It is not a huge surprise that Nintendo has already started working on their next Zelda game. Once one project ends, the next one starts. What is interesting is how Aonuma talks about it. Doesn’t this sound like a game, with a boat, that sails? Or is he just talking in metaphor? Just throwing that out there.

“The long sailing time of creating Skyward Sword, a game to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Zelda series, has just come to an end. The voices of those who’ve played it from around the world reach us. We hear their admiration, comments and their criticism too. All those voices become energy for the next voyage. Well, to tell the truth, we’ve already set sail in a new voyage.”
