Because the world badly needs another social network

Let's get this out of the way: I love the Legend of Zelda series. It waited in line 14 hours to get my Wii and Twilight Princess was the only game I picked up on launch day. There, now I feel better.
With that being said, the new Zelda title on the Wii, release date unknown, is apparently being given two different stories.
Shigeru Miyamoto is being quoted as saying "I don't think it's going to be that radically different." but from the only artwork that has been released Link is missing one important item. An item that could make or break the hero of time, and item that is a quest in obtaining in itself.
Link isn't holding the Master Sword in the artwork. In fact, he isn't holding any sword. However, he looks to be wearing his traditional Kokiri clothing, so I'm wondering how this game cannot be different. Reports from IGN.com also state that the game will use the newly announced Wii MotionPlus, an attachment that will make movements in Wii games look like real actual human motion, exclusively.



While I'm not entirely convinced that a swordless Link will be a good game, I can say that I still have faith in Nintendo to deliver an amazing game. Nintendo has been known for shaking up the gaming world by utilizing and making popular the use of in game saving, rumble features, and now motion censors, so it only seems realistic for Nintendo to change up the gameplay being our most beloved hero.

I guess we'll have to wait to see what tricks Mr. Miyamoto has up his sleeve and what these tricks will mean to our guy in green.
