German website Nintendo-Online.de has published an article analyzing the development teams of the Zelda series over the past 28 years.

Nintendo has been sending out an email to Japanese Club Nintendo members, which contains a lovely piece of art to celebrate the Hanabi festival. It’s a Zelda-centric piece featuring Link and Majora’s Mask. I wouldn’t say this hints at a Majora’s Mask remake as some have speculated, but it’s nice to look at in any case!
