Topic: Legend of Zelda - The official Zelda thread

[Phi]

Yeah, it's not loading for me either.

[Mirby]

It loaded for me. Basically it says that the quote was taken out of context, that Aonuma says he meant it jokingly. Like "No one said it isn't Link, but no one said it was either."

[Police Girl]

Oh damn.

And here I thought maybe we'd get the first actual zelda game with a female protagonist.

[OBJECTION MAN]

I think Link being a girl in this one would be an easy transition to make. I'd personally be interested to see such a thing happen. It could even go as far as being a choice the player has at the beginning. Being a silent protagonist, it wouldn't be too difficult to engineer. They just have to be careful with the NPC's reference to the player, which could be also just as easily change the lines of dialog depending on the player's chosen gender really.

[Amatiramisu]

I want guy Zelda then.

Nice batch of Hyrule Warriors screens.  Old news by now, but the new girl is a magic-user named Lana.  Agatha (the bug girl from Twilight Princess) is also playable.  Um...okay?  Guess someone felt the need to make sure that Midna wouldn't be the weirdest member of the cast.

Speaking of which, Midna gets some nice action in the screens as well, including one of her performing the "Hookshot the MM moon" maneuver.

There will also be Twilight Princess costumes for Link and Zelda as DLC.  Cool idea, though to be honest, I'm really digging their Hyrule Warriors designs anyway, so yeah.


"Now let's see, who should I kill first with this?"

Lana trailer!

[Hypershell]

I guess Lana is supposed to be significant to the story if she's on the cover art?  Some of the screens seem to indicate her being off to a rocky start with Midna, should be interesting.

I like Lana's design overall; it's like they threw a Fire Emblem mage into the Zelda world.  If Micaiah had ludicrously overpowered attacks for taking out waves of enemies at a time, I'd imagine it would look something like that.

Agitha trailer, complete with TP Hyrule Field remix.

[OBJECTION MAN]

She's trolling all the enemies with OP spirit bugs or something. A+

[Blue Valkyrie]

Yeah that's a fun looking move set, the TP over world track used there sounded good too.

[Protoman Blues]

Yeah, very nice! Cannot wait to see who else they have in store for us.

Midna in action! 

[Hypershell]

Nothing we didn't see in the Treehouse vids, but still freaking sweet.  The image of Midna wrangling a dragon down to the ground with the Hookshot is oddly fitting.


Now onto more recent events:

Did you know boots go on feet?

[Protoman Blues]

There's a 95% chance I'm gonna love using her! 

[Mirby]

Groosenator confirmed.

[RetroRespecter]

We don't know that yet.

[Phi]

I laughed harder at this than I should've...

[spoiler]Phi finds Fi photo funny. [/spoiler]

[Sakura Leic]

I always pronounced Fi as Fee.

[Protoman Blues]

So did I

[Phi]

It probably is pronounced like that. Still makes for a decent tongue-twister to say 5 times fast.

[Mirby]

We don't know that yet.

I said Groosenator.

Which is the name of the catapult.

That is in that picture from the official Japanese site.

So yes, we do know that the Groosenator is confirmed because I linked a photo of it.

[Archer]

Sure is shaping up to be Waifu Warriors here.

[spoiler]I don't have a problem with that.[/spoiler]

[Protoman Blues]

It suuuuuuure is!

[Blue Valkyrie]

Thats a pretty creative move set, I gotta give this DW spin off some credit; the characters all look fun to play.
