Different View for Zelda DS - DS

EGM interviewed Zelda head honcho Eiji Aonuma in a recent issue of the magazine. Aonuma stated taht the upcoming, and untitled game for the DS will be a brand new episode, and not another Four Swords installment.

Interestingly, he confirmed that the game will feature a brand new system of control (obvious, considering all the options with the DS), letting gamers live the adventure "from a different angle of sight". Players will use the touch screen to handle the various objects Link uses, allowing for greater immersion in the world.

Aonuma said: "What I can tell you is that it's going to use the touch screen for a very unique control system that people have never experienced in a Zelda game before. I think one of the important elements of the Zelda series has always been that you feel like you're in the world doing the things that Link is doing and touching the things that Link is touching. This time you'll be able to use the touch screen and actually touch those items and objects yourself."

It's almost as if he was saying it would be in first person! Unfortunately, we'll have to wait for more news, as that was all he revealed.
