"Super Secret Nintendo" shoot with Zelda (Williams)

Nintendo is doing some Super Secret filming in NY, most likely to be revealed at E3. Cast member Zelda Williams (daughter of Robin Williams; named after the famed series) has been tweeting about it and I believe the set could be of rather... interest.

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. But I find this last shot a bit..... interesting. Does that not look a bit like a cafe' setting? Or am I just trying to see things that aren't actually there? And is that coffee in her hand?!?!? I guess we will find out in eleven days. :)

Also of note:

Now it's time for my second, completely different Super Secret Special shoot tonight.

Hmm.... You can view more tweets from Zelda Williams here.

Fake Edit: Yes, some did in fact know about this yesterday. But, I believe this deserved its own thread because the information got lost within the many cafe rumor threads.

Very interesting. Wonder if it's for Nintendo Week or something more....

You know if Nintendo ever approves a Zelda movie, Robin Williams (a huge Zelda fan) is bound to be in there.

Secret photo shoot... with Zelda Williams... For something that is coming out soon....

GEIST 2!

Made by Retro Studios? Count me in lol. That samus helmet in the lockers would make a lot more sense that way^^
 
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?

Maybe it was inspired by the video game, but Zelda is not too unusual. Now if someone named his child Cloud or Samus we have a problem.

Well to be fair, princess Zelda was named after Zelda Fitzgerald herself, so if we use circular logic, Zelda Williams was named after a real person.

My thoughts exactly.

The whole "trailer bigger than my house" thing is strange, coming from the daughter of one of the biggest actors/comedians of the last 30 years.

She's hot.

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

Maybe they're using Will Smith's trailer?

He has a better home theater system in his trailer than I have in my house.

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.

Reggie is Ganon? Fuck...
We're all dead.

She's probably doing the 'promo' bits for Cafe's unveiling at E3 i.e. the video segments where someone in a swanky lounge is shown playing with it.

Zelda Cafe is going to be one of those live acton games? Interesting

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

Yep, sounds pretty realistic.

Thread's over, folks, move along.

On a side note, I love how Robin Williams is awesome in how he's a fan of awesome things, whether its Zelda or Neon Genesis Evangelion.

Most definitely. Everyone knows it's "Aerith".
Only if you enjoy speaking like a Looney Tunes character.

"Thufferin' thuccotash, Aerith! Look out for that thord!"
 
Considering how deep a gamer Robin Williams is I'm surprised he hasn't done narration/tutorial/voiceover work for any games that I know of.

I think he has a very entertaining voice (I'm sure some would disagree about that though)

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".

Mind blown.

As far as I'm concerned, the above is now officially true.

Also, if they are filming in a cafe, does that mean they will really name the console cafe?

And additionally, just wanted to add that she is really really really hot.
