End of an Era For Zelda

Posted by Zonk on from the no-more-hat dept.

Twilight Princess will represent the end of an era for Zelda games, according to Shigeru Miyamoto.From the Eurogamer article: "'This will be, without a doubt, the last Zelda game as you know it in its present form,' Miyamoto is quoted as saying. He declined to reveal any more details as to how the series will be reborn, but did go on to assure fans that Twilight Princess will be absolutely aces: 'Our goal was to make the best Zelda game ever. The most rich, satisfying and [melancholic]. I worked on it personally, moreso than Wind Waker. I haven't invested as much into any game as I have this one,' Miyamoto said."

    This is the man responsible for Mario, DK, and Zelda.

    And Metroid. And F-Zero. And Starfox. And Pikmin. And Earthbound - sweet, sweet Earthbound...

    He didn't create all of those.

    Metroid was Gunpei Yoko, and Earthbound was Shigesato Itoi. But hey, easy mistake. All Japanese people look the same.
