I could have sworn when I read that roundtable, the developer talked about how the game will not be called Wind Waker 2, and won't be a remake or a sequel.. hmmm...

"So Mr. Aonuma actually wasn't lying at the Game Developer's Conference when he said we were working on Wind Waker 2. He just didn't tell the whole story. And fortunately because he didn't tell the whole story, we were able to surprise you all here with a big announcement about the series."

That quote makes it sound like it WILL be a sequel to WW, which I think would be neat.. If it skipped ahead a number of years, Link is now grown up, they've already found the new continent and established a few towns, but there's still a lot of exploring to do and what have you...

But I thought I heard it was confirmed to not be a sequel...

Edit: Oh, and another thought... It doesn't even have to be the same link in the game... It could take place generations in the future where there is already a nice established hyrule, and the backstory to the intro could be the story of what happened after WW... So technically it wouldn't be a true sequel to WW... Unless you count WW to be a true sequel to OoT...
