Status Update: Forum Move Nearly Complete

UPDATE Jan 30: Because of an issue with cross site integration, we were unable to start the final move on-time. We expect to start the final move Jan 31 or Feb 1. Thank you all!

UPDATE Jan 27: We are still working on some aspects of the forum and fixing a few things in the new site design before we move forward. It is anticipated that these changes will be complete, by the latest, Monday, and we can move forward with the rest of the move. Thanks for your patience!

Good news! All the forum content, and all your accounts for that matter, are safe and sound running on the new board software.

We’re still here, Promise

Yes, we’re still here! I want to apologize for our prolonged absence. All the staff have been rather busy with school work, and other such activities.  With that said, we do have some very good, exciting news. After several years of delays, setbacks, and breakdowns I’ve made the executive decision to upgrade Zelda Sages to our new site design / sometime in the next few weeks. Please read the rest of the article to see what exactly this means for you and what kind of content we will be launching with.

Vote for Zelda 3DS

 First, I want to personally apologize for the HUGE absence we’ve had over the last few months.  As old as these two excuses are, they’re still basically what going on: school and work.  I’m working in the US capital (Washington, DC) this summer, so much of my time has been dedicated to that work.  Rest assured, we’re still here!

Now, onto more important matters.  With E3 over  and with, unfortunately, very little news on the next Legend of Zelda installment we’re left wondering a bit.  However, Mr. Miyamoto was kind enough to inform the Nintendo Press crowd that the Zelda Team is considering one of three games.  First, a re-make of A Link to the Past.  Such a title has the potential to play radically differently given the 3D, although Miyamoto has expressed that such a remake would be a top-down Zelda style, so the gameplay may not be as radically different. The second, the much asked for re-make of Majora’s Mask. If you haven’t played Majora’s Mask you’re really doing yourself a disservice. To a lot of folks, myself included, it’s the Zelda game of choice.  Lastly, an entirely new title based off of A Link to the Past. We’re not sure exactly what the game will involve, but it certainly sounds very interesting.

Anyway, IGN just placed up a video asking Zelda fans to vote for which game they’d like.  Before you go all over me about how internet polls mean nothing, it has been confirmed that the Miyamoto et al accounts on IGN are legit.  They do read fan feedback and take IGN in particular rather seriously.  Click the read more link to vote, and best of luck!
