New Twilight Princess information released!

A German magazine has released new details regarding Twilight Princess. Thanks to the power of the Internet and multi-linguists, the information has been translated and made available:

(Yes, I know that some of this information is old, but it is very cool so it couldn't be left out!)
  • The game is 70 hours long, including all sidequests, according to Eiji Aonuma
  • Link is right-handed in the Wii version
  • Link is left-handed in the GCN version
  • The game has at least as many "temples" as Ocarina of Time (which was 9)
  • They compare the sword of the Darknut to Phantom Ganon's sword in The Wind Waker
  • The game is after Ocarina of Time chronologically
  • There's an image which the magazine believes the "light spiral" near the waterfall is a portal to transform into the Wolf
  • Wolf Link can gain abilities as he progresses
  • Eiji calls the King of Red Lions in TWW a father figure to Link who kept him on the right track. TP won't have a father figure, but Link will have many friends in the game. There will be one grown-up girl that will be very helpful for him.
  • No Wii-connect24 or online support.
  • Epona in TP is faster than in OOT
  • The Gamecube version was nearly completed when they decided to put in the Wii controls
  • The transition from GC to the Wii control scheme was quite difficult and they changed it again recently. Now they can concentrate on fine tuning the game.
  • When Link becomes a wolf, his scent becomes keener so that he can find hidden things that he coulnd't find as normal Link.
  • Eiji vaguely hints that the Twilight Princess will be someone different from Zelda.
  • The mention of Biggoron refers to Biggoron's Sword only, which is similar in size to the Darknut's sword.
  • Link will have the horse at the beginning, but then when some accidents take place, the two are separated. Later on, Link will find the horse again, and then he can name it.
  • About Midna, Eiji says she won't be able to stop the Twilight Realm's progression on her own, so that's why Link is responsible to help her.
  • About Phantom Hourglass, Eiji says: "PH is often called a sequel of TWW - that's not fully correct, as it merely makes use of the same graphics style."
  • He also states that they didn't include any storyline-wise connection between TP and PH, because the games are so different.
  • The canoe will be used in other mini-games besides fishing.
