NINTENDO are reportedly planning a huge announcement attached to a Legend of Zelda project on Wii U.
New video footage has surfaced online, apparently attached to an idea involving the history of Link and the Zelda series.
It's claimed that the new clip will be shown at a major event and will focus on the relationship of parents and their children's interaction with the iconic character.
It is currently not known what project this footage is tied to, only that it includes references to it appearing on the Wii U.
A new Legend of Zelda title is set to be released in 2016 on the Nintendo console.
The footage reportedly includes clips from earlier Zelda titles and also features the Legend of Zelda logo, while a timestamp appears to confirm that 40 seconds of footage is missing from the start.
Gamer Professionals, who claim to have seen the video, say they believe it to be legitimate and have speculated could be attached to a new anthology title to celebrate the series’ 30th anniversary.
An important tagline from the video includes: "A New Generation Begins," although it is currently not known what this could be in reference to.
It follows Nintendo President, Tatsumi Kimishima, to shareholders and investors that covers both amiibo and the company's ambition to expand the reach of their famous characters and IPs to a wider audience.
"We launched a new product called amiibo - Nintendo characters that come in figure or card form that work with our video games.
"They have been well received by many of our consumers. Furthermore, our endeavors will not be limited to video games.
"We are planning to offer new attractions at theme parks by using Nintendo characters. We will also strive to further increase opportunities for consumers to come in contact with Nintendo characters in their daily lives, such as through visual?content and merchandising.
"Thus, we are now expanding how we leverage Nintendo IP in various ways beyond our traditional use of them predominantly within the dedicated video game platform business."
