<b>DS Zelda Update!</b><br><br>


As the main man in charge of all things Zelda, Aonuma also has a role in Link's next portable adventure, already well under way for Nintendo's DS handheld (expect an official announcement soon). “What I can tell you,” he says, “is that it's going to use the touch screen for a very unique control system that people have never experienced in a Zelda game before.” How so? “I think one of the important elements of the Zelda series has always been that you feel like you're in the world doing the things that Link is doing and touching the things that Link is touching,” he says. “This time you'll be able to use the touch screen and actually touch those items and objects yourself.” And while Aonuma confirms DS Zelda will not be a Four Swords title or a multiplayer game, he won't say a word about the graphics. 3D? 2D? Both? Cartoony? Realistic? He laughs: “You'll have to look forward to hearing about that.”
