Well at E3 Shigeru Miyamoto one of the greatest game producer and designer in the whole industry, made an announcement that there will be a new zelda game coming for the wii at 2010. Here is the pic that he showed (only a concept art of the game):

Will Link be, as Mr. Miyamoto pointed out regarding this image, without his trusty Master Sword? Perhaps not. Eagle-eyed Zelda fans have noticed that while Link himself is not carrying a sword in his hand in the picture, the ethereal female creature joining him in the images bears a remarkable resemblance to the classic Master Sword design. Below is a close-up collage of Link from Twilight Princess and Four Swords Adventures to compare the similarities

Where is the master sword ?

If the rumors are right on the connections being made, we now face even more questions than ever before: if Link has no sword and this fairy-like creature joining him us a substitute for the Master Sword, how could this possibly work in the intense battles that Link will surely face in his new quest? Is it possible that the next Zelda will not have traditional sword battles at all and instead this girl will somehow act as your offensive force? Or will she instead be a personification of the Master Sword, something that changes into a blade at will? Will she talk to Link on his journey, or are her eyes closed for a reason? And this being the first Zelda game made specifically and exclusively for the Wii, what could it be about a "living sword" that might inspire Nintendo to choose such an approach for taking full advantage of the Wii's motion controls?

So what do you guys think about the pic and the rumors?Link to the quotes and info http://wii.ign.com/a...2/992063p1.html

since when did link have around shield (idk it looks round to me)also, i think maybe the girl (which kinda looks like a zora from the previous game) has force based powers, but needs link to use it in order to work (psychic cutting perhaps?)

Meh, Zelda games have not been spectacular the last few years but they keep a quality margin. That's the good thing about Zelda games, they have always been a safe bet (except with the Nintendo CD system). Regarding the new Zelda game, I just hope it overcomes Twilight Princess because we all expected Twilight to be even better than OoT and just was enjoyable but not as memorable.As far as I know, the only game that will define if I will keep my faith on the new gaming is Final Fantasy XIII.

I still say the shield is round and has peculiar reasons for it............. . .OMG!!! Its a Master Shield!!!
