New official concept art!!!!!

Ghirahim (main villain)

And you may have seen these images of Link before when they were released last year...but look carefully....the sword is different in these new ones, presumably it's the Skyward Sword (before it becomes the Master Sword I'm guessing).

Sorry everyone, I haven't been updating this regularly, but I come with EXCITING NEWS.

After sifting through shitloads of "fake" "official" music, I was able to find some actual Official Skyward Sword music. As you all know this Zelda will be fully orchestrated, EXCITEMENT FOR MUSIC FAGS LIKE ME. Ahem anyways, here's some of it:Lovely, ain't it?~


Alright, now a clever youtube user ( I forgot his name) discovered a very nice Easter Egg in the Skyward Sword trailer. Just watch the trailer backwards, and you'll s**t bricks.
TRUST ME.
BRICKSSSSSSS

It's also been confirmed that Skyward Sword will be released after Ocarina of Time 3DS...which saddens, because I will not be able to get my hands on it for a long time. ; A ;

Time to relive the nostalgia on my N64.

STAY TUNED, E3 IS JUST IN A COUPLE OF DAYS!
I'm sure there will be more leaks about Skyward Sword (and other games) soon!

Signing off, Soviet-Titties <3

E3 2010 Update, June 15, 2010

Ok so there was a bit more revealed at E3.

Here's a teaser trailer released:
Skywar Sword

So apparently the game is called Skyward Sword. And to many people's anticipation, the game is not realistic like Twilight Princess, but it's cel-shaded once again.

AND LET ME JUST SAY, BEFORE ANYONE BASHES CEL-SHADING, JUST STFU. Miyamoto himself expressed that he liked the cel-shading graphics when WindWaker was released. And really everyone? Stop bashing the graphics!!! Back in my day, gamers cared about the story and how fun the game was to play, not the graphics, so back off!

And here's the gameplay, for those that are still real gamers that care about gameplay:
E3 Gameplay

AS you can see, the game play is amazing. They're using the Wii motion plus, as you can see demonstrated, the sword is not patterned as it was in Twilight princess, but you can now control it. Looks like 2ch was right, with this new feature battling enemies was now going to become a puzzle itself.

And for you Zelda music nerds out there, listen closely to the track. I might be wrong, but it sounds a bit like the Overture from the Hyrule Symphony. Maybe perhaps they are going to use a full orchestra?

If you want a little bit more information, here'es an interview of Miyamoto talking about the newest Zelda:

here's a Link (no pun intended) to the many screenshots on the Skyward Sword:

Miyamoto's personal Demonstration gameplay

I'll be updating this once more sites are up with information.

[Thank you to FireArcher for posting the Video link]


And in unrelated news, other games that were demonstrated at E3 that Im excited about is a new Kirby, and the Return of Donkey Kong Country, and many more!
Donkey Kong Country Returns

Here's the gamplay and teaser trailers of Metroid the Other M. And if you're a huge Metroid fanatic, than you're going to love this game. It seems it's going to get more in depth and personal with Samus. Perhaps it'll be an emotionally charged storyline. And if you're wondering who the guy in that vid is, his name is Adam. He's mentioned in Metroid Fusion by Samus. He was her CO, and it seems that she was attached to him in some way. Romantically or not, we don't know.

Metroid Other M

Kirby...lol, I just can't help but laugh at it's title. Kirby's Epic Yarn Adventure. rofl
The game play reminds me a lot of Yoshi's Island for the N64.

Kirby's Epic Yarn Adventure

Ahh, another game that makes me super excited....Kid Icarus!!!!! Yes that's right! They're making Kid Icarus once again, and it looks amazing.

Kid Icarus

It seems us old gamers are getting our wishes of revisiting our childhood games huh?
Well, another one is Tron. Yes, we all remember Tron.
Tron

Lol, this is getting out of hand....but here's Mortal Kombat. The good ol' days of fighting games....
MORTAL KOMBAT

There's an announced port of the original Kingdom Hearts for the 3DS.
KINDGOM HEARTS


Omfg, I had an Epic j**z on this one, it's a remake of StarFox 64 for the 3DS. I was actually deciding to skip out on the 3DS, but after I saw this, I said screw it to the money I was saving for an Ipod TOuch.

Just putting this in case any of you play Monster Hunter...
Monster Hunter Freedom 3

And this is for the special Star Wars part in all of us....
Froce UnleashedII

I know right! I can't wait. >w<

And I discovered something...my girl has been to E3 before. Wtf, she has some deep connections. I was amazed when she told me, and it was a regular friend that told her.

Although, she's not going to this years...but still, wtf?! I wanna go to E3 if she gets tickets again! D;

Lol we're high school kids on summer break, nothing better to do. ;o

Lol but yeah you're right, when I saw the graphics (I liked them), I was kind of startled. I didn't expect it. I thought personally that they were going to improve the realism graphics on Twilight Princess.

Although, it seems really fun.

And once again, I have that nostalgic feeling in my tummy, whenever you hear about a new Zelda. Ooooh, Im so excited. I love that feeling when you've been waiting for a game to be released, and the moment you get it at your store, bring it home and pop it in, and the first thing is you see the introduction trailer, best feeling evah!!!!!! >w<

I'm also excited about the newest Kirby, Donky Kong, and Metroid game. Especially Metroid, I have an unhealthy obsession with Samus....yes, more than Malon.

let's see, there's also Pokemon Black&White, the Newest Metal Gear Rising, Halo Reach, this is a good year >w<

It looks spectacular. Although I have kind of a feeling as though Nintendo's trying to aim Zelda at a younger audience...possibly....although maybe that's just me. xD

I love all of the colors! It really is beautiful even if it is cel-shaded.

XD That's awesome!

Wait, if it's coming out in 2010, is that in Japan or North America?

(And I'm assuming it'd be coming out around... oh, Christmas time because Nintendo has forever been sneaky about that).
