Was just thinking the same thing. The "trim designs" of the enemy, arrow, and Link all sort of remind me of the Lanayru Mining Facility dungeon in SS. I also wonder if the overall game aesthetic will be a sort of magic-steampunk design.

Sort of related to this...not sure how many people did this, but if you go see Mother Maiamai after getting all 100 babies but before going to Lorule Castle, she will actually transport to "another dimension" along with 99 of her babies (one decides to stay behind and become the next mother)...

I like all your thoughts, and I agree that the series needs to be tossed on its head. I'm sure you'll get some people that say without that stuff then you don't have a Zelda game....but for me, a Zelda game can be many different things and is whatever you make it (the first 4 games in the...

I agree with this. Nintendo needs to maximize the WiiU's capability and really show off what it can do, and in order to maximize this they need to do it on one of their largest and most popular platforms. I know Aunoma and Miyamoto are always putting gameplay #1, but if they desire to propel...

Maybe near the end of the game we'll get a reveal showing that Ravio is actually the true name and identity of the Happy Mask Salesman. And maybe in this timeline he gave up on his mask collecting/selling, and instead started focusing on items/weapons.

Here is a previous example of Nate Bihldorff posting on a message board to fans with information....I highlighted a couple of points. First, why not just use the same username as before for consistency. Second, he specifically stated it is their policy to not post in message boards. Third...

One of my favorite characters of all time, and I would love an HD Happy Mask Salesman. Not sure if he should be a main NPC or not, but a part of me would like to see an aged HMS (if the game happens to fall between MM and TP). I imagine walking into a old rundown cottage, and as you enter you...

I'm confused about your post. Are you just rewriting previous rumors found elsewhere, or are you trying to imply that you are somehow "in the know"? Some of the stuff you posted sounds similar to previous rumors, but some of the stuff is new. So, do you have some credentials you would like to...

I agree that it would be interesting to see Dark Link in this game. I actually started a thread a few weeks ago discussing an idea I had, which included battling a "Dark Link" at the end of the game, but coming to discover that the Dark Link was actually the counterpart of Link from A Link to...

Clever to have the shop owner dressed up like a Pink Bunny. Probably more of an easter egg (no pun intended) towards ALttP, but would be interesting if there may be more backstory and importance to his appearance.

So with there now being actual gameplay footage proving that ALBW is set after ALttP (see 1:55 mark in the video), where do you stand with your theory, Vita? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czdtV79yVlc

Thank you for your input, Vita. However, one thing I want to make clear is this is NOT a theory into what I think the story will be for ALBW. I have no idea what the story will be. I just thought this might be an interesting storyline to connect the two games together and provide a new type...

Just had an idea for the main villain of this game that I would really enjoy seeing, would be different, and would be a very interesting story that could also incorporate ALttP. So, I was interested in getting the opinions of others and hear what you thought of the idea. To start....the game...

I'd like to see something like the Skull Woods dungeon from A Link to the Past, where the dungeon is effectively integrated into the overworld. Skull Woods did it to a small degree with having to go in and out of the dungeon, creating a maze-like environment, and having to maneuver around the...

The hardest dungeon may actually be the ninth and final dungeon (Death Mountain) from the original Legend of Zelda. First, its huge (for that game), and its such a maze that it is extremely difficult to navigate and remember which passages led where. On top of that you could find yourself get...

Well, that specific house is a sword training house. Same as the Swordsman's School in Majora's Mask, or Orca's house in Wind Waker. So, you still may not be able to use a sword anywhere you please.

I was looking through the new screenshots posted by IGN, and I noticed the family crest of the slender male with white hair that we've seen in the various trailers and such. His crest appears to be a tree. We obviously haven't seen the crests of every character, but this ones seems different...

Extremely similar to the first Lizalfos fight in Ocarina of Time. Fire-related temple, hexagonal platforms separated by lava, and two Lizalfos at the same time.

Was just about to post this. Awesome stuff! Notice at the point when the water colors form the picture of a Goddess with the harp/lyre we see some figures behind her. Well, one of the figures is obviously a Goron, a Mogma, and one of those penguin-things that pop up from the ground. This...

Zelda Informer included a thought that maybe the "Master" could be related to the Fused Shadow. They were referring to the giant behemoth that Midna becomes once she gains all of the parts of the Fused Shadow at the end of TP. Maybe their is some sort of beast that lives inside the Fused...

I started a thread yesterday about the 2nd "Whale" that you mention, and I'm fairly certain that this whale is the Skyward Sword version of the EyeFish/SkyWhale from Phantom Hourglass. See the link below for my explanation: http://zeldadungeon.net/forum/showthread.php?23550-Flying-Whale-in-SS

I know there has been recent discussion that the Flying Whale seen in the recent SS gameplay footage may be the Windfish. However, the general feel of that scene seems to indicate that Link is involved in some form of boss battle. If that is true, then it's hard to conclude that you would be...

Seems to resemble the statue in the background of the picture below. So it may just be pieces of a broken sculpture. If it is a creature, then it is some form of dragon creature with it's head on the righthand side.

I posted this same observation in the screenshot thread (see link below). http://zeldadungeon.net/forum/showthread.php?23235-SS-Screen-Gallery! However, I'm not 100% sold that it is Volvagia. It's slightly more likely it is just a design feature that fits the fire dungeon "motif". I...

Some thoughts and things to note about new screenshots: - Seems like there is at least one human-like inhabitant living alongside Eldin Volcano (3rd image, top row). Not sure if this could be a sign of a much larger "village" or not, but at first glance it brings back memories of Pamela and...

