I think we might get Smash Bros. even earlier in 2014, around springtime. It seems like you're very confident in a 2014 Zelda, which makes me very happy. I had guessed it would debut in 2015. What makes you so sure? |
Iwata. He publicly urged Aonuma to cut down the dev time of the next episode to 3 years and Nintendo outsourced Ocarina of Time 3D. The last Zelda games released in 2006, 2007, 2009 and 2011 and dev time for Skyward Sword was 5 years - that means two things: 1) they started developing Skyward Sword right after Twilight Princess was released and 2) they had the capacity to pump out 2 handheld games inbetween. Assuming development on Wii U Zelda started right after the release of Skyward Sword a 3 year dev cycle would lead to a late 2014 release. Either that or we'll get a full new handheld Zelda game no later than 2014. They could even do both at once and let Grezzo help with the handheld version.
