What we know about Legend of Zelda Wii prior to E3 2010

is it me, or does it seem like all eyes are on Nintendo this year?

It's kind of interesting how much casual oriented Nintendo's last two conferences were, but we have good reason to believe this year will be different.

It's like bizarro world E3, where Sony and Microsoft focus soley on casual games and have a slow, boring conference (assuming on Sony), while Nintendo is pushing the games and hardware.

And at twice the price.

I'm not sure it'll be different, as far as being casual oriented goes. They still have WiiParty, Vitality Sensor and Wii Relax to demo.
However, with MS basically saying "You're important, but not all that important anymore" to their core fanbase, and Sony looking to do exactly what Nintendo did in 2006, it certainly seems that Nintendo is poised the best this year to wow gamers.

Well, we're usually krumpt whether Nintendo is the market leader or not. But you're right. Since we have Me Too and Me Three. It's time for something else

Man I'm going to have to have to do something for the first 30 or so minutes while the Conference starts. Do you think I'll miss anything important?

We know a bit, you can read up on it on Wikipedia. :)


I wouldn't call it hate. It's just that the game somehow lacked the "heart" other installments have, probably due to the lifeless script.


To hold you guys over, Nintendo's E3 2008 conference in a nutshell. Still hilarious. :lol

It hurt back then...
This whole lack of "heart" thing is dumb and subjective. I thought TP had plenty of "heart".

It seems the only way a zelda can have heart is if the character has huge eyes and acts like a kitty cat.

Yeah, but so is your complete and utter hatred for Wind Waker. (You are that guy, right? I'm not confusing you with someone else?) U:

EDIT: From your edit, gonna go with, yeah, it's you.

Dumb and subjective.

I just can't wait to see how this new Zelda will play, either unimpressed and let down or holy fuck genious!!!!
I still have suspicions though, that the player will control the sword as a seperate character outside of Link. It may be possible to use the nunchuk/analog to control Link, solving puzzles and whatnot. The Wiimote would be the "sword fairy" or sword in battle, where a person could B target and swing for 1:1...Keeping Link protected.
I imagine Link swinging his sword on his own with 1:1 would still work in third person...but for some reason I think it would be akward, and if they want to appeal to the masses they won't go first person either. I just keep thinking about how WSR looked/worked, to keep it from being too ridiculous, Miis didn't have arms, just hands. Link needs his arms lol, and with that "left hand/right hand" divide among players...well this could solve that...

It'll get its own thread once it's announced.
This one will likely be closed in an hour.

It's the last bastion for Nintendo fans... all the other threads were locked.

Crap, the new MOTUC She-Ra and Keldor figures go on sale when the conference starts. They will sell out in seconds, so I'll miss out on the first 5 minutes or so. Can't believe I'm hoping for a delay.

That's what I'm hoping for but this is a longer conference. They might actually do something important during the beginning and pad it out with the numbers and charts.

They might show some "real" games early on or in some montage but they won't show Zelda then, probably will do a whole walk through of the first level of Goldeneye telling us how great the controller is for FPSs.

Cam, maybe you should just watch the conference on your tv (G4) instead of a stream. Could be hazardous to your GAF membership to be on a computer during the conference.

:D
