Aonuma always thinks he’s making his last Zelda game, but ends up wanting to make another one in pursuit of perfection

Eiji Aonuma has been heavily involved with The Legend of Zelda since Ocarina of Time. Given how he’s played a major role in the series for over 15 years, it’s only natural that thoughts crop up about moving on. There’s one major element that keeps Aonuma going, however: the pursuit of perfection.
Aonuma admitted to GamesTM in its previous issue, “I always make these games with the thought that this is going to be my last.” But he ends up having regrets and wishing certain things could have been implemented, which motivates him to work on another Zelda title.
“I guess that could come to a close if I finally make a perfect game,” Aonuma said, “but perhaps I would not be able to create such a thing even if I spent my whole life on it.” Aonuma understands that he’ll one day have to stop making Zelda games, so before that happens, he “really would like to create something as close to perfection as possible not too far into the future” and “retire with no regrets.”

Call of Duty: Ghosts contains a Zelda reference

Believe it or not, Call of Duty: Ghosts houses a reference to The Legend of Zelda. A trophy, which seems shaped like a ruppee, contains the words “Awarded for most bushes cut and pots smashed.” Pretty neat!

Update: Here’s another image…

An early version of the boxart for The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds showed a Nintendo Network logo. However, the final product has now arrived, and it comes without the image. I suppose that means A Link Between Worlds won’t have Nintendo Network connectivity after all!
IGN’s Jose Otero passed along the boxart update a short while ago:
I guess the Nintendo Network logo on the early packaging for Zelda:ALBW was a mistake. pic.twitter.com/cCLANVTjA1

This neat video popped up on the eShop. Didn’t see it elsewhere, so I figured I’d go ahead and upload it. You can watch Eiji Aonuma himself transform into a drawing… and run around New York!
