Ganondorf will not appear in Skyward Sword, but the game will touch on the subject of his appearance in Ocarina of Time.

Hyrule is in Skyward Sword, it's below Skyloft.

You know how Fi is the Master Sword... I have a feeling Gaharim or w.e is the Trident of Power.

Edit: There not going to explain Ganondorf's alliance with the King... that kinda doesn't need explaining. But also because this game is years before OOT.

Is there anyone else here who beleives that Ganon and Ganondorf were once seperate entities, and that this game may actually feature Ganon, in big, blue pig form only? Explaining how Ganondorf would eventually be chosen as a host for Ganon? ...Possibly involving Twinrova in the story somehow?

Also @KaiserGX That would be pretty friggin interesting, though considering how different Girahim looks from Phi, I have a hard time seeing it, I hope that doesn't mean anything though, because I would love it if that ended up being the case.

Phi has a Blue Crystal, and Girahim has one that looks the same but red on his side. He has the Title Demon Lord (if I recall correctly).

On Four Swords Adventures it says something about the Trident in the writings, Ancient Demon Reborn. Whoever gets the Trident becomes the King of Darkness. I think Ganon and Ganondorf (or at least Ganon) is a separate spirit. Every time you see Ganon you ALWAYS see the Trident. I know the first Zelda game he doesn't have it, but he does in the artwork for the game. Then the remake for the Satellite View did have him holding the Trident.

Edit: Also for some reason Ghirahim reminds me of Agahnim.

Note how Zelda's father is named Gaepora. That must mean that the owl of the same name in Ocarina of Time must be his spirit or something. The manual of that game actually says something about Kaepora Gaebora being the spirit of an ancient sage.

It reminds me of the names of the sages in that game being the same as various areas in Adventure of Link.

Yeah, Zeldas father is probably one of the sages in this game. I'm just wondering why he took the form of an owl after he died(?).

It says it's the incarnation of an ancient sage.

Maybe it's because, oh I don't know, owls are friggin awesome?!

Yeah that's true^

Darn it, November feels so far away.. I want to play this. Haven't been this excited in ages.

Don't anyone want Kirby? Comes this month, 24... my thread is lonely! D:

Haha, Kirby's not my cup of tea. I'd rather have gotten a new F-Zero.

Come on man, Sword Kirby is basically Link! He has a Spin Attack now! Just pretend he is Link. Come on let's go to my thread.

He does, really? That's nice kind of easter egg thing , lol. But still not interested. IMO the Kirby games tend to be a little to easy. Nothing wrong with that, but I personally want a bit more challenge.

That's why I'm hoping the "second quest" that's included in SS is some kind of Master Quest thing that makes the game a bit harder on the second playtrough.

I present Sword Kirby.

Supposedly the combat system already makes this game a lot tougher:

"As genre-defining as Link's past combat has been, it's fair to say that as each game progresses and you learn attack rhythms, the difficulty plummets. With risk/reward decisions, Skyward Sword is the toughest Zelda yet. "

from NGamer's preview, worth a read.

Of course we want Kirby. But this is a Skyward Sword discussion.

I'm getting my Kirby fix with Kirby's DreamLand and SuperStar Deluxe right now, because Return to Dreamland has to wait.
Skyward Sword is Top priority, Then Super Mario 3D Land, then Sonic Generations, THEN Kirby: Return to Dreamland, just right above Batman: Arkham City and every other game I'd like to play.

There are just TOO many spoilers about this game, it's driving me insane! Doesn't Nintendo learn anything? I mean.. these spoilers are actually ruining the game. Not only for me imo.

@ Terave
No amount of hype or spoilers in the world could make me be dissapointed in this game.
Don't like the spoilers? Stop clicking on Skyward sword topics. Is it really so hard?

No, it isn't. I do still like these game, but too many spoilers ruin games.

My Top priority is Kirby, then Zelda. As I said I wasn't actually interest in Skyward Sword till Miyamoto should the presentation at the Gameshow.
