Although it seemed almost completely certain that The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword wouldn’t arrive in the first-half of 2011, there’s another reason to believe that it simply won’t happen. Reggie Fils-Aime told Kotaku that more information will be shared about the title at E3. Also, because Nintendo announced a June release for Ocarina of Time 3D, there’s no way that the company would ship another Zelda game so close. I’m willing to bet that we won’t be seeing Skyward Sword until the holiday season at this point.

This information comes from a Eurocom representative…

“Yes, immensely satisfied. We’re really happy that it’s reviewed well and that the public is continuing to enjoy playing it online. We’re satisified with the sales as we’re tracking very well.”

I’m very happy for GoldenEye, mainly because I was extremely surprised by the solid single-player adventure. It’s nice to see a third-party game succeed on Wii which received a generally favorable reception from critics, was marketed, and sold well in the end.

Upcoming Nintendo 3DS System Will Expand the World of Nintendo Entertainment

SAN FRANCISCO, March 2, 2011 – A new 3D game from Nintendo’s iconic Super Mario series is in the works for the Nintendo 3DS™ portable system. Nintendo also announced two upcoming collaborations: Nintendo 3DS owners will be able to connect automatically to the Internet at more than 10,000 AT&T Wi-Fi Hot Spots, while Netflix members will instantly stream movies and other content on their Nintendo 3DS systems. These features were announced today at the Game Developers Conference during Nintendo President Satoru Iwata’s keynote address, titled “Video Games Turn 25: A Historical Perspective and Vision for the Future.”

During his speech, Iwata said Nintendo 3DS gives developers new tools to create games and experiences never before possible while enabling them to reach the public in new ways.


Update: We’ve also added the Zelda: Skyward Sword trailer from Nintendo’s GDC keynote yesterday. You can view it right here. Additionally, we’ve added a comparison shot for one of the images – it shows quite a big improvement.


“The video came on, showed Link in a new trailer, and…then they yanked it. Now we know we’re at least getting a new Skyward Sword trailer.”

Okay, now I’m satisfied! The trailer should pop up on Nintendo’s stream before the hour is over…
