Zelda to be Perfect


Shigeru Miyamoto and his team at Nintendo have been working on the newest Zelda adventure, Twilight Princess, for over two years. Nintendo has teased fans with trailers, screenshots, and then disappointed fans with delays. But Miyamoto says all the delays are helping make Zelda "perfect."

"Zelda is a project with a huge volume of people and complex game development procedures," said Miyamoto, speaking with Official Nintendo Magazine. "As soon as we decided to postpone the game from last year to this year and make the perfect Zelda, all the team were delighted to have the time to work on many ideas."

Nintendo has said the delays are not a result of development problems or from converting Twilight Princess to a Revolution-only title, but to add content and improve the game. Nintendo has yet to set an official release date, but it is expected the game will launch sometime in November, possibly coinciding with the launch of the Revolution. As we all know, this game could not come fast enough for the legion of Zelda fans. We have been waiting for this one like the second coming. As much as it pains me to say this, it makes a lot of sense to launch it right around the Revolution launch period. By doing this, Nintendo will have a ton of their big name franchises right form the start. November seems so far away.....

E3 and GDC are right around the corner. Keep it here for updates! GAME ON!
