The zelda game coming for the 3DS is going to be released in holiday 2013 on the 3DS eshop. it is going to be a sequel of a link to the past. this game will use the same world and art style as the classic A Link to the Past, but it will be a wholly new game on the 3DS. it will have a new feature- link's ability to turn himself into a drawing and move along walls in a 2D style of movement.
The upcoming currently unnamed ''Zelda'' game for the [[Nintendo 3DS]] is a new game in the style of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]''. Development started in early 2011{{Ref|name=mygames|[[Interview:MyGames March 11th 2011|MyGames]], March 11th, 2011}}{{Ref|name=gameblog-2011|[[Interview:GameBlog.fr April 21st 2011|Gameblog.fr]], April 21, 2011|I am currently very busy producing a new Zelda, a new Mario and a new Mario Kart on 3DS and a new Pikmin.|[[Shigeru Miyamoto]]}}, and the game is currently set to release '''Holiday 2013''', just a few months after ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD|The Wind Waker HD]]''.

[[Shigeru Miyamoto|Miyamoto]] did imply in an interview with French website GameBlog.fr that he is working on a new Zelda game, which is likely a 3DS title:
At the [[25th Anniversary]] Symphony Concert in London, Aonuma told the Portuguese e-zine MyGames{{Ref|[[Interview:MyGames March 11th 2011|MyGames]], March 11th, 2011}} that he is currently working on a new Zelda title for the 3DS, and that it will be an original title, not a remake.

I think it would be good to see that world with a layered 3D effect.}} which suggests that the idea existed at that time but hadn't yet found its way into the development of Zelda 3DS. However, this likely happened shortly afterward, since [[Eiji Aonuma]] was able to give a specific hint that "having 3D will mean something,"{{Ref|[[Interview:Game Informer October 2011|Game Informer]], October 2011|I'll give you one hint, but maybe you won't understand it.  It will be a game in which having 3D will mean something.|[[Eiji Aonuma]]}} showing that a solid vision of the game was in place. Miyamoto further teased ''A Link to the Past'' as a base for a new game in 2012:
 
{{Quote|We must understand that our main job is to sell games. So personally I do not play as much as I want. I am currently very busy producing a new Zelda, a new Mario and a new Mario Kart on 3DS and a new Pikmin.|Miyamoto{{Ref|[[Interview:GameBlog.fr April 21st 2011|GameBlog.fr]], April 21st, 2011}}}}
[[File:Zelda3DSNotice.png|280px|right]]
However, that quote was translated from Japanese to French to English, so it's difficult to discern how seriously it should be taken. It implies these are all going to be 3DS titles, but it could be just as easily taken to mean only the Mario Kart title is confirmed for the 3DS, and that's not even factoring in potential translation errors. Still, it does seem to suggest full confirmation that a new 3DS Zelda is being worked on by Miyamoto himself.
 
On February 22, 2012, new hint was given by The Legend of Zelda producer, [[Eiji Aonuma]]. He has sent out a swapnote message on the Nintendo 3DS, telling people that he hopes they're looking forward to the next Zelda game which is likely to come out on the Nintendo 3DS.
{{Clear}}
 
==Use of 3D in Zelda==
On the subject of an original title on the 3DS, Aonuma gave GameInformer a response that could indicate that development is already underway:
 
{{Quote|Of course we've thought about it.  I'll give you one hint, but maybe you won't understand it.  It will be a game in which having 3D will mean something.|Aonuma{{Ref|[[Interview:Game Informer October 2011|Game Informer]], October 2011}}}}
 
==A Link to the Past Remake==
However, another interesting quote has surfaced, also from Miyamoto:
 
{{Quote|Are there any plans to adapt other older Nintendo games for the 3DS console?<br><br>Not really. We would like to create more new titles. For example, this year we are making Super Mario 3D, but it's not really a remake of [the Wii's Super Mario] Galaxy. [[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|The Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past]] could be one of them. I think it would be good to see that world with a layered 3D effect.|Miyamoto{{Ref|[[Interview:Observer April 30th 2011|The Observer]], April 30th, 2011}}}}
 
This quote implies that their exact plans for the project are not set in stone. At one point he implies that they want to make new titles, but then he suggests an A Link to the Past remake for the 3DS.
 
==New Game Based on A Link to the Past==
In recent interview by Edge, Miyamoto says that he'd rather make a new game starting from or using the same style as The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past.
 
{{Quote|I think the answer would be the same if we're talking about just porting, but I think I'd be even more interested in creating something new maybe based on, or starting from, A Link To The Past. I think it's important to bring some really new software.|Miyamoto{{Ref|[[Interview:Edge April 12th 2012|Edge]], April 12th, 2012}}}}

All in all, exactly what the future for Zelda on the 3DS holds is a mystery. We can only speculate at this point.

Platform

Date

Nintendo 3DS

Holiday 2013

The upcoming currently unnamed Zelda game for the Nintendo 3DS is a new game in the style of A Link to the Past. Development started in early 2011[1][2], and the game is currently set to release Holiday 2013, just a few months after The Wind Waker HD.

Development

At the 25th Anniversary Symphony Concert in London, Aonuma told the Portuguese e-zine MyGames[3] that he is currently working on a new Zelda title for the 3DS, and that it will be an original title, not a remake. Shigeru Miyamoto mentioned a "new Zelda" he was producing in April 2011.[2] Shortly afterward, he expressed interest in seeing the world of A Link to the past with a layered 3D effect,[4] which suggests that the idea existed at that time but hadn't yet found its way into the development of Zelda 3DS. However, this likely happened shortly afterward, since Eiji Aonuma was able to give a specific hint that "having 3D will mean something,"[5] showing that a solid vision of the game was in place. Miyamoto further teased A Link to the Past as a base for a new game in 2012:

"I think the answer would be the same if we're talking about just porting, but I think I'd be even more interested in creating something new maybe based on, or starting from, A Link To The Past. I think it's important to bring some really new software."

— Miyamoto[6]

Majora's Mask 3D

Main article: Operation Moonfall

At the 25th Anniversary Symphony Concert in London, Aonuma told the Portuguese e-zine MyGames[7] that he is currently working on a new Zelda title for the 3DS, and that it will be an original title, not a remake. He didn't feel it was right to release two remakes so close together, but a Majora's Mask remake is still a possibility for the future. He reiterated this sentiment in a November interview with GamesRadar:

"I did hear that there's a website here that was launched in North America by some people that are hoping we'll release a 3D version of Majora's Mask. Of course I'm very flattered to hear that so many people are asking for that game, so I hope that at some point in the future hopefully, maybe, we'll be able to do something with it."

— Aonuma[8]
