Maybe she is the real Zelda, this generation reincarnation of her. In the video she'll lift her hand and reveal she has the triforce of wisdom and say "I know you're out there, Link."

Video will then end and Reggie will grin to the crowd, revealing he has the triforce of power.

E3 2011 ruined because this awesome thing will never happen

 

[Xal-Shoota]

who would name there child after video games?

I met a dude on craigslist when I was trying to sell some tickets last week. His name was Ganon, no joke. I dont think his parents even played Zelda though...

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Whatever it is, this is great marketing.

 

[upandaway]

But her name is Zelda. After Zelda. They are hinting at something

Yeah. I don't see why they'd use her specifically when the thing isn't related to Zelda.

It's fucking related to Zelda.

Nintendo Week: The Movie

 

[Marleyman]

Zzzzzzzelda....

 

[madara]

Makes sense to tie into zelda anniversary. Question really is are we getting some new hot sprite work for whatever is coming, surely not a downgrade in visuals like NSMB was?

 

[Screenboy]

You just know Nintendo is going to release a Zelda game in the same vein as New Super Mario Bros. and its end lives...

 

[D-Pad]

Isn't that was Four Swords essentially was? New Legend of Zelda?

 

[bengraven]

I met a dude on craigslist when I was trying to sell some tickets last week. His name was Ganon, no joke. I dont think his parents even played Zelda though...

So we found Zelda and now have proof Ganon is alive.

Where is this generations Link?

And how does this affect the timeline?

 

[upandaway]

Isn't that was Four Swords essentially was? New Legend of Zelda?

I'm sorry, but if you think Four Swords is anything like the original Zelda just because it's 2D, then we need to have a talk about this.

 

[Krev]

Also, how cool would it be if her and her dad came out on stage at E3 to play Miyamoto and Reggie in the new Four Swords Adventure?

That would be rad.

Maybe she is the real Zelda, this generation reincarnation of her. In the video she'll lift her hand and reveal she has the triforce of wisdom and say "I know you're out there, Link."

Video will then end and Reggie will grin to the crowd, revealing he has the triforce of power.

No, wait...this would be rad.

Yeah, I wouldn't be shocked if they're doing a Zelda commercial starring her and maybe her dad, mentioning how he loved the series so much he named it after her.

Like one of those celebrity bus DS trailers with Robin Williams playing OoT3D and talking about how much he loves those games. And saying, "you don't believe me?" She walks in: "hey dad" The words on the screen say "ZELDA WILLIAMS".

I'm imagining that directed by Wes Anderson, and with the titles written in Futura.
At the end of the conference we can have Reggie, Miyamoto and Iwata walking away in slow motion to a sweet British invasion track.

Isn't that was Four Swords essentially was? New Legend of Zelda?

If Cafe is what it's rumoured to be, the time is now for a new Four Swords. Hardware has finally caught up with the concept.

I'm sorry, but if you think Four Swords is anything like the original Zelda just because it's 2D, then we need to have a talk about this.

I think D-Pad meant that it's a 'traditional' 2D instalment with a co-op/competitive multiplayer focus, just like NSMB Wii.

 

[Bentendo]

She could definitely play Zelda. If a movie were to happen, then Norm Lewis would be the perfect Ganondorf:

Spoiler

Yes, I've been waiting for the perfect thread to post this. BTW this is him as Javert in Les Miserables.

Crystal Chronicles 2 please

 

[TheLastCandle]

She actually kind of has this exotic look in her eyes and nose that I pictured the "real" Zelda to have.

Yeah, definitely.

 

[Krev]

Crystal Chronicles 2 please

Yes!
Finally.
I hope they haven't given up on the franchise because of the lacklustre sales of a certain spin-off with nothing to do with the original.

Yeah, definitely.

Jaded Alyx said in the Cafe rumour thread where this was initially posted that she could be Zelda's face model for future games. I could see it.

I was actually joking, but she could pull it off.

 

[Krev]

I was actually joking, but she could pull it off.

I know, and I doubt Nintendo would ever use a real person as a facial model for a Zelda character (things like Koji Kondo as Tingle don't count). But it would work well if they did.

 

[From The Dust]

I was actually joking, but she could pull it off.

it would actually make Zelda desirable.

If you're going to name your kid after a video game, it might as well be zelda

 

[From The Dust]

If you're going to name your kid after a video game, it might as well be zelda

at least Zelda is a real name (Ganon too I think)

 

[Dreamwriter]

Common sense tells you that this shoot has something to do with the Legend of Zelda series, mostly likely being tied into OOT 3D, Skyward Sword, or the rumored LOZ 25th anniversary title.

Why would common sense tell you that? Because of an actress' first name?

As for naming her Zelda, at least that's a real name. Imagine poor Nicholas Cage's son, Kal-el.

 

[Throwaway123456789]

His son is named after Cody from Final Fight (and later Street Fighter).
The man is a total nerd who probably reads these forums

He named his son after Superman's real name!? Which comes from a language that doesn't exist on a planet that doesn't exist either?

The poor guy...

 

[Zomba13]

She's hot.

This. I knew about her (well her name and why she was named that and who her father was) but had never seen a pic of her.

 

[Eradicate]

Oh, that is a good choice for Ganondorf! I'm not super familiar with him, but I can swear I've seen a video with him and Audra McDonald performing together.

After going clue hunting, in one of her pictures posted after the shoot, she's wearing a ring on her finger that looks nearly exactly like the earrings Zelda wears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, which were basically rings anyways. Because I'm likely reading way too much into it, I dare not post up comparison pictures.

I do figure that she is portraying Zelda for this shoot/commercial/whatever though.

now that's sad :lol

Yeah, at least Zelda is a real name. Clark would have worked, or Kent.

Goddamn Robin Williams is such a boss.

 

[Relix]

So we have...

Zelda

Gannondorf

and...

Link

 

[Cranzor]

Some Mother/Earthbound fans believe Reggie to be Giygas. They also say Game Freak named the Pokemon Regigigas to hint to people that Reggie really is Giygas.

So is he Ganon and Giygas???

And a good one at that. Zelda Fitzgerald was always one of my favorite names. Too bad she went insane.

 

[ColonelColon]

ohfuck, what are you going to do when the cows come home? poor cows.

 

[brochiller]

Rejected.

He may be the only actor that would make me not pay admission to a Zelda movie.

 

[Graphics Horse]

I'm so glad I wasn't the only one thinking that.

Yum...

"Oh! Hey! Listen! Goooooooooooooooooooooood Morning Link!"

Goddammit

why can I hear that so vividly

 

[Femmeworth]

I wasn't aware that Robin Williams had such a pretty daughter. O_O

I get a yummy Alizee vibe from her. I support her casting for a live-action movie!

 

[AlphaTwo00]

So, what happened with this? Not for the conference?

Apparently not

It has been established that Robin Williams is Tingle.
