Handheld Zelda pushed again

Much in the style of high profile video games and mentally handicapped children around the world, Zelda: Phantom Hourglass has been held back... again. It's most recent release number was early 2007, but that has now become a hazier shade of October '07.

Yes, this is bad news for the dirty elven otaku out there who need to get their handheld Link-on. And while this seems as though some people's hopes have been dashed upon the rocks below there is a light at the end of the tunnel. According to a Game Informer rumor, Zelda Wii is already a year in development and we should expect it sooner rather than later. Certainly that'll be good news for the Hyrulians in the crowd.

While I love Twilight Princess, the game was very notably not designed for the Wii. It will be interesting to see what Nintendo pulls from their rear when they build the game from the beginning with the intent of utilizing the the tech allotted by the Wii's unorthodox controls.

Again, this is all rumor mongering and such, but if their is validity to it... woohoo!
