Aonmua: Good job noticing that, the bracelet. The detail carried over in the revised art shown last August, so we asked about it. What does this mysterious bracelet do?Even in the original 3D art, we couldn't help but notice Link is wearing a new bracelet. What can you tell us about the bracelet Link is wearing? So there are other views that I guess you could call movie-type scenes or cinematic-type scenes in the game, yes. Aonuma: For people who really want to get into the story and play the game for that whole story aspect вЂ“ thatвЂ™s what drives them to play the game вЂ“ there are certain elements of the story that you really have difficulty representing from a top view or even from a side view. When Aonuma described the art, we noticed he mentioned вЂњcinematic scenes.вЂќ Up until now, Nintendo has only shown us two demos and multiple screenshots from a top-down perspective, so we asked him to elaborate his previous answer. Are There Cinematic Cutscenes in A Link Between Worlds? Please understand what this change represents, and that we may see more changes moving forward as well. Please understand that what you guys are seeing is really development inвЂ¦ YouвЂ™re getting a live, real-time view into development. Also, just letting you know, since itвЂ™s not finalized yet, we may see more changes going forward. Then, as we started getting further into the development of the game and started finalizing the artwork and looking at the cinematic scenes and looking at how Link was represented in the game itself, we then adapted the artwork to come closer to what you were going to see in the game, and thereby remove that gap that had previously existed in the original title. I have to say that when we were creating artwork for E3, we really just hadnвЂ™t finalized what that artwork was going to be, so the image that you saw, the art asset we used for E3, was almost a placeholder, letвЂ™s say. However, as weвЂ™ve moved on to 3DS and started developing this game, weвЂ™ve discovered that you can see Link in the game. So that gap wasnвЂ™t problematic, letвЂ™s say. Then, when you got into the game, of course, because of the technology of the time, you couldnвЂ™t see Link in any specific detail.

But addressing the artwork, if we look at the original title, you see that the artwork that we used to advertise the game didnвЂ™t really match the artwork that was in the game, because the artwork we had to advertise the game had a very mature, adult-like Link. WeвЂ™re positing this asвЂ¦ I guess you could say itвЂ™s a sequel to the last game. Eiji Aonuma: In Japan, where this game is called Kamigami no Triforce 2 (editors note: this translates to The Triforce of the Gods 2, the original Japanese title of the game we know as A Link to the Past), in the U.S., itвЂ™s titled A Link Between Worlds, so thereвЂ™s a little bit of difference even in the image the title creates. We asked Aonuma to talk a little bit both pieces, and tell us why the change happened. Iwata introduced a new piece of art that depicted a younger Link than the one shown previously at E3 2013. The E3 art for Zelda: A Link Between Worlds (middle) was inspired by the Japanese box art for A Link to the Past (far left).Д«efore we get too specific, here's some quick context: During a Nintendo Direct presentation in early August, Global President Satoru Iwata announced a few new details for A Link Between Worlds.

HereвЂ™s three things (sort of) that we learned about the upcoming Nintendo 3DS installment of Zelda. For a game due out in two and a half months, we still know surprisingly little about it. But during our interview we couldn't help but ask a few questions about their other upcoming Zelda project, The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds. Last week IGN caught up with Nintendo producer Eiji Aonuma to chat about Wind Waker HD.
