I cannot remember a confident source in regards of Zelda leaks, but I'll leave here. Some points are rather interesting:

 

Information from the new Legend of Zelda title for Wii U has been leaked through a very reliable source from Nintendo. 

All of this info will be presented and shown to the public officially during Nintendo's new Digital Event format during E3.


~Keeping in line with A Link Between Worlds, the new title will take several liberties with what has become the traditional Zelda "format".

~Taking inspiration from the original Legend of Zelda, exploration will become centerpiece with hundreds of secrets -- of all sizes and varieties -- throughout the game.

~Keeping in line with this, the gameplay will be highly variable -- with some main items being found not only in dungeons, but also in shops, the field, and in trade sequences. Some items can also be found in multiple different ways, meaning many players will find themselves with completely different arsenals at different points in the game.

~Every item will have multiple upgrades as well, and these upgrades are also available at many different points and places in the game.

~There will be hundreds of sidequests that will accompany many of these items and item upgrades. They range from the more personal variety and sometimes questline like found in Majora's Mask, to the simpler, minigame esque type found throughout the series. 

~The game will make ample use of the Wii U gamepad and, because of this, return to the traditional analog stick control format rather than the Wii Motion Plus.

~The game has been described as a tribute to the entire legacy of the Legend of Zelda series; a tribute that pays homage to every Zelda game before it in its gameplay, characters, and atmosphere, yet one that redefines the series in a way that only a game of this caliber can.

~The art style does not strictly follow the 2011 tech demo, but it is obvious that it was definitely an inspiration. Link is a good bit taller, as well as a little older than he appeared in the demo. Many of the areas of the game will be very dark (yet not as "washed out" as Twilight Princess), but there will also be very vibrant areas that scream Wind Waker and Skyward Sword influence. 

~The game will have well over 150 hours of gameplay and much more than anyone needs in replay value with its aforementioned, new gamplay format.

~It will be demoed extensively by Nintendo's Treehouse division during their E3 livestream.

~The game was at one point going to just be titled The Legend of Zelda, but it was out of my source's knowledge whether this name became final. 

~Just as A Link Between Worlds was released the Holiday season it was officially unveiled, The Legend of Zelda Wii U will follow suite, releasing Holiday 2014.


This will all be officially announced on June, 10 2014.

 I'd prefer if instead of disscussing if it's real or not, we disscuss the points and if you'd like or not.

Ugh, I hoped to see some kind of document or something, because these kind of rumors remind me of the countless 'new Sonic game' rumors.

I don't think there's a document about Zelda games.

This is vague and wishlist-like.

BubbleWS is not a source, as Gamespot found out



To bad they dropped the perfect WiiMotion+ . But if Zelda can't highlight the gamepad - which other title should do?

Holiday season 2014 release would be great - will help to move those MK 8 bundles even more like crazy!

Smash Bros. AND Zelda within "reach" - unbelievable good.

And: those development resources can be reallocated to even greater things thereafter. Never was a better time to own a Wii U or to get one...



A lot of these things are within the realms of possibility, even if it's fake, which it likely is.

They're kind of 'safe' guesses, as it contains a lot of things the fan base have been asking for years. More exploration? Sure, we'd want that. Hundreds of side-quests, item upgrades, a style inspired by the 2011 tech-demo? Sure, that'd be cool. 150 hours of gameplay? Please!

However, there's no way the game will be released this holiday. As much as I'd like it, I refuse to believe that.



It's fake, but if it was real, I'd be pleased.



The "release this year" raised a flag that it might be fake.

But who knows, maybe it is ready for this year, but I highly doubt it.

Also, 150 hours? Dam son.
