@Nicolai I thought that theory that the giant guardian had blown the hole in that snowy mountain was ridiculous when I first saw it, but I'm starting to like it more and more. Especially if the guardian snipes you from afar as you cross the world relatively near Death Mountain. That'd be sick, like a rul rul swole Halo scarab!

@Haru17: I like the theory that the Gorons took a collective bite out of it. But it would also be an incredible feat if Nintendo was able to get an enemy to track and shoot you from a mile away. Talk about draw distance! But on the Wii U, my guess is that the fact that we can see it moving is only due to some clever background trick, and that its not actually intractable until you get close to it.

@Nicolai I don't know. Theoretically, they could just have that guardian's basic AI constantly loaded. It's already walking around on Death Mountain on Wii U, and the boulders can get launched for miles with stasis. But who can really say? This kind of mechanic would have to factor in the terrain across the open world to determine line of sight too.

@Haru17:They could always just have line of sight apply to your nearby area. Who knows? After all, you're probably mostly going to be reacting by taking cover under nearby crag. All they would have to do is keep your location and the Guardian loaded, but nowhere inbetween; it wouldn't be physically perfect, but it would be appropriate. Man, what a perfect location for a large-scale sniping to take place, right? With all of that torn-up earth?

That would be neat, scaling Death Mountain while that Guardian is sniping you down.

I don't remember where I found it (if someone already posted it here I'm sorry), but someone uploaded basically the whole Zelda Art and Artifacts book in a video.

There's a couple really amazing Twilight Princess promotional pieces that I've never seen before. However, I was kinda disappointed that they didn't delve into the concept art for the characters and enemies in Twilight Princess, but instead printed the 3D renders. Pretty lazy as, even if those files were deleted, I can still find them on freakin' google image search!

But worry not, they still have all of the character concepts for The Wind Waker. As well as all two promotional arts

@Haru17: Without spoiling anything (haven't watched the video for that reason), would Art and Artifacts still be worth getting?

@Tyranexx It's 400 pages of concept art. Some are unreleased, but most can be found online if you look hard enough. Kinda depends if that's what you're looking for or not..

Personally I'd rather just have a high res jpg...

...I might pick it up eventually, but I highly doubt it'll be a day one purchase for me.

I'm feeling that BotW needs a news update soon. It's definitely too early for another Direct, though.

I love how everyone was saying "What are they leading up to with these twitter videos? They have be building up to something soon!"

And then Nintendo literally just stopped.

@Haru17 Yeah, it'd be nice to get a glimpse at their marketing team. I imagine it being something like an old sitcom.

Boss: "Hey, have you finished the next Twitter video?"
Employee A: "I'ts almost done sir!"

crowd giggles

Employee A to employee B: "We forgot to make the new Twitter video! what should we do?"
Employee B: "I have an idea!"

Opens fire escape and jumps out, leaving A to stare blankly at the camera
crowd laughs
A shrugs and jumps out too

@Haru17 That means they still have 5 months to delay the game again

Breath of the Wild.

Coming to the Nintendo NextX. Spring 2026.

(Don't worry, we will see Trifoce Heroes Adventures, three remakes, four HD remasters [including Wind Waker HD HD] and a 3ds sequel to Zelda 2 in between BotW delays).

(Oh yes, the 3ds will still be around).

I'd be down for a Zelda 2 sequel if it's not ugly as sin. And Breath of the Wild is COMING OUT March 4th. Nintendo's OUT OF DELAYS!! I'm gonna rob the store of that game like these freakin' millennials:

Nintendo giving me hope that Zelda will actually launch in March! Oh man...

For right now, I don't think it means anything. Nintendo makes plenty of mistakes on their website that don't amount to anything. It was probably edited by sometime who wasn't even told what the release date is. Besides, it's very unlike Nintendo to release something at the beginning of a launch window. The NX will probably be released on March 31st at 11:59pm.

EDIT: Despite this, outside of the context of this information, I do predict that Zelda will be a launch title in March, based on other reasonings.

Don't forget Triforce Heroes Adventures 3D, the New 3DS exclusive remake of the NX adaptation of the hit 3DS game.

That's a very good point. Western Filth don't get told Hyrule state secrets much.

It'll look exactly the same in style, in the same world and with mostly the same enemies and characters.

Just in 3d, "100 years later".
