New Zelda game will "improve upon" Twilight Princess, says Aonuma

Eiji Aonuma has told IGN that while Twilight Princess didn't live up to the public's expectations and its potential, the next iteration of the series on Wii will, thanks to what the team learned through creating the game.

"With Twilight, we challenged ourselves to create the most vast and realistic world the series had ever seen," said Aonum, "but we don't feel we were able to fully complete this objective. With that as a starting point for our improvements to the series in the future, we are of course working on a new game for Wii.

"For any game to be remembered for a long time, just like Ocarina of Time was, the game must give the strong impression that it has set a new starting point for future sequels to build upon. We are working to further improve upon the experiences found in Twilight Princess so that our future games can realize these innovations."

We're keeping our fingers crossed.
