Wow... Wow.. Nah, I think like the core thing of Mario Maker they can show off will essentially just resemble Mario. Like it is hard to show off something that is best experienced for yourself :)

Personally, my money's on A, because I feel like Nintendo would've done more to set this guy apart from Link if he wasn't.

What about c) Link is the protagonist but the person in the trailer wasn't him?

I just… really doubt they would make Link not be the protagonist. It would be a first for the series aside from that one obscure Sataview game (and the CD-I games, which don't count). I just don't see it happening.

There's also the very real possibility that Aonuma is just screwing with everyone.

I didn't say it wouldn't be worth spending money on. I said it wouldn't be worth spending THAT kind of money on. UGC games survive and thrive on new content, which may or may not actually end up being good.

While I still think theory A is more likely, you do raise an interesting point. I could kind of see the guy in the trailer being a supporting character, but that also got me thinking: Perhaps there will be parallel plots? One concerning this character and the other concerning Link? Not sure how confident I am in that theory, but, ya never know.

Edit: Nope, it was Link the entire time. -_-
I need a shot again, that sweet adrenaline.

i mean I don't really know what you were expecting

why would they suddenly change the character of one of their most (inexplicably) popular and most unoriginal franchises?
it was fairly obvious that he was making a joke, and again fairly obvious that it was link, and again again fairly obvious that if they were going to change the character, it'd be a big thing ya kno?

I'm hoping the non-liner will finally put an end to the OOT rehashes, personally. I haven't really fallen in love with a Zelda game since Majora's Mask. (Twilight Princess was good, but not outstanding, Skyward Sword was downright mediocre, and I havn't played too much Wind Waker).

I just hope they approach it differently than they did in A Link Between Worlds. The openness in that game didnt bother me really, but renting the items again every time I died got very annoying very quickly.

I didn't watch Microsoft since I have better things to do after they sucked three years in a row. Was it good?

Surprisingly, it wasn't bad. They talked about games at least.
I've been around since 2008. And I'm old. Yay. Pretty sure I notched a fair amount of LOTD/XPs but somehow always like my underrated levels more. Go figure. My best design days are behind me, but I'll try to not be too shabby.

I'm going to be judged so hard for getting an Xbox One just for Halo.