Couple of thoughts about what it may be (I do not believe it is an entrance to a temple/dungeon): 1. Entrance to a cave that contains a special item (may be a part of a sidequest) 2. Entrance to a Fairy Fountain 3. A tunnel/shortcut to another area of the overworld (connection between...

One thing that I'm kind of scared of, now that we've seen more video, is that these overworld sections (outside Skyloft) might not be connected below the clouds and the only way to get from one section to another is by going back above the clouds. There is not a lot right now to base that...

That is the very first thing I noticed. It's the EXACT same sound as those monkeys.

We've been hearing for awhile now how the overworld and temples were going to be much more intertwined and connected (making it harder to distinction between the two). Well, from what I can tell, one way in which the developers are visualizing this idea within the game is that it seems like...

Just curious...why do you believe that the inclusion of a Sheikah means the absence of the Dark Interlopers?

I agree with you about the Dark Interlopers, and I'm almost sure of it now that the TP backstory is what we will be seeing as the storyline for this game. With that said, I don't think the SS object/emblem is the Mirror of Twilight. I've thought about that same theory as well, and to me it...

For some reason I don't believe the 4 item box at the bottom will be Boss Collection box. First, I honestly think there will be more then 4 bosses in the game (although that is only a feeling and can't be proven at this time). Second, the 2nd item looks like an outline for a treasure chest...

The item that the OP was talking about is not the Gust Jar that we see in the new gameplay footage. Still most likely some kind of magnetic item. Look back at the gameplay footage from today and you'll see that the image on the top of the HUD is different.

She's been referred to as a "Servant of the Goddess", which doesn't necessarily mean Royalty, but definitely sounds like Clergy....which would still require some level of respect, I believe. So I honestly think the scene you are referring to is simply Link being courteous and respectful...

That could definitely be true. The only reason why I called it a Gust Gun was because during the video it seemed like the "fluid" coming from the gun quickly evaporated away. If it was a water cannon type thing I would imagine that there would be water lingering on the ground. But it's still...

No, I'm just referring to items that we found out about today. Things like the Beetle, Slingshot, Whip, etc we've known about for awhile now.

Red Iron Shield? I saw the others, but I missed that one....which video is that one in?

Well...I wanted to just edit my original post, but for some reason the system is not allowing that to happen. So I'm being forced to start a new post: EDITS: Added Bomb Bag and changed/edited name of Sailcloth NEW ITEMS: - Upgraded/intermediate Shields (Banded Shield and others not...

Help me out guys and gals. I wanted to try a make a list of all the new items that have been revealed today. Let me know what I missed. - Upgraded/intermediate Shields (Banded Shield and others not named yet) - Double Claw/Hookshot - "Gust" Gun (seems like something similar to the Gust...

I can definitely see what some of the previous posters have stated....essentially, the assumption had always been that the shield design had been inspired by the royal crest. However, it's very possible that the shield was what actually inspired the royal crest. Although, another explanation...

Posted this in another thread, but wanted to get it in here also for all opinions. Seems like there is some discussion of the outermost symbols and the possibility of them representing dungeons, and so I did some quick analysis of those outer symbols on the box. Honestly, I could find very...

I think I agree with you. 12 seems like a little much for how the gameplay has been described up to this point. However...I did some quick analysis of those outer symbols on the box and the possibilities of them representing dungeons. Honestly, I could find very few data points and very...

Yes, you're exactly right. An "assumption" is by definition a statement(s) used as a premise for a specific argument but may not othewise be accepted. So, it is merely one opinion in the long list of Zelda timeline opinions. But I'm pretty sure that there is no official "side timeline". The...

This may or may not be the right way to look at it, but the way I have always viewed the Ganondorf/Ganon aspect of the timeline was to make the following assumptions: 1) Ganondorf can be killed by the Master Sword 2) Ganon and Ganondorf are separate entities, and Ganon can live-on even after...

You can see my timeline in my sig, but essentially I've placed the "Vaati Trilogy" on it's own separate timeline. Basically out of necessity and lack of clear connection with the rest of the games. You can basically think of the Vaati timeline as a parallel universe with all the same people...

I honestly think it is a little simpler than that, and this specific Goron is simply the Skyward Sword version of the Goron Traveling Merchant that we see in Wind Waker and The Minish Cap (see images below). With the pack on his back, I really think he'll just be a character you purchase or...

Not sure about Triforce issue, but with respect to Ganondorf there are 2 possibilities I see: 1) He never actually died in TP (how? not sure), or 2) The Ganondorf in ALttP is a different person, then the OoT, TP, and WW Ganondorf....maybe he's the next Gerudo male after that Ganondorf and simply...

I agree with this part of your statement, JJ. I think early on Nintendo cared very little about maintaining a consistent timeline, but probably around the time after OoT and MM I think they (mainly Aonuma) started really taking it to heart that the fans really liked this idea of having a...

That kind of goes back to my original theory based on the OP's question...(we come full circle, finally). The fact that the MS is in Hyrule Castle in WW is actually the original thing that developed my child timeline Temple of Time rebuild idea. My thought was that the reason the ToT is in...

I looked at the ZD textdump from the game, and from what I can tell "Hyrule Castle" is only stated one time in the following quote: This direct quote seems to indicate that Hyrule Castle and Ganon's Tower are two separate things (with Hyrule Castle being "outside" of Ganon's Tower and across...
