It's NYC and it's a line of 400ish people (at the time of recording, at least) that were waiting there for about 7-8 hours...
...but it's normally like that.

Oh yeah, something funky is definitely going on at Hyrule Castle, assuming that's it. I really do wonder what the story reason is for all those tall towers are. I'm guessing they're going to be like the ones in Far Cry 3

Pretty much every medieval RPG has taken inspiration from LotR.

You do realize that LOTR is a modernization of the traditional medieval and Northeastern Europe culture narrative right? Of course tons of things take from it, it's in our culture to do so.
However, I see more Mononoke than LOTR in the case of Zelda.

It always amazes me that Miyamoto looks really young at his age.

I thought up a scenario for the possible male/female "Link" thing:
-You have to play with both.
-One of the characters is always imprisoned.
-Some kind of a "dimensional" scifi thing makes it possible to switch the character who is imprisoned and who is out in the world.
-When you want to switch, the character you are playing with teleports in the prison and the character who is in the prison teleports in the world and becomes playable.
-You have to figure out a way to resolve the situation by switching in between the characters.
-Whenever the character who was originally imprisoned becomes playable, you'll have to advance stealthy so that Ganon & co. wouldn't find out what you are up to (it would explain the use of the hood with the other character).
Interesting? Stupid?

That's not a Zelda main title experience then. I would hope fans would berate Nintendo for it.
that would ruin E3 for me.
And the game.
And I am saying that as someone who loved Four Swords. For mainline titles I want single-player

LOL! Miyamotos all like, "WTF and I doing here with these nut jobs?"
Edit: almost looks like he's wincing with pain.
Did you hear something about this Zelda being multiplayer oriented or is this just a supposition of yours?
when I read the username that was my fear as well.

They already ruined xenoblade in part because of designing the game with the multiplayer features in mind, and triforce heroes was boring from start to end.
So I really hope not.

I can't believe it, but Orgen just killed my hype. Now I'm expecting some multiplayer Zelda game...
Here's my theory:
- Triforce Heroes concept expanded (you need several players to complete a dungeon, beat a boss... etc.)
- Link is an NPC not the traditional hero of past games (this could explain several heroes like female Link)
- The climb thing is going to be a main theme on the game (I'm jokingly calling the game "Triforce Climbers").
- The Treehouse demo will be multiplayer focused (that's where I think resides the main novelty... maybe something related to the interaction between them? getting ítems, beating bosses... etc.?)
And yeah, the reaction from the gamers would be a repeat of the Wind Waker reveal hahaha
Edit: hahaha relax guys! It's just my opinion ;D
Argh... I would HATE that ! I just want a classic Zelda more story driven with a plethora of optional quests (MM like)
Edit : Everybody has different tastes
Freaking really?

I mean it could be cool if I saw it, but I just prefer a real single player Zelda experience. I know Aonuma said he's thinking of changing the convention of playing by yourself so I don't know what could come from that.

I love this. I want this. Just put me in the world and let me explore.
I have to ask about the weather, does that mean maybe I'll be slowly riding in a forest with Epona and all of a sudden it could start snowing?

No more "you have to do this dungeon and this one and so on..." If done well that's could be fantastic
I'm hoping for something with a lot of exploration and interaction with NPC to find the next place to go or how to get there. Some detective work kinda
I know it is not going to happen, but would love to see that "lot of work done on weather" becomes a "season mechanics" like in Oracle of Seasons. That game still amazes me.

Yep, that's Zelda 1 open gameplay for you.
Honestly, if they really can capture the feeling of the artworks from Zelda 1, this will be my no. 1 Zelda game ever, no matter the negative things it might have.
Yep I also prefer a single player Zelda experience but I think they're showing these 2 concepts (redefine play by yourself and the climbing) because they're the keys of the game. Can you imagine something like climbing a huge boss with other 4 players and try to hunt him ala Monster Hunter? Even if it's different from all the previous Zelda games I think it could be cool

if i'm not mistaken, what aonuma meant by "play by yourself" wasn't a multiplayer concept, but rather giving the game a feature similar to the tingle bottles in wind waker hd, where you make a post and throw into the water for other players to find. Sometimes people would give free photos from the sidequest where you need to take pictures of many characters of the game. I think the game will follow this idea.

This is legit the most HYPE I've ever been for a ZELDA game!
This ZELDA game just seems so amazing! We've been shown nothing, but I have no doubts that this game is something realllly special

Maybe he was referring to something similar to Dark Souls, like summoning help from other users or seeing hints with a system similar to what you're suggesting. Anyway, we'll see in less than 30 hours!
Hahaha yep, I expect these kind of reactions if that's the case
It sounds insanely different from what we're used to. But I trust Nintendo to do something like this well. I'd be very surprised but... TFH was excellent in a lot of ways and could be much, much better depending on the online experience and the console Zelda aspects present that weren't on hand in TFH (i.e. an overworld). Certainly TFH had inspired and unique dungeon design sensibilities in many areas, not to mention a higher difficulty bar that would make many pleased.
BTW, here's my GOTY thread write-up on the game for those who haven't played it:
This .gif encapsulates some of the kind of fun to be had in the game:
Wow, you know, I wonder whether voice chat would be a thing in an online MP Zelda. Unsure if Nintendo would suddenly be OK with voicechat--did XCX have it? If not, perhaps they'd use the chat buttons again.
