Nintendo initially planned to launch The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword last year. However, the company announced at E3 2010 that more development time was needed and the game was pushed back.

In the latest edition of Iwata Asks, Shigeru Miyamoto said that they technically could have shipped Skyward Sword last year, but Nintendo “probably would have put a half-finished product on sale”.

“If we’d only been thinking about what was most convenient for the company when we made this new game The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, we probably would have put a half-finished product on sale last Christmas by saying that we have managed to make it on time just because it was the order from the company

“We spent six months making the game, and another six months fine-tuning it. Because the game we were making was so huge, we needed to work that hard on it. Otherwise it would have felt like a waste. We spent so much time making a really good game and it came out so well that it would have been a waste not to make sure that it was really polished.”

Iwata also commented on the situation:

“If I had said last Christmas, ‘We need something to be our big end of the year product. Make a new Legend of Zelda game,’ you would have made some sort of game. Because you would have spent as much time as you had and put in as much energy as you could to make it.”

There’s a well-known character in the Zelda franchise who makes an appearance in Skyward Sword. However, the character isn’t actually in the game… it’s more of an Easter egg I suppose! Have I confused you yet?

All of this vagueness is probably bugging you, so I’ll just stop talking now. You can find out who this mystery character is after the break.
