Zelda Wii U Demo Won't Look Like The Final?

Everyone remembers the Zelda Demo on the Wii U, but it might not be the final look for the game. In an interview over at Wired, Zelda Producer Eiji Aonuma talks about the Zelda Demo on the Gamecube when it was introduced and how it completely changed with Wind Waker being the end result.

“You probably remember that when we introduced the GameCube, we showed a somewhat realistic Zelda demo,” he said. “And what we actually created was the cel-shaded Wind Waker. So when we show a graphic demo, people think, ‘Oh, this is what the next Zelda will look like,’ but that’s not necessarily the case,” he said.

The Zelda Wii U Demo looks amazingly nice and polished, I would not mind it looking like that at all. And if Nintendo does decide to change it, I hope it will be more impressive.

New Zelda Title For The Wi iU

People have been wondering what Legend of Zelda games this picture game from, was it a demo or a brand new game for the Wii U? Well, Miyamoto finally laid our wondering heads to rest, he has officially confirmed that there will be a new Legend of Zelda game for the Wii U. 

“This is an HD system, our first HD system, and we want to create a real HD Zelda game for it. You will see a lot of these in-depth and deep experiences in terms of visual style. You will also see some play styles that are fun and interesting because of the play structure. You have a screen available at any time that you can check. This dedicated second screen, and the way people may use it, not just for gaming, but to do things like browse the Internet, is the Wii U’s single, biggest design accomplishment. When you look at most TVs in home nowadays it takes awhile for them to turn on. That becomes a barrier for people.”

I'm actually quite surprised that Nintendo is dishing out a new Zelda game since Skyward Sword isn't even out yet. Just shows that they're on top of things. If they're working on it now, then does that mean that this new Zelda game could be a release title for the Wii U?
