Aonuma: Zelda Wii “well underway”
December 14th, 2009 Posted in News, Wii, Written by ValayA little bit of this we’ve heard from Eiji Aonuma before, but some of his quotes are new…
“You may be under the impression that we are still only in the early stages of development – [but] in fact we are well into the making of the game… Our team has been working on making the building blocks regarding the action – the scenarios, dungeon-making and so on. We are well underway. I hope that we can show you something at the E3 show next year and it is something we are hopeful will be surprising. [The team has] already got a very solid response [from MotionPlus].
I actually didn’t know that Zelda Wii was fairly far in development. To me, it sounded like the team was messing around with a few ideas, concepts, and tech demos but didn’t have anything substantial when it came to the true game. But obviously I thought wrong!

By the sounds of it, it doesn’t seem unreasonable to expect a playable demo at E3 and then a holiday 2010 release.
^ that could just be wishful thinking.

It’ll probably be announced for release next year, and then delayed into 2011 in true Zelda style. Can’t wait for the first trailer.

Well, GODDAMMIT AONUMA, give us some info! Screenshots, features, gameplay, a trailer!
That concept art got old fast…

@Caio: QFT! My exact opinion too! I hate that all we have it that stinking piece of artwork since E309!
But at least this is exciting news to hear; & E32010 can be super awesome with at least more solid info… and at least a screetshot or trailer!
So looks like all of my 2010 hopes will finally be made for Zelda Wii folks; I think you know me well enough to say that!

True.
A holiday 2010 release isn’t thinking over the top THAT much.
But considering Galaxy 2 and Other M are comfirmed for 2010 and Miyamoto likes to polish console Zeldas to the limit, I’d expect Zelda Wii for 1st or 2nd quarter of 2011.
Who knows, maybe even holiday 2011!
