Breath of the Wild A Reveal on the 21st?

[Lozjam]

In a mere two weeks, it will be the official 30th Anniversary of The Legend of Zelda.
The question is, will they show anything off of Nintendo's most anticipated title?

I definitely would make sense, as Zelda Wii U takes inspiration from the original, and that there are many references to the the NES games in the series as well

Spoiler: Some References in Zelda U

It would also make sense regarding Twilight Princess HD's release as well. One of the ploys used to get it, is that Zelda U will be intertwined with TPHD, and that is connected through the Wolf Link Amiibo. They could very well use Zelda U to help advertise TPHD, in that you would get a better experience in Zelda U if you get TPHD. I think that would be quite smart.

Finally, what would be a better way of celebrating your own anniversary than showing off your highly anticipated game that claims to be the "Ultimate Zelda Experience"?

However, Nintendo has been utterly moronic about the advertising for this game. So, really, what do I know?

What do you guys think? Will we hear and see the new Zelda game within the next 2-3 weeks?

Uhm, the 25th anniversary already occurred...in 2011...I think you mean the 30th? lol

Yes....
Sigh......
I really meant the 30th Anniversary. I have absolutely no idea why I said 25th.

Considering how they have skipped so many opportunities to tell us anything at all I almost doubt it.

These days I expect an announcement for a totally new side game like Triforce Heroes than any tiny snippet of WiiU news.

 

[Salem]

I honestly think they'll wait until TP HD gets released before they talk about Zelda Wii U.

 

[Deleted member 81859]

Nothing.

Nothing will happen.

I'd wager a no, only because of Twilight Princess HD's upcoming release.

That being said, I know I've been rather salty about the lack of information on Zelda U, but I've been discussing it with a friend of mine and he said something that kind of made me think a little bit on my position. He says because Skyward Sword was so hyped and information was so overabundant that it was practically flying out Nintendo's front door each day, there was very little mystery and intrigue left in the game to be found. Not to mention the game itself has polarizing opinions -- you either loved it or you hated it.

So maybe they're keeping a tight lid on the game so we don't have a similar situation like we did with Skyward Sword. Or they may be saving all the information they have for a grand E3 reveal. Either way, I don't know; I only thing I do know is that my interest in the series has long since waned. Nintendo is going to have to work hard for me to open my wallet for the Zelda franchise again.

Watch them reveal TFH2.

But yeah that'd be awesome, but I doubt it. We probably wont see anything till E3.

I thought that Nintendo would hold off on Zelda news until the 30th anniversary to show off TPHD and Zelda U, but now that all of the news regarding TPHD have been shown off, I doubt that we'll get anything significant on the anniversary.

Showing off Zelda U would really only make sense in terms of how data from the amiibo transfers to Zelda U. Otherwise, Zelda U would simply take attention away from TPHD right before its release. So I'm not expecting much.

Getting this gif ready.

Zelda U will never be released.

Zelda U will never be released.

Disagree, TP HD will officially be the Zelda U released in 2016 while the open world game that's rumored to be in development will be for the NX.

 

[Spiritual Mask Salesman]

Zelda U will never be released.

You just anticipated the real reveal!

 

[HeroOfTermina]

Pfft. Half-Life 3 will be out before we hear anything more about this game.

 

[CrimsonCavalier]

Nope. I think Nintendo will keep the lid on things for a few reasons. Most everyone knows how I feel about Zelda NX, but suffice it to say I'm calling it Zelda NX and not Zelda U, until Nintendo slaps me in the face with box art and a release date, I won't believe we're getting Zelda U.
