As I am currently in the middle of a ton of exams, I have allocated newswriting for the next week to my trusty staff-member companions. The following is from The Ocarina. I have been warned I am not allowed to edit it in any way, shape or form (title included). And who am I to refuse a free news article? So, without further ado…
From the gullets of the Nintendo of America president himself, Reggie Fils-Aime has announced that Iwata and company are more than spouting off a few words about making a great next Zelda console game. Rather, it seems that Nintendo is hell-bent on making the perfect Zelda game. The next installment to the series, tentatively titled “The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Breaker”, features what appears to be a mysterious blue character and a sword-less Link, a reoccurring element of the game that originates in the first Legend of Zelda before Link finds the old man in the cave.
Following the announcement, Zelda fans presumably got a little annoyed before reading the next article on Kotaku. In response to the mass reaction, Reggie is misquoted as saying “Cool your jets. We just gave you a good holiday haul, and even a feature-packed Zelda for the Nintendo DS. Just let us finish the game to the best of our abilities, or Miyamoto has threatened to introduce another Triforce-hunting filler. Please don’t pressure us into that again.”
The game is slated for a 2010 release.
