With Zelda, we have to consider how to make it accessible for new gamers to pick up and play and enjoy just as hardcore gamers have.

Notice how he only mentions making Zelda accessible when asked about Mario and Zelda? That's because they already made Mario Galaxy accessible with the 2-player option. One player does the traditional Mario madness and the other can help with the second cursor, but they can't die and only have to worry about point and clicking.

They already tried that for Zelda in the Wind Waker with the Tingle Tuner. Except needing a GBA, a cable to connect it the cube, player 1 to boot you up, and a kind of rigid isolated interface wasn't all that accessible. Although for me at least it gave me something to do while my brother constantly needed help.

Probably just be a better version of something like that.
