill hate it. half the fun of seeing the quirky characters is giving them voices to match (or not match which can be hillairous.
Kid Icarus: Uprising had pretty good voice acting.
Link to the Past was the game that made me fall in love with the Zelda series, cant wait to return to that world.
Guess where the Wii U is at? With the PSVita Lol
not true.
again, do your calculations…
As of week ending of 6th April
2,904,504 units in around 19 weeks for Wii U (approx. 152.868 per week)
4,590,919 units in around 68 weeks for PS Vita (approx. 67.513 per week)
Well then the Wii U is in the depths of the ocean with the Atari Jaguar! LOL
Well then the PlayStation 4 is in the depths of the ocean with the Atari Jaguar! Laugh on that motherfucker! U Bayonetta?
Bringing a casual system into the mix? I see. I think i see the Xbox 720 in the ocean also!
SEGA SATURN 2 FTW.
^U MAD N-DUB, that the wii u, oops i mean shit u!
LOL
Says the poser who’s more of a pussy than a gamer.
Why you bring sexuality to this? Unecessary, you douche. Wii U will fail, just admit it, you Nintendo Pussy! :D
Your math is not very good, is it?
250,000 (approx) isn’t exactly the same as 2.904.504
so…
250.000 units in around 1014 weeks for Atari Jaguar (approx. 247 per week)
Maybe it was clear already… but your argument is wrong.
Wow, you must be proud to waste all that time to do that math for the Shit u and Shitari Jaguar! :D
SEGA FTW
I like to know the facts before I post something. :)
i bet your proud :) Go crawl back in your hole you Wiitard!
I bet you came up with this lame comment due to a lack of inspiration. Come on man, and here I thought you were a real troll… corner me! shout OBJECTION in my face and PRESENT me some evidence to backup you up!
OBJECTION! Yeah i got my inspiration, from the wii u, lame and no support. LOL
GTFO, you’re no troll… just a undefined internet insect species… AND I DISCOVERED YOU!
You didn’t discover nothing, but that you wasted your time ;) your welcome
Man, I wish Sega was still a factor. Damn do they ever suck now…
Wish Nintendo wouldnt rehash games and make new IP’s
*SIGHS*
Tell that to Sony, Meg. You can’t stop Nintendo’s franchise.
You mean we cant stop them rehashing all these games? NOOOO
great. it better be awesome in the end or else.
The only thing I didn’t like about the demo dungeon shown, is that it felt a bit cramped. It didn’t feel like it had a lot of space and rooms to explore, just a lot of vertical distance to ascend.
However, this game is still under development, and I dunno if the point it started at was even the planned main entrance to the dungeon.
For all we know, the demo was the middle-to-end portion of the dungeon.
Thankfully, this game is still under development, so everything we’ve seen so far may change in some ways once the final product is slated for release.
In any case, I’m looking forward to this new game greatly; it’s been “Ages”[nudge nudge] since the last great top-down Zelda, so a new one is more than welcome in my book.^_^

Lol it looks like a game boy advanced game. So realistic
A Link to the Past is the definitive Zelda experience, in my opinion. I’ve loved many of the games, but this one has always stood out. I can’t wait to play a sequel.
Hey My Nintendo News, you said “Zela” instead of “Zelda” in: “Legendary Zela series producer”. Just thought I would let you know. :D
