Eiji Aonuma on the significant of Skyward Sword’s title and how it relates to the original piece of artwork…

“Did you happen to watch the trailer? That last scene where Link dives off the big cliff and goes flying through the clouds is a key hint as to the connection between the game and the Skyward Sword title.

Link lives on Skyloft, a series of floating islands that are above the clouds. He’s a normal kid living up on these islands above the clouds, but then an incident occurs and Link is forced to travel to the land beneath the clouds. This other world below the clouds has been captured and is being ruled by evil forces. So he has to go down there and start his adventure. The juxtapositon between the two worlds is very important.

What leads Link on this adventure is the Skyward Sword and when that Sword is actively guiding Link, it actually transforms into a feminine figure. I wouldn’t say that it’s female per se but it’s a feminine figure.”

This information comes from Scott Pilgrim Vs The World game designer Jonathan Lavigne…

“If consumers are willing to embrace new technology then for sure we’ll see a new batch of consoles, but we’re more likely to see that in the form of peripherals like Kinect on Xbox 360 and Move on PS3 rather in a whole new console. We’ll probably see Nintendo have the first real new console because they’ve really lasted a long time on refurbished Gamecubes with the Wii.”

It’s very possible that we’ll see Nintendo introduce their next home console before other companies. However, I don’t think we’ll see it until 2012 at the earliest. Next year Nintendo will be concentrating most of their efforts on the 3DS.

The information below comes from an Iwata Asks interview about Metroid: Other M. At the moment, this particular part of the interview is in Japanese only, but a few details have been extracted from the discussion…

– On a dual-layered disc
– Mostly because of cutscenes
– Team barely squeezed in all content even with the dual-layered disc
– Seconds were taken off cutscenes to fit all of the data on the disc
– Purple Gravity Suit may not be in the game
– Team Ninja thought Samus would go through her usual color changes as she changed suits
– Yoshio Sakamoto felt the purple theme for the Gravity Suit looked odd/out of place during serious events near the end of the game
– Sakamoto asked the dev team to get rid of the look and find a different way of letting players know that the Gravity upgrades are equipped:

– No purple add-ons to the Varia Suit
– Lights on the chest glow purple instead
