Curiosity Shop #060: Zelda Dungeon Mailbag

Alright guys, here’s the mailbag. Sorry for there not being one last week, but since there was so much news from E3 it was better not to post a mailbag and just hold it off for a week. This mailbag is almost entirely about Skyward Sword, but I also got asked about the Zelda tech demo shown on the Wii U and something about both Twilight Princess AND Skyward Sword. Next several mailbags will be pretty much focused on Skyward Sword, Ocarina of Time 3D, and Link’s Awakening. Anyway 11 questions in total, so enjoy!

Questions and timestamps:

(00:16) – What did you think of all the Zelda stuff at E3?
(01:06) – What do you think of the graphical style of Skyward Sword now that we’ve seen more of it?
(01:56) – What do you think of the Zelda HD demo shown with the Wii U? Will it be a new Zelda game?
(03:11) – Has Skyward Sword’s release date been confirmed yet? If so what date?
(03:54) – Do you think the developers will ever base a game on the Sheikah and how they came to be the Royal Family’s protectors?
(04:59) – Do you think that the woman in the new trailer who looks like Zelda is one of her ancestors?
(05:43) – Could the bird on the Royal Family’s crest come from the flying creatures in Skyward Sword?
(06:55) – In the new Skyward Sword trailer there’s a guy who looks shockingly like Rauru. Do you think he’s Rauru and if so will there be more Sages?
(08:12) – I’m left handed and am curious if Skyward Sword would be harder playing with the Wiimote in my left hand?
(08:44) – How does Link know the ending blow in Skyward Sword when the Hero’s Shade taunt that to him in Twilight Princess? Is this Link the Hero’s Shade?
(09:40) – What role do you think Ghirahim will play in Skyward Sword?

Can you guess the quote on the paper, the sound at the beginning, or any of the music? What did you think of all the Zelda news at E3? Do you think Skyward Sword’s graphical style looks good? What did you think of it before? What do you think of the Twilight Princess HD tech demo for the Wii U? Could the old man in the Skyward Sword trailer be Rauru, or the King of Hyrule, or Kaepora Gaebora? And what role will Ghirahim play in Skyward Sword? Tell me in the comments!
