Gessle Wrote:I just purchased the magazine and I'm posting some new info:
- The story begins with Link as an adult (he is 16 years old in this game and will grow up as the game progresses)
- The village that appears in the pics is the first area in the game (as Kokiri Village in OoT)
- Controls are similar to those of OoT and Wind Waker
- The game's extension is 2 to 3 times bigger than Ocarina of Time
- The adventure can last up to 70 hours
- Horse battles will be a main part of the game
- Eiji Aonuma says: "Making the water trasparent in this new Zelda as opossed to Wind Waker will allow us to give a realistic and more beautiful feel to the game and also open the game to a new subaquactic world"
- Z targetting found in OoT is again used (with the L button in the GC's controller)
- Jumping is again automatic
- Eiji Aonuma wants the graphical style to be close to manga-style (he thinks that the Link found in the SpaceWorld 2000 demo looked like a puppet and lacked personality)

As for the DS info, the pic is actually from Zelda Four Swords GC. Aonuma says that Zelda DS will be Four Swords-based, with wireless multiplayer and some touch screen control. Asked about the connectivity between Zelda DS and Zelda GC (stupid question, as DS cannot connect to GameCube), Aonuma says that it is unlikely (what else could he say?).
