Miyamoto Talks Revolution and Zelda

1up reports that Shigeru Miyamoto has, almost offhandedly, confirmed that the upcoming Zelda title will utilize the Revolution's wand functionality. From the article: "When asked about Twilight Princess' progress, Miyamoto said everything coming along well, and that 'because Revolution can run GameCube software, when you play Twilight Princess on Revolution you can take advantage of the Revolution controller.' Whoa, whoa, whoa. Stop the train. We already knew Twilight Princess would be playable on GameCube, but it's mighty odd for Miyamoto to simply announce such a feature on a whim - but apparently he has. Not only that, but Miyamoto made sure to underscore that 'almost everything' about Revolution will be revealed at E3 in May."

  1. Most Zelda fans are already wand-proficient? by xxxJonBoyxxx · · Score: 5, Funny

    I think most Zelda fans are already quite proficient at wielding their wands, thank you very much.

    By the way, I'm pretty shocked by the fact that /. hasn't reported that Shigeru Miyamoto is now a FRENCH KNIGHT.

    So does that mean the Rev controller's going to include a surrender button?

  3. So what was that again? by Walkiry · · Score: 2, Funny

    "No! Twilight Princess will be a Gamecube game! Honest! We're still developing for it, we're not doing anything for the Revolution with it! The delay is to make sure it's ready and nothing about releasing when the Revolution hits the shelves! Look at the monkey!! Look at the monkey dance!!"

    Shocking news I tells ya.
