The Legend of Zelda on Wii U Steals The Show and Raises Expectations

Thomas Whitehead - With Star Fox apparently progressing well, 2015 could be thrilling

During E3 this year Eiji Aonuma introduced The Legend of Zelda on Wii U, the long awaited main-series entry on Nintendo's latest home console. We were shown an art style that shared some similarities with Skyward Sword, but with a slightly more nuanced, cel-shaded and detailed approach to the living painting feel that seems to be evolving as the franchise's calling card on home console. Despite the fact that all we saw was a landscape that rapidly evolved into a short action scene — apparently running off the game's engine and not CG — that was over as quickly as it begun, that segment of the company's Digital Event was quickly declared by many as the highlight of the show.
