- alledged reports of a trusted Nintendo insider claim that a video from upciming Zelda WiiU has been leaked

- the supposed promo video was leaked to Gaming Professionals

- GP wirtes on why they won' share the video:

Editor’s note: While Gamer Professionals has seen the video stated in this article, out of respect for Nintendo, our source, and other parties involved, we have decided against publishing the video, which would infringe on the copyright of Nintendo Co., Ltd and Creative Minds and Souls, LLC, who produced the video. Although we are almost positive of the video’s legitimacy, as of this time, any information or speculation regarding this video should be regarded as a rumor — even the source’s.

- the video is said to still be in the making since it’s entitled “First Draft”

- videos is said to have the first forty seconds missing and the footage still contains in production artifacts like watermarks and time stamps

- the contents of the video are described:

“The video contains clips from The Legend of Zelda, TheAdventure of Link, and A Link to the Past, but focuses on the relationship between a young father and his daughter. The two watch the clips together, and at one point, the little girl asks, ‘Can I be a hero like Link?’ She even attempts to put together her own makeshift Link costume, but fails and is left discouraged. Her dad then steps in with Link’s classic green garb, along with a wooden sword and shield, with the latter having a golden Hylian Crest engraved on it. She then lies down in bed in full-on Link garb, seemingly content with a smile on her face. The video then fades to white. “A New Generation Begins” then appears on the screen, leading into the Legend of Zelda logo, although no subtitle is given. It ends with Nintendo’s ‘Only on Wii U’ screen.”

Zelda WiiU to tell Link's origin story? Theory inside

I think it was leveled to "fake".

Saw this awhile ago. Honestly I just wanna see a story trailer already...

I'm not sure if this is a trolling attempt or not.

Was this trying to say Link is a female in Zelda U?
Also, "A new generation begins" seems really freaking stupid since each Zelda game takes place houndreds of generations apart -.-

They want to surprise us with the nx version

Hot lesbian bff stuff in the next Zelda.. I would like to see that.. Or do you think they'll also switch Zelda's gender to male?

The video exists, but it's 100% fan-made.

"out of respect for Nintendo, our source, and other parties involved, we have decided against publishing the video,... now let me describe in my own words all the juicy details of what i saw...."

Guys, this isn't fake. Watch the video. It just wasn't made by Nintendo. That company sent this to Nintendo as a pitch. Not fake, just not official either.
