None of those involve a "geeky" nerd term as the object of the game.  Shard is a total nerd term.  The object of Zeldas are mainstream terms:  Mask, Hourglass, Princess, etc all are as well.  The weirdest title is actually Ocarina, but it's still not something you'd rip from the fantasy section at chapters.  The other fake leak we had this week about Zelda "Falling Sun" or whatever it was is way more plausible, since most people would know what a falling sun was.

The Shard thing is extra obvious because fake leaks are written by internet geeks and internet geeks love campy high fantasy and that's the only place you'd find a term like shard.

Mirrors's shard from Twilight Princess and Nightmare from Link's Awakening doesn't have anything geek.

Nightmare's all good.  Shard, nope.
