Motion Plus Confirmed for Next Zelda! - NintendoPals.net Nintendo Friend Codes Forum

SuperSonic · 11-03-2009, 11:28 AM

It has been rumoured since it was "revealed" by Shigeru Miyamoto at E3, and has now been confirmed by the man himself that the next installment of The Legend of Zelda on the Wii will make use of the Wii Motion Plus peripheral.

Miyamoto says:

“In this (installment of the series), we’re using MotionPlus to make you feel much more like you’re actually fighting while holding a sword in your hand,”
“...In the previous game, you aimed at things by pointing at the screen, but this time we’ll use MotionPlus to create a much more convenient targeting system and a more pleasurable playing experience.”

This will no doubt please those of us who were disappointed by the lack of innovation in the previous console effort, Twilight Princess, and 1:1 sword fighting is one hell of a start in doing so.

This indicates the game is well into its development now too, so hopefully we'll see more than a single piece of concept art from the game soon!

Sauce (For those of you that know Moonspeak.)

Thoughts?

Nice info. New innovation to the gameplay. Cant wait to see concept art from the game.

A little obvious...
But I'd love to wield a sword more... D=

I'm gonna swing my wiimote and stab Ganon in the heart.
And end up breaking my TV, but who cares, I killed Ganon.

I think this is going to be quite epic. The only thing to make it better would be if it came with an actual sword! that would be pretty cool. I'm liking the 1:1 sword action

Here's a English source for those who can't read Japanese: special sauce

Anyways, I'm glad we got this confirmation. It seemed quite obvious that Zelda was going to use the motion plus since Wii Sports Resort has a lot of elements from the game, like sword fighting, canoeing, Frisbee (boomerang), and such.

Thank you Nintendo! I can't wait to actually get some use out of the Motionplus as Wii Sports Resort did not interest me that much.

Sooo true man. Sooo true.

I'm happy about this. A decent Wii Motion Plus game for once...

Yeah actual sword like action. Not just swinging it around hoping to do the right movements and busting the fan when your hand goes to high
