It did happened when Nintendo and Phillips went into partnership. The original idea was to develop a CD add-on for the SNES. However, when they saw the way SEGA went after using the same concept with their Mega Drive, this project was put on ice.

Nintendo had already given Phillips the permission to create new games using some of their most exclusive franchises, Zelda included.

The results of this were the three Zelda games for the Phillips CD-i console, and
the name of the games are Wand of Gamelon, Faces of Evil and Zelda's Adventure.

Nintendo would b in trouble if they try to sell their exclusive games to other platform. many ppl buy gamecube just bcoz to play their exclusive games which is rare to b seen in other platform.

For N64 console, it seems that only Nintendo exclusive games are selling. This cause other companies to stay away from this console.

I am waiting for Kid Icarus to come out a new game, if ever.

Damn right about it! GC wouldn't be there if there's no exclusive titles such as Zelda, StarFox, Mario and so on.

The year for Legend of Zelda.

The Legend of Zelda for GBA, The Adventure of Link for GBA, Four Swords Adventures for GameCube, and The Minish Cap for GBA all came out this year.

But we all know what we are looking forward to. May 2005, with the final unvieling of the Zelda game many have waited a long time for.

Zelda series, they always got delayed, but produced the best result you can ever imagine.

Miyamoto prefer to release completed finished game even though it will be delay.

Back to Zelda... So the next Zelda game will be launched next year? Or 2006? I only saw the preview clip of it. This time they used the more mature-style 3D modelling, but Link still looks cool with that sword. Anyway, Zelda is famous with its ARPG style with many interesting gameplay. Who cares for the graphic?

This game is schedule to be out on Q1 of 2005 and there is no official title for this game.

Now that's the omen for delaying, isn't it?

zelda not yet on NDS...errmm heard that we FINALLYYYYYYYY get to play Princess Zelda as playable character...hahaha...after soo long...

interesting... wat platform it will be then?

it's just a rumor only...but i think that's possible rite? what's wrong playing princess zelda...we already got to play Princess Peach...

Princess Zelda swinging the Golden Sword in Zelda??

Anyway, what's the main theme of the upcoming Zelda game on GC?

Rumour on Zelda for DS.
The Zelda team is already planning Four Swords for the Nintendo DS. This game will have a lot of connectivity and feature a lot of interaction between both screens. It will be interesting.

Eiji Anouma on story and gameplay of the new LOZ: We are focusing more on giving the game a very realistic tone, as you could see in the video we showed [at E3], and it's heavily influenced by Ocarina of Time. As development goes on, we will be adding new details that have worked in other titles, so we can come up with a very complete game.

LOL! The "Official Statement" again??
