At Japan Expo this week, GameReactor caught up with Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma. The discussion included talk about Breath of the Wild and Zelda in general.
Regarding Breath of the Wild, Aonuma reflected on the game’s reaction and those who say that the final boss was too easy. He also spoke in (very) vague terms about the next main Zelda – wanting to include HD Rumble, but it’s a long way off. Also, Aonuma basically said that Link is ambidextrous.
We’ve included what we feel are the more notable comments from Aonuma below. The full interview is on GameReactor here.

The anticipated Castlevania animated series debuted on Netflix today. Despite that, a second season has already been confirmed.
For the first season, Castlevania only had four episodes. The next season will doubt that to eight.
Frederator Studios will be back on board to handle animation. Aside from that, not much is known, but that’s hardly surprising.
Below are a couple of videos for the first season:

Anyone who’s made it through the ARMS Grand Prix will know that this is the one and only Max Brass, head honcho of the ARMS League and reignihttp://nintendoeverything.com/wp-admin/themes.phpng champ! When Max Brass charges up, he can pump up his beefy body to maximum buffness – so much so that he barely feels punches!
