The new Zelda

[Ric]

While busy going about my life I went on Nintendo's website and saw something that stunned me. So here I am ready to impart my opinions.

Firstly, Hi everyone, how you doing? I am in London at the moment staying with my brother.

This game looks pretty damn good, you can even see individual links in the chainmail that Link wears under his green tunic. The attention to detail seems great.

It will be cool if this game is in fact a prequel to OoT, If anyone remembers, Link is told in OoT that his father went to fight in hylian wars and his mother fled to the lost woods then disappeared and left him there with the Deku Tree. Mabey you play as link's father who is in fact just another incarnation of Link (as Link in WW is a different incarnation from a different time as the one in say, MM) that would explain the fighting on horseback etc.

Dunno, either way this game looks the sh!t and I for one will be keeping a close eye on it.

RIC!!! How are you????? Payed the bill?

That's a pretty cool idea... Link's father.

It never says Link's father went to fight in the wars, only that his mom went to the Kokiri Forest to escape from the wars.

I doubt it'd be a prequel anyway. If this game is connected to any previous Zelda game at all, it is probably going to be either a sequel to the Wind Waker, or a game showing what happened to the OoT Link after MM.

Yeah I'd like to see what happened between OoT and TWW.

Link's father died while protecting the King of Hyrule.

When does it say that in the game? If its not in the game, its not canon and doesn't count.

*grumbles*Somebody gave me -rep AGAIN for posting a "spoiler" without a warning...*

Nintendo released a short comic about it... There the story was told. But of course, they could change it...

*looks it up*

I see... Wasn't released here. Anyway....

Typically, that's not considered canon by those people who try to figure out the whole storyline of Zelda and such. Also, since it was made in Europe (first in Germany, then translated to Dutch) than the people in charge of this game most likely have never heard of it (or read it at least).

The chances of this game having any sort of relation to Link's father from OoT is very very slim.

Here's my possible theory on the game's story. Maybe it takes place after MM and explains everything that creates the world in WW. Because we dont know what happens in the time from MM where the world floods over and all that is left are mountain peek islands. I think the game has to go back to classic zelda style, with the horse and bow and arrow and HYRULE, i want another REAL Zelda game.
