    Vined, Mossy Motif on Title Screen (NEW!)

    I noticed that the title screen for SS has changed for the new trailer: it is overgrown with vines and moss (maybe just vines) and the triforce and eagle design have changed from gold to an ancient stone material... NEW OLD What does this mean? Not sure if somebody already noticed...

    Skyward Sword & "Hard Core" Gamers

    The Wii has had a lot of trouble with the so-called "hard core gamers"...the XBox 360, PS3 owning crowd who obsess over Call of Duty, who adore Red Dead, who drool over Uncharted, etc., etc....will Zelda SS appeal to them? I know it will be a great game, but will it be universally great...

    Things That Could Hurt the Game--most Likely?

    What are the ONE OR TWO things that you think are most risky to ruin or just hurt the quality of the game?? (this was supposed to be a poll...but it did not work...here are some ideas) 1 - Same old, same old...too much like past games 2 - Lousy story 3 - Graphical/technological inferiority of...

    Seasons?

    OoT introduced a day/night cycle into the Zelda series to great effect...there was also weather, albeit a bit limited... What do you all think of the idea of having full-on seasons in Skyward Sword? In spring flowers would bloom and squirrels and birds (and Zora) would chase their mates...

    Activities and Hobbies in SS?

    What ideas do you have for side-games, special activities, and hobbies that might be in SS? I listed some that seem likely or have been done before...

    Final Dungeon?

    I think that the answer to this poll/question is OBVIOUS (but we'll see)...I post this mostly to spark conversation...

    Traditional Item (Not Yet Confirmed) That You Most Want?

    What as yet unconfirmed item do you most want to be in Skyward Sword? I tried to list the more typical items in this list. For the entire category of "magic" I am just putting magic wand (fire or ice rod). I know many of you will want to pick more than one...but I thought it was silly to have...

    Sword's "Treasure-Seeking Ability"?

    This is from an Nintendo Power interview with Eiji Aonuma: What does Aonuma mean? ...is it going to act like a metal detector of some sort? Like, if you wave it over something where there is a secret it will vibrate or glow or something...

    Chances That SS Will Be Ranked #1 of All Time?

    So, three Nintendo games top the list of the all time highest ranked games: #1 - Ocarina of Time (97.48%) #2 - Super Mario Galaxy (97.46%) #3 - Super Mario Galaxy 2 (97.07%) Will Skyward Sword be the top ranked game of all time when it comes out? What do you think it's chances of being...

    Is Link Too Pretty? Not Tough Looking Enough?

    At first I thought Link looked too girly...but now I am starting to warm to him. What do you think? I think if he was tougher looking it would be even better...

    Environments You Want in the Overworld?

    So, we know, almost certainly, that we will get the following "areas" or "environments" in the new Zelda, because they are in almost all of the games: Forrest Field Lake Mountain Snowy Desert Town We also have confirmed that there will be Skyloft, so that is another: Cloudland But what else...

    Classic Bosses You Hope Return?

    Obviously, we all hope there will be lots of new ones, but what classic bosses do you hope make a return in Skyward Sword? (Even as a mini-boss.) Are there any you don't want to see? *I know my list is quirky, list any you don't see that you would like to return*

    What races?

    I could not fit all the races I could think of in the poll here is the full list, with the ones I left out, because they were unlikely or uninteresting (imo), in red. *Please let me know of any I did not remember*. But comment on these if you disagree! Anouki Bulbin Cobble Deku Fairy Garo...

    Sequel to Skyward Sword?!l

    Yes, it is actually crazy to be asking this so soon, but I want to be the first on the web to do it! What are the chances that Nintendo will make a direct Sequel to Skyward Sword? Would you want it? I am thinking that since they are building a whole new engine and art style for this game...

    Princess Zelda's Role?

    Zelda has been confirmed for SS. What do you want her role to be? Remember, "LEGEND OF ZELDA" is the title of the series.

    Subscreen Menu With No Pause...

    What do you think of the fact that the game will not pause when you activate the sunscreen to select a menu? (Or to use a potion) I like it and think it will make the game flow faster. I do think they should make the circles underneath each item transparent or semi-transparent though...

    Detailed Trailer Review

    IGN Rewind Theater Check it out, they pick up on some things, and it's nice to see an in depth discusion.

    Water: Opaque (WW) or Transparent (TP)?

    So, what is water going to look like with this art style? Is it going to be opaque like it was in Wind Waker, or transparent like it has been in OoT and TP? I can't imagine that it would be completely opaque since it seems very likely that Link will be spending at least some part of the game...

