    I expect the "Nintendo 3DS stock shortages" news stories to follow in June then. Well, except for the Sun. They'll go with "Wayne Rooney and Charlie Sheen play 3DS and go on rampage at McDonalds".

    I love the Zelda games, and the Mario games and most of the other Nintendo IPs, but I think they need to start making some new games. This will be the 4th Nintendo console this has been released on! :shock:

    I remember reading about Nintendo saying that this game would contain new stuff. Did they just mean the Master Quest? In which case it can shove off.

    Yeah who cares about news relating to the yanks? This is a brit site, we want brit news!!! I want Zelda!! Has anyone seen the 3d pics some guy created for viewing on the 3DS? Makes me want windwaker and f-zero GX. Remake them all again for all I care, I'd buy em!

    Why is Adult Link sitting on the shoulders of Young Link in the picture on the homepage? That's quite odd.

    Well yeah, its a great game and all that, but maybe they could release something new for their amazing new 3D console instead of recycling a 13 year old game again :roll:

    Gotta be honest, this is one 3DS remake I don't mind. It's getting on for 13 years since I played the original so it'll almost be like a new game to me.
    I'd mind even less if they announced a Wave Race 64 remake too.
