hey that's odd, after windwaker they said they were producing another game using the windwaker engine and the cellshaded "young" link.
it sounds like the logical course of action considering the amount of work they put in the windwaker engine.

maybe they caved in to all the criticism on how childish it looked or maybe this is a remake of the ocarina of time. (it looks very similar with the teen link on his horse and stuff).
they've been doing a lot of remakes on the cube, resident evil, the twin snakes maybe now the ocarina of time.

Their servers are getting hammered right now so it comes online and goes offline all the time

Fucking WOW!

oh my god, there's a link to a trailer that's so breathtakingly beautifull that my eyes are tearing up and my stomach is full of butterflies.
there's horseback combat and graphics so pretty i can hardly believe it's ingame.

Swords will bleed and shields will shatter!

What platform is this for? Please say GC. Please!

IGN has some great coverage of all things E3.

IGN.com

Of course it's GC!

Sweet. I love Nintendo. Always have, always will.

i, too, thought they would be making a direct sequel to wind waker. this new one looks very pretty too though.

that trailer completely made me forget windwaker, it's epic in ways that cellshaded graphics could never convey. (and i loved windwaker)

Now that is my Link. I enjoyed Windwaker a lot, but this has the feelings I felt when witnessing Ocarina for the first time, its like a new world and encompassing epic. I aggree with snottlebocket, and I am impressed.

Damn I was just about to post this.

Oh well. Looks sweet.

Here are more pics for those who can't access the servers...

i love the atmospheric detail they put into the zelda games to immerse people into the world like the foggy dawn pictures.
did you know that zelda windwaker had reall star constellations?

if you bothered to learn the constellations by using the telescope you could actually navigate your boat by the stars alone.
that's the kind of detail they put in their games.

they had to give all us screaming Link fan girls back the Link that doesn't brand us as pedophiles... ahem.
in other words
OH MY FUCKING GOD YAY .
i too had read that they were doing a sequel in the windwalker format, which i dug, but I didn't ...love
it the way i loved the ...*cough*HOT*cough*... more mature Link

......i am a geek.......

Holy mother of God.

Great, now I have to buy a Gamecube.

Link/Zelda was the only reason i bought a GC lol

does anyone know the release date for this?

'Next year' according to IGN...

Unfortunately it's the only game other than Resi 4 that I'm really interested in on GC. Maybe they'll show us Mario 128 at last, remember they said it was too original to show off last year and they didnt want people nicking their ideas! Maybe bullshit, but still exciting!

the music is really lame on that trailer, though..

have you played metroid prime? GC is worth the price just to play that game , and now they announced the 2th one.

Yeah Metroid Prime 2 is on the way, The Legend of Zelda, Resident Evil 4, Starfox 2, Pikmin 2, Paper Mario 2, Fire Emblem, Cube Wars, Tales of Symphonia, Baten Kaitos, Zelda 4 Swords Adventure, etc. Lots of good stuff coming.

I highly doubt we will ever see Mario 128 on the Gamecube though. I bet they hold it back to launch of the next console.

*orgasms*

seriously my heart just sped up and i'm all giddy now!

just simply wow.
the game i've been hoping for for years

thats really cool...

to be honest i fucking hated wind waker, the cell shading was pretty cool but fuck it was boring.