    Worried About the Shield

    I know people seem to get sensitive when aspects of Skyward Sword are questioned, but I am worried about the shield. I don't have any good suggestions, but I have always found that the motion controls for the Nunchuk are only so-so. I am not sure that lifting the Nunchuk to raise the shield is...

    Eye Door + Sword Circle = Stupid

    Ok, I hate to gripe, because all-in-all, I am really excited for Skyward Sword, but, is it just me or is that thing they showed at E3 and in the trailer with the door with the eye on it that Link has to "confuse" by circling his sword around it really lame or what? It just seems like some...

    Where is Zelda? (As In, Princess)

    So, I know we only saw a few small bits of the game, but now that a day has gone by and a lot of people have talked to Miyamoto and Aonuma...what is happening with Zelda in this game? Nobody has been asking this. She must be there, she's the title character... What do you think? They have...

    Left-Handed Option? Should There Be One...

    IGN: In past Zelda games, people noticed that Link was obviously left-handed. And I know that all the Zelda games are stand-alones -- but in this particular game, will there be a lefty option for left-handed people? Aonuma: It's interesting because people say "all you have to do is switch it."...

    Confirmed Enemies of SS

    Here is what we have so far, correct me if I am missing anything: Deku Shrub Deku Baba Spiders Zol (or Gel) Scorpion mini-boss (Gohma?) Moblin (those pig guys are moblins, right?) Stalfos Keese Lava creature (looks like a snail living in lava...)

    Release Date?

    From what I saw, it seems like they have a long way to go. I am guessing summer 2011, around the time SMG 2 was released this year (so May). Thoughts?

    What If Link Were Mute?

    I know we have a thread on voice acting already, and a thread on "what if Link were not Caucasian", but what if Link were mute? Maybe Gannon could cast a spell on him at a young age, or maybe he would just have a disease...but in any case, he actually could not talk. In addition to being sort...

    How to Make Better Boss Battles?

    I don't mean what type of specific bosses, but rather how to make the battles themselves better. What are your ideas? Here are mine: Harder. I can't remember the last time I died fighting a boss in a Zelda game. That's just sad. Bosses in, say, AoL were really hard. Lately, I have...

    Format? Not Field-dungeon-field...

    There may be a thread on this already, but, anyway, with E3 and the Zelda reveal just days away, what do you expect the format of the game to be? We have been told it is not the same field-dungeon-field formula we are used to. Predictions?? Here is mine: dungeons will be replayable spaces...

    Gameplay or Cinematics

    What would you prefer more gameplay: bigger overworld, more dungeons, and sidequest, or more cinematics: voice acting and cut-scenes? In Super Mario Galaxy 2 it looks like all the story is being cut out. In Metroid: Other M they are going to have a lot of story and cut-scenes, a good amount of...

    Radio Silence? (No New Rumors)

    Why have there been no new leaks or rumors on Zelda Wii recently? :thinking: Around the end of last year and the beginning of this one there were little tid-bits coming out all the time, and now...radio silence. Why? And, has anyone heard or read anything new recently?

    Vitality Sensor?

    Do you think it would be cool if the vitality sensor was (somehow) used with Zelda Wii? Enemies could get harder as you get scared...or maybe in creepy areas it could play a sound in rhythm with your heartbeat...or, who knows??

    What Will the Surprises Be?

    Zelda Wii will be playable at E3. What will the *surprises* be? Within the next few months we will find out a lot more about Zelda Wii. I expect that we will even get some screenshots before E3. What things are going to be in it that we don't expect? Aonuma has said he does not want to...

    Would You Want a 3D Zelda?

    What graphical style do you want Zelda games to be in the future? I saw Avatar the other day and thought the movie itself (the story) was terrible, but thought it was a lot of fun to look at. I wouldn't want all Zelda's to be in 3D, but if they made some of them in that format in the future I...

    Jump Button?

    Will there be a jump button in the new Zelda? Do you want a Jump Button in Zelda Wii. My answers: I think there is a 51% chance that there will be a jump button. I definitely want it :wave: I think that the auto-jump was a good fit for OoT but has only been kept in out of tradition since...

    WII MOTION+, How Will It Be Used?

    Besides the obvious, how will Wii Motion+ be used in the new game? How could it be used? Ideas: 1. A whip or ball & chain item 2. A new instrument: Violin, Trupet, Drum 3. Magic wand (imagine if you could cast different spells by making different motions!!) 4. Flying (like the flying...
