Anyone seen the first pics of the new Zelda game yet?
No?
Go seek them out, I won't tell you where to look, you can make a game out of it or something.
Okay, have you looked now?
Good.
What did you think?
Looks very, very cartoony indeed, doesn't it?
How much can change in a year hey!
Remember last years Zelda video, featuring Link and Ganondorf fighting. It looked nothing like this at all!
One thought has entered my head, and I'll let you in on it, it's a bit messy, but that's the best you'll get!
Remember SNES Zelda, which featured two worlds, which you could cross between?
Remember Ocarina of Time, in which you could go to two different worlds as adult Link and young Link?
Remember Majora's Mask, in which you could take on different forms by wearing different masks?
Now what if the new Zelda game allows Link to play as an adult, as seen at last years Spaceworld, but also in this cartoon form that is being shown now?
Zelda games always seem to have something major like this, and the vast differnces between the graphical styles would be an extraordinary contrast, and a very odd gameplay experience!
But hey, maybe I'm wrong, maybe this game has taken on the role of an 'interactive cartoon'. I can't wait to see some videos to see what it looks like in-game, as the screenshots released so far aren't fo great quality, and you can't judge too much.
At the moment GAMECUBE Zelda is scheduled for an Xmas 2002 release in Japan, so we might see it in the summer of 2003!
Hopefully it will be worth the wait, and there's plenty of other games to keep us busy until then!

Anyway Mario and 1080 2 look rather good, can't wait for the Mario game.
I know what your saying it looks soooo crap from the screenshots, but trust me when you see it moving you realise how good it is. The only problem ive got with it is that Link looks like he hasn't been potty trained yet, but who cares since when have Nintendo leyt us have a crap Zelda game.
Watch the video clips cause the still pics make it look a bit cack, trust me you see it actually moving and you will fill your pants with joy (no literally i hope).
That sound like the old footage to me, check out the new stuff www.igncube.com
