Minish Cap would be pretty amazing. I would feel a whole lot less angry about buying at launch if that were the case.
They said to connect your eShop account to your Club Nintendo account by the 27th if you want coins for the Ambassador Games, which sounds like a pretty strong hint that we'll be getting them with the shop update on Thursday. In typical Nintendo fashion, they haven't actually announced the release date yet, but that might never happen. 
I think Minish Cap has a good chance because you can get Link to the Past on the Wii VC (and probably eventually on the 3DS VC if they ever add SNES games) and Four Swords is already available for free anyway. Also it's still Zelda's 25th Anniversary.
It would also be another drop in the Skyward Sword hype bucket for several reasons.

Some of 'em are really quick cleanups/cutouts, so if you're gonna use one and you want it fixed up more just let me know.

I think it's finally time to man-up and
finish Spirit Tracks.
I think I'm in the final section of the Spirit Tower, but it has been a few years and I have forgotten all the capabilities of the Zelda/Link tag-team.
Edit: Gah! If anything, using a FAQ makes it even more tedious and annoying.

Yesterday I decided to unwrap the LoZ:OoT 3DS copy I was wanting to sell on ebay. Since ebayers are morons and will pay good money regardless of whether the copy is new or used, I decided to give it a try.
What a bad impression.
.- Child link is butt ugly.
.- Maybe it's my fault but can't seem to press straight up and link keeps running to the side.
.- Pressing the screen in order to change stuff is as annoying as pressing start in a GCN or N46 controller. Definitely not a game to control on a handheld, it was cumbersome the hour I was playing it.
.- Not a looker at all, I must say, and defintiely not the game to showcase the technical capacities of the 3DS, whatever they are.
Overall, what I thought it was going to be the whole time: a lazy, modest port that shall appeal to those with different hands and that never have played the game before on far better hardware.
The GCN collector's edition remains my definite version. I think I'lll just sell this and get it over with, I don't see myself playing it in the next months or anytime, to be honest.

I don't get the point of this port. It is inferior in every way compared to at least one pre-existing version of the game. It has no new content and it doesn't uses the 3DS's features in any meaningful or susbstantial way.
why waste resources here?
I just hope newer generations think different from me and enjoy the game like I did back in the day.
It's actually a ground-up remake. And it's not like Ocarina of Time needed a lot of changes. It's still one of the best games ever made.
I don't know how anyone could prefer the original version. The 3DS one is almost exactly the same except better in some very objective ways....

They made some artistic changes in the 3DS version that I totally disagree with. Besides the aforementioned changes to the Young Link/Link's model, off the top of my head, the final battle with Ganon has some changes that look like shit.
Comparison shot.
Oh, and I prefer the N64/Gamecube controller to the 3DS and it's touchscreen.

The framerate alone makes OoT3D the superior version.

Why does he have cleavage in the 3DS shot? I don't remember ever seeing that. Is it just a shadow? Can't un-see!
3DS is still better. :/

Guys Mario in Mario 64 looks so much better than his stupid Mario Galaxy model!! Screw official art, who the hell do these official artists think they are?

So much better in 1996.

I actually originally typed SM64DS but I changed it to Galaxy to make it more outrageous. But this reflects my original post and is actually a better analogy for Roto13 and Anth0ny's craziness.
lol at guys posting comparison pics to counterargument my comments.
Yeah, Child Link model is ugly, in my opinion, but that doesn't make the game inferior to the pre-existing versions.
In Oot 3D, Link moves slowly and it's a bit hard/annoying to control him with the 3ds's analog stick, which will never be as responsive and confortable as the analog stick of the N46 or the GCN. Pressing the the L button to reset the camera is annoying because I don't normally have any finger in there so I have to place my hands in ways I don't feel very comfortable.
to me framerate means nothing, I don't even notice it and as for graphics, both are o.k., yeah softer, eye-friendlier stuff on 3DS but in general not too dissimliar to call them "light years apart", I personally don't care for the looks of either game as of now, the gameplay stands the test of time and I basically don't mind jaggies or blocky graphics, etc.
I only saw kokiri forest and deku tree temple so that's my reference, maybe I should pay more to see more (meaningful) differences.
