Apparantly there's a huge chance it'll be out before May 22nd in Japan. Purely speculation, I'm guessing, but if its true surely this would mean 2005 without failure in Europe, which is very assuring to know.

Thing is, I was expecting it to be the main E3 attraction, then launched maybe two months later in Japan, 3 months for the US, and around Christmas for Europe.

Only time will tell, I guess...

That's too soon.

If it isn't OOT in terms of length and dungeon count, I won't be best pleased.

Un;ess of course they've been working on it since they released the Wind Waker (seeing as they haven't done anything else), and it was released in Japan 02, so that's 3 and a half years of develpoment.

Maybe.

But they've had to do completely new graphics and stuff, as unlike MM was to OOT it looks completely different.

Well, when have you played a bad Zelda game?
That's all I will say.

Well I haven't, but WW should have been a bit better than it was.

I want extra effort to make up for it.

We want all the best parts of MM, OoT, LttP and WW to come together, and form a really good game.

I think they can manage it.

It still uses the same engine though WS.

And remember Majora's Mask took 18 months to make as they started production after OOT...

Wind Waker was released in Japan in December 02 and it would be May 05... which is a solid 2 and a half years.

Although I am betting a worldwide Christmas release as a bye bye Gamecube sorta thing. Especially as it's grand playable unveiling is to be set at E3 next year.
