Development of Zelda 3DS Going Well, Aonuma Says

Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma recently went onto the Zelda Miiverse community to discuss the recent announcement of The Legend of Zelda 3DS. In it, he talked about how development was progressing, the trailer available on the 3DS eShop, and how it was, contrary to some dissenters, a completely new game. In regards to how development was going, he said the following:

“Experience Hyrule reborn in a highly realistic three-dimensional world. A new story and fresh dungeon puzzles await you in this brand-new Zelda game! Development is progressing well, so expect to hear more about it soon!”

Not only that, but he also had other things to say in regards to Zelda 3D:

“In the latest Nintendo Direct, we announced an entirely new Zelda game for Nintendo 3DS, which takes place in the world of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past!”

“I’m sure those of you familiar with A Link to the Past could imagine what kind of game a sequel would be – but I think you’ll be surprised at quite how different it is when you actually play it!”

“Still, that’s difficult to convey just through an announcement, so we’re releasing a 3D video in the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS as well.”

So, what do you think about what he had to say? I am glad to hear that this is, at least by Aonuma’s word, a completely new game.
