Also it looks like Link is right-handed now (which makes sense for the mechanics). This combined with a very similar demo on the 3DS makes me wonder if the next portable title will inherit this style rather than continuing with the Wind Waker one.

It just needs to be made a little more uniform, IMO. -------------------- "You must be talking about Heaven... or the moon." "It's a dog eat dog world... and there's not enough dog to go around."

if Nintendo had gone down something more like this route with TWW, the backlash against the graphics wouldn't have been anywhere near as severe, IMO.

Undoubtedly. What bothered people most about that game was not the cheery colors but the disturbing proportions of the characters (in particular huge hads and short stubby legs)

Anyway, that much we can presume to be likely true due to an official statement according to which the game would be already finished, but has been delayed because Miyamoto said "Twilight Princess graphics bad!" Smash tea table Normally I don't mind delays if they are used to make a game deeper (both in terms of contents and lenght), but to delay one in order to completely redraw the damn thing... --------------------

Otherwise Tuf's probably right that they'd call it SWS.

"Nothing you can say will ever convince me that the Zelda, Link & Impa of OOTURA, ALTTPGBA, SC2, BSLOZ, & OOX are different characters, or that Link isn't part Kokiri, FOR SOME Zelda Universes and that the mangas aren't canon FOR SOME alternate realities."

For those wondering about the storyline, well, my good friend Phobetor has made a fanclub for this game over at the ZU forums, & she's also posted a discussion on the game storyline:

EDIT: If it's connected to TMC, then that would definnently explain the mushrooms!!

Not the new Pac-Man cartoon where he's in High School?

Hey guys, I just wanted to see what you all thought of this...

http://www.zeldauniverse.net/forums/zelda-...tml#post3579442

Wouldn't that be awesome?!

EDIT:

Also it looks like Link is right-handed now (which makes sense for the mechanics).

Umm, I'm left-handed, & my right hand is a bit of a TROUBLE-MAKER, so would that pose any problems for me, if I were to try to play it?!
