Click here to check out some screens from it.

Who's as stoked about this as I am?

I am really dissapointed with the graphics of the game. But, I am sure it will be fun. I think they should have stuck with a style cell shading. Wich if done proporly, you can give a older feel.

How sweet!

Looks great so far! When's it coming out?

I liked the cel shading too, but hey... it's Zelda. I've been a Zelda nut since the first game. There's talk of a WindWaker 2 game that will be coming out for the Gamecube too... Unless this new Zelda game IS Windwaker 2... however, it was said that the sequel to WW would be Cel-shaded. I'm not really sure what's going on. There's not enough info at this time to make many assumptions.

Details are sketchy at this point. It's said the release date for Japan is to be announced. The US usually gets games several months later. It's probably a bit down the road. I want to hazard a guess at mid-2005, but... maybe, maybe not.
It's not even known how much of the game they have done yet. Or what stage it's in (Beta, etc.).

........which is enough that I can't wait for it to come out. I'm probably looking forward to Halo 2 more, though. It pains me as a Nintendo fan to say that

 

[SpaceProg]

I'm speaking as a biased Zelda fan, but in my opinion, this new Zelda game has every possibility of handing Halo 2 a big "PwnZorD!" sign.

I've not had Zelda vibes like this since Ocarina of Time and Link to the Past.

I watched the little movie, but couldnt make out the title that shows at the end. Did anyone see it?

 

[MyDogYoshi]

Theres no subtitle for the game yet.

The movie on Nintendo.com isnt as good as the one shown at the Press Conference @ E3

Feast your eyes on this, my friends. You can't tell me these graphics aren't FAR better than that cel shaded garbage.

.... How dare you.

The cell shadding was such a interesting, and colourfull affect. And it was well suited to the game. Zelda has always been fun, and playfull, and Cell shadding really expresssed that. I am sorry you couldn't see the fun in it.

While Wind Waker was fun, this Zelda is using the same Wind Waker engine, just tweaked a bit.

Link's still going to use the same emotions when seeing enemies, his eyes will still blink and look towards enemies, and he'll still have facial expressions.

The mood is just darker and I'm hoping the story is longer and more intricate than ever before.

This Zelda is using 100% of the GCN's power!

I liked wind waker but this is going to be awesome! Oh I can't wait!! I don't think there a date on when it is coming out yet but some where in 2005!

now wait a sec, wind waker was quite fun and the graphics may not have been the best but this was still an awesome Zelda game. I think they did the cel shading because they had to one: keep the Zelda fans occupied, two: they needed more money to make this new one so, they did wind waker. This how I saw it. So don't knock the cel shading!

No worries, its all based on opinion, I didn't care for WW, not because of the graphics, but because it wasn't land based, but Hyrule Adventure(LOVE the graphics) the the upcoming un-named Zelda seemed to have plenty of that
