Even though the studio has shared just one off-screen image thus far, comparisons have already been made to a well-known Xbox franchise.
The 3DS eShop title “will offer gameplay like a Gears of War game, so if you like Gears of War, IronFall is a game for you,” VD-Dev co-founder Fernando Velez says. But in order to keep things fresh, mini-games and other elements will be included.

Aonuma unsure if there will be more Zelda remakes, wants to see how Wind Waker HD does
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 1 Comment
Two Zelda remakes have come out since 2011. Ocarina of Time 3D hit the 3DS in 2011, and Wind Waker HD just launched a few weeks ago.
Nintendo’s apparent interest in remaking Zelda games brings about the question: could we see more of them in the future?
