Nintendo Wii-mote and Zelda exposed at E3
E3 was a spectacular event!! If you missed it, be sure to get all the latest info from IGN!!
E3 began with Mr. Shigeru Miyamoto himself coming out on stage holding the Nintendo Wii’s remote! He started to swing his arms in the air as if he was conducting an orchestra. Little did we know, he was!! The Wii-mote has built-in sensors to monitor the position of the device. So, you can in fact conduct an orchestra!!!
What does this mean for Zelda? A more interactive environment to game in!! You can go up to an enemy and pretend your holding the sword (the wii-mote) and slice and dice him to pieces! You could take out your bow and arrow, point to
where you want to shoot and pull back with the nunchuck (thumb stick) and release! One of the secrets they gave out at E3 was the ability to incorporate sound into the wii-mote. As you pull the arrow back on the string you can heard it right from the controller. As you release the arrow, you hear the sound depart from the remote and end up on the TV speakers!! How cool is that??
There are many other really cool features that this revolutionary gaming console has to offer.
This is going to be huge for developers as the begin to think of new and innovative was to create games. Of course, I can’t wait to get my hands on The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for the Nintendo Wii. The game is also going to be release for Nintendo GameCube.
For those of you who are sceptical to using the new remote - don’t worry, they will also have the traditional remote of the console.
What cools things would you like to see incorporated into the game using the remote??? Any thoughts?
