Eiji Aonuma had an interview with Official Nintendo Magazine saying that there are changes in store for the new Zelda Wii title that might ensue some surprising reactions. The Zelda producer also added that there is hope that something will be shown for next year’s E3.
Does this mean we’ll only be getting a video of what’s to come, or will we get some hands on demonstration? We’ll make sure to follow up with any news as it comes by our way.
A Spirit Tracks commercial has finally been aired in North America, which is likely to be the first of many.
Our friend Nathan over at ZeldaInformer has compiled a wish-list of features and tidbits that he would like to see appear in Spirit Tracks. If you’ve ever had ideas for ways to improve the Zelda series, this is a welcome read, and Nate addresses the flaws that were present in Phantom Hourglass that should most certainly be fixed in Spirit Tracks (such as the lackluster soundtrack).

The Official Nintendo Magazine answered questions from curious Zelda fans on their website.

The Sacred Realm is reporting that the first independent Zelda film, The Hero of Time, will be released online through video sharing site Dailymotion. The official date of release is clocked in at just under one month away – December 14, 2009 – and with some good old-fashioned patience, we’ll all soon be watching The Hero of Time in our comfortable chairs through a certain series of tubes.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 may be the fastest selling game of all time, but it certainly doesn’t ignore its inspirations. One fan has managed to catch what could be a subtle nod to the Zelda series present on the arm of Modern Warfare 2’s cameo uniforms. Someone at Infinity Ward must be a Zelda fan – unless that rogue Google employee is also a game developer.
There was quite a bit of time skipped between Ocarina of Time and The Wind Waker. Just what happened in that time? Aside from The Wind Waker’s illustrated introduction, we know little about what actually happened in between the two games.

There are a lot of Zelda-related items and accessories for sale around the internet. This rubber duck version of Link, for example, went on sale on eBay recently, fetching a price of US $15.
Not all of the Zelda gear for sale is as bizarre as that, though. There are also some genuinely cool Zelda accessories for sale, like the variations of Link’s distinctive hat for sale at this online shop.
What would happen if you took Zelda, and then mixed in elements of Metal Gear Solid, Final Fantasy, and The Sims? The Hidden Triforce took a deeper look into a various possibilities and then wrote an article based on them.
There have been a lot of Spirit Tracks screenshots pouring in lately, but they just don’t compare to actual video footage. Luckily, we now have exactly that – the Japanese Spirit Tracks website has provided us with three minutes of excerpts from the game.
We have been seeing a lot of characters who look similar to characters from The Wind Waker/Phantom Hourglass, presumably because they are descendants, but now art has surfaced of what appears to be an old face from Wind Waker, though a much older face than before thanks to the time gap.
We now have some more official artwork, which shows some characters that were unable to see completely in the trailer, and even one character that we’ve never seen before.
The recent Nintendo Power revealed some new information on Spirit Tracks. They may be small tidbits, but they are information nonetheless.
We now have footage of the way the Spirit Pipes are played, this time thanks to the Greek version of the Spirit Tracks website. Every official Spirit Tracks website seems to have something different to offer.
