{{Interview/A|Aonuma|Most of the enemies that appear in the field for example are touched up versions of characters from A Link to the Past. We've recreated a very similar world to that game in 3D so we thought it would be fun if the enemies there fought in the same way as in A Link to the Past. However, since the 3D effect introduces the new concept of height to the gameplay we have changed some attacks so that they take height into account. We have also brought back some characters from A Link to the Past. These are characters where there is a point to having them there in a similar role to what they had in A Link to the Past. Perhaps most notably [[Sahasrahla]], who guides [[Link]] on this adventure too, helping him, using the knowledge he has as an elder.}}

{{Interview/A|Aonuma|She is shrouded in mystery. I don't actually know myself exactly why she looks like she does. However, as the question mentioned, she exists in both Hyrule and Lorule and we thought it would work well to make her a bit different from other characters since she has this ability to travel between worlds. So we decided to make her look a bit alien. If you rescue all of the [[Maiamai]] then you may learn a little more about her so I would encourage you to play and discover this for yourself.<br><br>Oh, one more thing. I see many of you have been asking about a remake of [[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]] for Nintendo 3DS. It's nice to see such a strong response to this title and we haven't forgotten about Link's adventures in that world. If you play A Link Between Worlds, you may better understand what I mean by that.}}
