judging from the screenshots, it looks really experimental
and quite a departure from the previous zelda games. I like
the addition of the basketball player.

the key to the new zelda is link's ability to make efficient
use of stairs.

Yes, sources say that 84% of the game is spent climbing
stairs. (It becomes easier later in the game whan you can
ride on Kee Kee the Monkey's back)

Do you have to get to the top of the stairs, then?

stair related algorythms.

Gannon is at the top of the stairs. He can only be slain
with the special sword you obtain just before fighting him.

I saw a demo of the bannister sliding physics - they put
something at the top of the bannister and then it slid down
to the bottom. It was very realistic, I actually thought it
was video footage at first.

Hyrule Times: Pre-E3 Edition
An ancient IGN tradition awakes.
by Peer Schneider
May 13, 2005 - Hyrule what? Yes, I know -- it's been a few
years since you've seen the name of this column grace the
front pages of an IGN site. But with Nintendo about to
unveil its latest adventure in the Legend of Zelda series,
it's time to once again bring back our 100% Zelda-dedicated
column. Enjoy.

Where were we?
It's been three years since Nintendo unveiled its last
Legend of Zelda game in playable form at the Electronic
Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles. The game, remembered as
the most controversial entry into the series since Nintendo
shook up the formula with Zelda II: The Adventure of Link,
initially garnered the same kind of attention an Uwe
Boll-directed Tango and Cash movie sequel starring Carrot
Top and Tingle would: stunned faces, anger, and disbelief.
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, with its cartoon-style
character design and cel-shaded worlds, was meant as a
return to the "good old days" -- when games didn't have to
sport hyper realistic visuals and a movie-like feel to suck
players in. Instead, many seasoned players took it as proof
that they had begun to outgrow the company that turned them
on to videogaming in the first place.
Some voices from inside Nintendo claim that Zelda creator
Shigeru Miyamoto asked "why are they not clapping?" when the
new Wind Waker look was met with stunned silence at the
initial unveiling. When you expect chocolate ice cream and
you bite into a scoop of liverwurst instead, "pleasant
surprise" are usually not the words that come to mind to
describe the experience (I say "usually," since I'm sure
there are some readers from the UK shaking their heads in
disagreement now). There's a time for liverwurst and there's
a time for chocolate. And GameCube gamers were in the mood
for something sweet.

Yep.

You well never walk up (or down) stairs in a video game the
same way again.

Still, Wind Waker was a success, both critically and
commercially. Fans who gave the game a chance quickly found
that it possessed the same great gameplay and impressive
visuals as Zeldas past. With around 1.9 million copies sold
in the US alone, Wind Waker has already surpassed Majora's
Mask as the second most-popular Zelda console game in recent
history. You can chalk that up to the power of the brand,
the amazing pre-order bonus offer at launch, an increasing
audience of younger GameCube owners, or the fact that gamers
couldn't help but fall in love with the game once they tried
it, but Wind Waker found an audience just like the titles
before it. But it never managed to generate the same kind of
excitement as the N64's The Ocarina of Time (3.5 million
units sold in the US) and -- take it from someone who has
covered Nintendo since the mid-'90s -- pre-release buzz was
oddly muted and occasionally even hostile. Perhaps it was
the vindication of the game's commercial success mixed with
a little bit of old-school stubbornness, but Nintendo stuck
to its guns and sprung another surprise on gamers: the 2D
multiplayer game Four Swords Adventures for GameCube
When the Four Swords Adventures debuted, response was much
more positive. Gamers and press said "oh, neat" and pondered
how much fun it would be to play Link to the Past with four
players. But when the game hit shelves, relatively few
gamers actually bought it. At just over 300,000 copies sold
in the US, Four Swords Adventures became the worst
performing Zelda title in the franchise's history (CDi games
not included). Whether it was planned as a small "filler"
game all along or expected to perform better, Four Swords
Adventures still made more than $15 million -- a nice chunk
of money considering the no doubt cheap development cost of
a game devoid of voice acting and complex visuals. But the
question has to be asked whether Four Swords Adventures
added anything to the brand, or further drove home the niche
appeal of many recent Nintendo GameCube games.

nintendo Fans Made Revolution Mock Up Video look this video [18.6 MB]

Yeah, I know what you're thinking already, "why in the world
are we posting this fan made piece of crap?" Well, when I
saw it posted at GameTrailers I thought the same thing, but
nonetheless I clicked the link cause I was intrigued. I must
say that what I saw was pretty damn cool. Now the actual
Revolution will be nowhere near like this video, but it is
still cool to see. Hit the link and the video will open for
you in Windows Media Player.

it is super cool!

Nintendo official claims that Rev is 2-3 times more powerful
than the Gamecube. The PS3 is 35 times more powerful than
the PS2, and the Xbox 360 about 15 times faster.

Ugh.

So long awesome, cinematic Zelda on Revolution.
