    ok im well aware this could be fake but it sounds well thought out. apparently it's real.


    I found some really interesting rumors on GCNGB.

    Legend of Zelda: Reins of Sorrow

    Fake or Not?

    KA Monthly recently had the chance to sit down with Nintendo producer/director Eiji Aonuma, who discussed with us some interesting details concerning the forthcoming Zelda title for the Gamecube.

    The game, a sequel to 2003's smash hit The Wind Waker, will feature a new Link, one "whose personality thrives on his emotions." The game is also said to be more character-driven, with "Link having a deeper and introspective personality," one that reflects "the sheer magnitude of his determination and sense of solitude."

    Gameplay elements were also discussed: "The game will feature an even larger world than the previous titles, so exploration will be the key." To traverse this vast land, Link will now have to set up camp and rely on a magical item: the reins of sorrow. "Link's new friend is a horse named Poseidon, whom he saves from drowning in a flood caused by a terrible storm. On Poseidon's back are the magical bridles, the reins of sorrow, which allow him to transform into various beings." Some 'beings' mentioned were an eagle and a wolf.


    More details on The Reins of Sorrow will be reported as soon as they come in. Expect a summer 2005 release for the Gamecube.




    Apparently Eiji Aonuma was talking to something called G4techtv about it, which was posted on a spanish forum. He apparently told them the Japenese name for the game..."Zelda no Denetsu: Yuushuu no Tadzuna." ...which supposedly translates to something like "The legend of Zelda:The Ride of Melancholy."



    we can only wait and see.

    if thats true I can't wait! I was hoping they'd finally give Link an actual personality for once :rolleyes:
    As opposed to the silent hero of the previous games, hey the new one might have speech!
    I remember watching one of the discs that came with a games magazine and it showed some clips, looks really good.

    That interview is fake, and any subtitle you've heard to date ("Reigns of Sorrow" etc.) are also fake.

    Link will probably never have a voice, and imo shouldn't. It would distance you as a player from the character of Link since he would now have his own voice, his own things that he says etc. In Zelda you are supposed to be Link.

    Some pics to brighten up this thread a bit:
