Link to the Past sequel coming to 3DS

I do notice the irony of using this Link picture)

Nintendo is prepping a new Link to the Past game for the 3DS, a direct sequel to the 1991 SNES classic, and it's set for release later this year.
Told using the same top-down view and with an art-style that closely mimics the original, Link to the Past 2 takes place in the same Hyrule of the SNES game, but features all-new dungeons and mechanics that make the most of the 3DS's unique display.
Most intriguingly, there's the ability to turn Link into a drawing, enabling him to navigate across walls and zooming the camera down into the game world.

There's not an exact release date just yet - that will likely come at this June's E3 - but it's aiming for this year. We'll hopefully bring you more on it over the next couple of days.

Nice to see a new game rather than another port

My timing of playin' through Zelda games couldn't be more perfect.

Interestin' that the game'l not only be a direct sequel, but retain the old style of 2D top-down gameplay. Wonder how that'l be received by non-retro gamers.
