idk if i want flying in my zelda

Aonuma is one of my favorite game directors right now. I like his approach to game design.

It says a lot that I think he's the one who needs to be handling my pick for the best franchise in gaming.

If there's some airship mechanic to the new zelda, im sold! ..but then again, im sold whatever they doXD

I predict:

-Some living weapon mechanics ala "Soul Eater"
-Some airship mechanic ala "Skies of Arcadia"

Aaaand my predictions are allways right^^

So instead of riding Epona Link traded for Pegasus. Eh I can dig it as long as Link doesn't have a plane. That'd be even dumber than a train.
I'm still getting Spirit Tracks though I'm a sucker for Zelda.

I think this will... hm.

Part of me wants to guess it will be some kind of crazy flying machine, but another par of me wants to guess that it will involve some kind of creature that Link rides. Mounts are always pretty great.

What can I say...totally awsome! This is something me and several others has brought up when discussing the next Zelda, and it seems it will become reality! I hope they will use it well.

Spirit Airs sounds pretty cool but I think pushing Zelda games to the StarFox series isn't Zelda essance but anyway I do believe in Mr. Anouma just like Mr. Miyamoto have done until now and for sure forever ^_^.

Maybe Link could parasail.

That'd be awesome.

To be honest I never gave the notion of Link taking flight much thought (outside of Wind Waker where you use the whirlwind to warp around...I wondered briefly what it would be like to fly across the great ocean instead of sailing) but I fully embrace it as it makes absolute sense to me. Epogesus, please!

I could see a number of ways for Link to take flight if it were to happen:

1. Like other have said, giving him some sort of winged mount, whether it be a variation of Pegasus or what have you.
2. Bring back the masks and have one that provides Rito-ish powers.
3. Introduce some other item that makes Link capable of flight, whether its some Deku-ish device, boots with wings, or something along the lines of the Wings of Icarus from God of War III.
4. Keeping with the somewhat machina feel of Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks, possibly provide Link with something along the lines of Da Vinci's flying machine, as seen in Assassin's Creed II.  Or maybe even a steam punk airship of sorts, akin to the boats and trains in the DS titles.

If they do decide to implement flight, there are countless ways they could go about doing it.  Possibly tying things into the peopel of the sky, as well.
