    I sort of figured that Nintendo would eventually release this image, which is the first from the next Legend of Zelda game on the Wii. That's a good thing, because I couldn't really find a great way to describe the way the girl in the foreground looks.

    So what do you think? Zelda in some kind of weird armor? The living embodiment of the Master Sword or the Triforce or something? Will you have to hold her hand and sit on a couch to save the game?

    I really hope it turns into a sword, not something radically different to Zelda games. Then again, maybe they can pull it off.

    Link isn't holding a sword so I guess she is the sword... maybe you toss strange balls to capture a large variety of "swords"  with the number of possible catches being 151 or more. =P

    For some reason, I keep thinking Twilight Princess when I see that thing.  Or Ruto (I think that was her name...the Zora from Ocarina of Time).

    That's Link's spanking hand.  You can tell by his intense gaze and her petrified look.

    Hmm.  Link has no sword, and she seems kind of sword-like.  Interesting.

    But tragically, it looks like Link will be a righty, again.  Damn you and your persecution, you anti-sinistrists!  Why do you do this to us?!

    I would say that the statue is a key to locating the Master Sword, not the Sword itself. I know Nintendo is a little off its game, what with...a train, but a sword that magically transforms into a statue? Nuh-uh.

    Also, the statue isn't near his sword hand, it is near his sheathe. But if he has his shield in one hand, why would his sword be sheathed? No, it isn't his sword. It has something to do with Princess Zelda and the location of the Ocarina of Time, the Master Sword, or both. Well, I guess we'll have to wait and see. Only Time will tell....

    The next Zelda game is going in the direction of a Dead Rising clone. You'll have to survive 42 hours in a hyruliean mall. You can only save the game by resting on a couch. You'll receive annoying radio transmissions from Navi.

    That's almost identical to what the Great Fairies looked like in Wind Waker.

    Weird.

    Twilight Princess was not the kind of mature that I wanted. Personally I wanted a more well told story that eventually gets to the point where you yourself go "oh man this is just fucked'. They can do that in Wind Waker graphics without violence as far as I care, as long as I dont have to un-freeze the Zora's for the hundredth time.

    After seeing how terrible Twilight Princess and Phantom Hourglass were, I'm not overly excited for another Zelda game to be on the radar.  I mean, I loved Majora's Mask and and Wind Waker, but Spirit Tracks isn't going to do anything but disappoint me.  I hope that I am unable to say that about this new Wii project.

    @Hailinel: Link will always be left-handed to me. Screw the Wii version of Twilight Princess.

    I'm really hoping that right-handedness only appears in concept art and doesn't extend to the actual game.

    It's Link's love child with Zelda.

    By the way, are they doing a complete reboot of the franchise and just calling this the Legend of Zelda?
