Aonuma will “say more” about Zelda Wii U at E3 2014, talks overworld openness
A few months ago, Eiji Aonuma stated that Nintendo was considering showing Zelda Wii U at this year’s E3. It now sounds like we’ll be waiting for next year’s expo for a look at the new title.
When Mashable asked if Aonuma could say anything about Zelda Wii U, Aonuma replied: “I’ll say more at E3 2014.”
Aonuma’s comment was part of a larger interview about A Link Between Worlds and the series in general. He shared some rather interesting comments when it comes to openness in Zelda’s overworlds:
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker was originally one of the most controversial Zelda games, at least from a visual perspective. The title’s initial reveal was less than smooth with fans wondering where Nintendo could be taking the franchise after showing the game’s “cartoony” graphics in a debut trailer at Space World 2001.
Following Wind Waker’s launch, a contingent of fans still downplayed the cel-shaded look. However, you could say that the public opinion has changed over the last decade. Wind Waker as a whole – including its timeless visuals – are now remembered much more fondly.
In an interview with Shacknews, Eiji Aonuma spoke about the turnaround in reception:
I must be a terrible 3DS owner. This video reminded me how I just received my first StreetPass hit last week…
