Since the announcement of the Wiiâs control scheme, gamers have longed for a single concept; 1:1 swordplay in a Zelda game. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword aims to finally deliver the dream of intuitive, waggle-free Zelda on the Wii.
GameZombieâs David Klein spoke with Skyward Swordâs Project Marketing Manager, Daniel Orihuela, on the show floor of E3 2010. Orihuela described the gameâs focus on nailing the core mechanics, specifically in terms of implementing accurate, enjoyable motion controls. He also depicted a sample of Linkâs new arsenal, including a few returning favorite weapons from the series.
The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is slated for release in 2011. Looks like Naviâs sitting this one out, too!
