The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword 'Opening' trailer

When this game was first announced and the vids were released, I didn't think much of it. At the time, Spirit Tracks left me very bitter as I was going through the same motions established since OoT and the impressionist art style wasn't translating well from what I was seeing in the vids from the concept art.

However, as development went on and more worlds got shown and fleshed out from the mandatory "forest temple" setting, this game, and especially this video has shown that this may be the Zelda game that may rekindle my adoration for the world of Zelda.

I'm ready Nintendo. If this is one of the last Wii first party games, may this go out with a spectacular bang.

EDIT:


Pure brilliance.

It was the trains that did it for me. I didn't mind that they repeated the whole business of having to go back to the first dungeon every time to unlock the next part of the game, but completely taking away control (or close to it) during exploration is a very bad thing for me in a Zelda game. That and there was one new item to play with.

Oracle of Ages/Seasons was the pinnacle of handheld Zelda's for me.
