If this is going to come out in the late summer/fall in Japan, and for Cmas in America and Europe, then they could potentially announce Zelda Wii in the fall, for a Cmas 2010 release.

I was never really holding my breath for Zelda Wii hitting this year, but I do hope they have something big other than Sports Resort and M&S Winter Olympics.

DS is having a crazy software year with Pokemon, Zelda, DQ, GTA and WarioWare.

 

     They could announce it at TGS.



Heavens to Murgatoids.

I expect Zelda Wii to be announced at either E3 or TGS later this year.



Not a 360 fanboy, just a PS3 fanboy hater that likes putting them in their place ^.^

Hmmmm, errrrr, welllll, ummmm... maybe. Dunno, really, so I'd like to be chucked into the 'Not really sure'-bin.

It reminds me of the rumored steam-punk Zelda. This apparently takes place at a later time in the history of Hyrule than what we have previously seen.

I remember that it was supposed to be all futuristicy

It's also worth remembering that it was an April fools joke.

 Yeah that remember it was fake cause i know Mr. Miyamoto didnt wander off with a lantern in a abandoned space ship.

First, I think that Spirit Tracks will take much shorter to develop than PH. The Engine is already there. Remember Majora's Mask - it was the same situation, the game was released just 2 years after OoT.

Second, I could imagine that Aonuma doesn't direct ST. This could be the perfect opportunity to let someone else take over the director's chair. Just like Miyamoto did with Aonuma on the second N64 installment, MM (I once read in an interview that Miyamoto retook direction of OoT when the team struggled to finish the game).

So that means that the new Zelda DS doesn't necessarily keep Zelda Wii from getting finished.
On the other hand, I don't really believe they would play the Zelda card twice the same year... I'd guess: a summer release of ST, plus an announcement of Zelda Wii at E3, release next year.
And for the holidays... maybe N will actually release Mario Galaxy 2. They'd be stupid not to, the engine has already been developed, and there still are endless possibilities for level designs.



Currently playing: NSMB (Wii) 

Waiting for: Super Mario Galaxy 2 (Wii), The Last Story (Wii), Golden Sun (DS), Portal 2 (Wii? or OSX), Metroid: Other M (Wii), 
... and of course Zelda (Wii)

It'll be announced this year.
