These are all rumours of course and we need to be careful. We will get enough answers E3 so we will see if some of these are right.
We got some new Rumors coming over from ZeldaInformer :
So everyone by now has heard so many rumors about Zelda Wii that it makes us sick to our stomach just imagining the possibilities of truth. As always, the first and second batch really fit well together, but there is no way to really prove the truthfulness of them until E3. Same goes for this new batch, which just came fresh off the email press... oh a good 30 minutes ago. We do have an in-house translator working some angles to get the truth, but as of right now we have no official word on the "validity" of the source. The big thing with these rumors is some of them directly conflict with previous rumors, while at the same time still seeming highly plausible.
- Zelda Wii's official title is "The Legend of Zelda". There will be no subtitle.
- The game tells a story several hundred years before Ocarina of Time.It also answers the question of how the Mastersword came into being.
- The fairy-like girl plays is a very important character in the game. Her Name is Zordiana.
- The Hookshot is also in the game and it has new abilities. It will not pull you immediately to the target you aimed. Now it is possible to swing with the Hookshot, like with the Grappling Hook from WW. The Hookshot makes no use of Wii Motion Plus.
- Sometimes you have to "draw" a specific symbol on a door with your sword, to open it.
- The Bow-Control is very similar to the Bow-Control in Wii Sports Resort, as the script shows.
- There are two levels of difficulty. Aonuma put it through. Miyamoto didn't want to include it.The Normal-Mode for amateurs. The Hero-Mode has no "Super Guide" included and the enemies tougher.
- The On-Stage Dungeon, which is also playable at E3, isn't a Dungeon as we know it from the Zelda series. When entering a Dungeon, you will not notice you are in one. It will be a smooth gradation.
- There will be Dungeons with no Bosses and Bosses with no Dungeon. The "Dungeon" you are able to play at E3 will be an Ice-Level. It will be the frist "Dungeon" in the Game.
While we have not yet verified these rumors, rest assured we are working on it. What I will tell you is they come from a German forum, and yes the rumors do actually exist there. We are in the process of contacting the poster of the rumors to get a further source, so we'll let you know what we find as soon as we know. If it turns up nothing, we WILL release the source site later today. If it turns into something, hopefully we can add some real value to these words. For now, just imagine the possibilities... and remember, we'll know everything we want to know in just 3 days

I seem to find these a little more believable. I would be happy if they had two levels of difficulty but I'm not so sure about the name. It would get too confusing.
And I'm up for having the first "dungeon" an ice level.

Triple Post? But it looks like ZeldaInformer has "Confirmed" these rumors. To me, this is not enough to say it is confirmed so I will still call them rumors.
The day the rumors were posted here, we received an email from a @yahoo.de account listing the rumors and providing a link to a german gaming forum (Thread here). Writing back to that email, we received no answer. Instead, we turned to the guy who posted them on the forum. After registering though we were disappointed to see that a user requires 15 posts to send a private message... Trying to reply to the thread was equally hopeless as the account needs to be verified by an administrator. Twelve hours later, the verification showed up.
The thread unfortunately moved on already (Germans apparently don't care too much about rumors) so we didn't actually hope for too much. This morning however, the guy who posted the rumors wrote a random reply to that same thread, just seconds before we checked the thread. Using this momentarily attention, we popped the question and lo and behold, he answered... with a different forum post. Apparently the rumors originated at yet another german Zelda fansite. After finding the thread there, we were relieved when the forum didn't shout at us when we tried to write a PM. An hour later, we got the confirmation. At the request of the original poster, we will disclose as little info as possible.
The information came from a translator / german language instructor working in Kyoto who was hired at the E3 to prepare Aonuma for his speech. It is not entirely accurate that the info is from the first page of the speech. The original poster is an acquaintance of this person. The information was passed on to him via IM.
In order to protect the identity of both individuals, we are unable to disclose anything else at this point in time.
LAST DISCLAIMER: Due to the nature of the post, many people have, and will still be skeptic, which is normal. I however, as the guy who did all the poking around and all the talking, am going to personally shove a Wii Remote up my nose while humming the Pink Panther theme if this ends up not being true in its entirety. You'll have plenty of time to fill up my inbox with hateful things after that.

Wow, interesting. But they say the rumors are confirmed? Hmm...I don't believe it until after the E3.
And for the first dungeon, nice to see a little change.

If nobody has said it yet...
I could have sworn I saw something that said October 2010...

Alright, I'm going to take a guess and say the art style is a mix of TP and the WW cel shading. Also less than 12 hours away and I'm really excited. All I need to do now is sleep.
The real name for this game is The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. I can't wait!! It looks so cool.

We will get a better trailer later today, but this was awesome. The presentation on stage was bad but the game still looks great.

Holy crap! I've never been a huge fan of TLoZ, but that looks amazing! o_o

Trailer shown after the demo. Can't wait!
Wow, great trailer, it seems to have a bit of cel-shaded graphics from Wind Waker. Awesome.
Wow, a mix of Wind Waker, Majora's Mask, Twilight and Ocarina, I can't wait for all these games.
Wow,wow, and wow... This game looks amazing. I love how the graphics are mixed, the gameplay looks like it is going to include new mechanics, and I also like the new look of Link. I can't wait till the game comes out!
From the Developers Roundtable that is currently going on :
6:45: How many people remember the scene where Link dives off the cliff in the trailer? That's a very important point for the storyline. This time around, Link is born and raised in a land called Sky Loft, a land floating above the clouds. It may sound unique for someone to live on a floating land, but Link finds it ordinary. A land beneath the clouds is discovered, it's ruled by evil forces, but Link is forced to go there. Link has to travel between the two lands in this adventure. The Skyward Sword is his driving force behind his traveling between lands. That mysterious figure in last year's art is the Skyward Sword. People suspected this to be the Master Sword…but spoiler alert, the Skyward Sword becomes the Master Sword. (laughs).

Looks like we got a story. I'm guessing Ganon is not the main villian if this is before the master sword was made.

Here is a video that shows gameplay played by Miamoto.

Looks like you have to cut some enemies in certain directions.
This game looks so epic... I love the cell shading and the new gameplay. It kills me every time when I see a video about The Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword...

That guy is horrible. He should've used some enthusiasm when he was fighting.Vipsoccermaster said:

So the main world Link lives in is Skyloft... This game takes place a long time before Ocarina of Time. That huge tree reminds me of the Great Deku Tree, the main first area of the overworld is infested with Deku Babas, and as you know items will use motion control.
