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)

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.

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.
