When Will The Next Zelda Game Be Announced?

A simple speculation thread of when you think that the upcoming Zelda game will be announced. Also, on this first post I will try to post things that might favor a date when it might be coming out.

-Zelda games are usually announced at e3 gameshows
-It is confirmed that the next Zelda game will be "different" from others
-July's issue of NP states that they will have a surprise next month for hardcore gamer's
-Most Zelda games take a long time to make (2-6 years)

Re: When Will The Next Zelda Game Be Announced?

July 2- July 18 b/c that's E3 and ur right about Zelda games being released near E3. But how can the next Zelda differ from the others b/c we've had Zelda cel-shaded then made dark and hopeless so what's left?

Re: When Will The Next Zelda Game Be Announced?

i heard something that the creater of Zelda said. He said that Twilight Princess "Was the last of its kind" or something like that. Maybe they'll go back to cel shading. Hopefully theyll bring back Ganondorf, thats what i'm hoping. But they should announce it around E3

Re: When Will The Next Zelda Game Be Announced?

I hope there is one announced at E3, Not getting my hopes up though. And when Eiji said that Twilight Princess was the last of its kind, hes most likely refering to the way the game is played, controls etc, not graphics, Twilight Princess's were successful, and a lot better than the cel shaded crap of Wind Waker.

Re: When Will The Next Zelda Game Be Announced?

I really believe that E3 is where the next Zelda announcement is. Nintendo's moneymakers are its game systems, Zelda, Mario, and Pokemon (in that order). After that come their other games, which aren't really that BIG. The Wii and DS are here, and it seems Nintendo is going to have them stick around for a while. Nintendo only releases one major Mario game per system, and Super Mario Galaxy is already out. Pokemon Platinum has already been revealed, and is going to be announced on their site soon, I think.
The only logical choice left is either:
A. a Starfox, Metroid, or similar game; which isn't that big
B. Zelda

B seems more likely.

Re: When Will The Next Zelda Game Be Announced?

Isn't the Tokyo Game Show in September? I'm not too sure, but I voted for the month of September anyway.

Didn't e3 lose priority? It's not as big as it used to be, and I see quite more info revealed at the Tokyo Game Show. I have a hunch that the next Zelda title will be revealed this September/ whatever month TKS is.

Also, I read the interview where Miyamoto (?) said TP was the last Zelda game of it's kind. I've been looking for a credible source with that interview, but I can't find it, and I forgot where I read it! Sorry for going off topic, but can someone provide a credible source with the interview?

Re: When Will The Next Zelda Game Be Announced?

hmm...I wonder what it will be about? Maybe Ganon has created a dark link and has sent him into Hyrule frome the seal hes locked in. He wants to get revenge on Link so dark Link sets out on revenge of Link. That would be cool but I wonder what Mayamoto(sp?) meant by "TP will be the last Zelda game of it's kind" Maybe you wont be Link anymore but you play as someone else. I think it will be around E3

Re: When Will The Next Zelda Game Be Announced?

There are rumors of a futuristic Zelda in development on youtube. Please tell me if this is true or not, someone.

Re: When Will The Next Zelda Game Be Announced?

I don't mind if it's cel-shaded though I'd still prefer less super deformed character models if they do.

And the Futuristic Zelda was an April Fools Joke from last year. The predecessor to this year's Zelda Movie Trailer released by IGN.

Re: When Will The Next Zelda Game Be Announced?

That's pretty unlikely unless it's something like the Four Swords franchise although with the Wii's online capabilities, they could make a 3D Four Swords game.

I dout that would happen. Nobody likes 2-D games anymore except people who love old-school games. Im not against 2-D games or anything but people in this technological era like 3-D graphics way better. It feels more realistic.

Re: When Will The Next Zelda Game Be Announced?

People today like 2D gaming if it's a casual game. If it has a hardcore storyline then it is better off 3D

Re: When Will The Next Zelda Game Be Announced?

I don't mind if they have no news on another Zelda game for two years or so. Time of it's development means that it will be one great game.

So I wouldn't want them to rush at all. Give them the time to make it yet another massive Zelda game.

Fake. You're probably refering to the lame video with some nice futuristic art in which a guy is doing a voice-over, saying stuff like "We've seen the new Zelda and it's spectacular. It's going to have a futuristic theme and a brand new style".. etc.

I've tried to find it myself but no luck. Maybe IGN has it, haven't searched their massive article maze yet.

Anyway, I remember the quote and I believe it was published way before TP for Wii was announced/planned. My guess is that they were simply referring to the controls.
