Ono teasing something bigger than Super Street Fighter IV
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 6 Comments
Yoshi Ono has worked on some significant titles in his career, including the recent release of Super Street Fighter IV. But apparently something bigger is on the way. Ono posted a brief, cryptic message on his Twitter account, about something that will soon be coming:
“Super SF4 on sale!! SuperSF4 is nothing compared to what’s coming!!”
That really isn’t much to guess on, though hopefully we’ll see some sort of announcement in the near future. There honestly isn’t a clue here at all. Though if it’s Nintendo related, you can bet we’ll let you know about it!

Aonuma: Surprising Zelda fans is Nintendo’s goal, trying to surpass Ocarina of Time memories, more
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Wii | 1 Comment
Aonuma talking about the story in Skyward Sword…
“Well, you saw the trailer this morning, and the presentation. The final scene is Link jumping off those cliffs and diving through the bank of clouds, and that’s a very key element behind the story in the Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. This time around, Link is living on a series of floating islands above the coulds, and that land is called Skyloft. Link lives in this floating land, and it’s his natural world, so he doesn’t think there’s anything strange about living above the clouds. One day, an incident occurs, and he discovers that beneath the clouds is another world, and that world is ruled by an evil force. And the thing that leads link on in his adventure and guides him is the titular sword – the Skyward Sword. When the sword is leading Link and helping him do things, it actually transforms into a human figure. [In] the artwork revealed at E3 last year, that was the figure that was in that artwork. So basically the story evolves in his travelling from Skyloft to the land below, and back and forth, as he is lead by the Skyward Sword. As he travels, the story of how the land below came to be ruled by these evil forces is revealed.”
