Ah yes, the first glimpse we saw of a Gamecube Zelda in the realistic style of Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask. Nothing peaked the anticipation of fans like a fully-rendered face-off between Link and Ganondorf. If only they knew what was to come…
Link’s original Gamecube design, which later appeared in Super Smash Brothers Melee and Soul Caliber II.
Ganondorf’s design, like Link’s, later appeared in Super Smash Brothers Melee.
Ganondorf’s got the emo nails going on.
Adult Link wields the Hero’s Shield from Majora’s Mask, possibly indicating that the game was originally meant to take place after Link had grown up again following MM. Curious murals adorn the walls.
The Hylian of OoT and MM (as opposed to the newer TWW and TP alphabets) adorns the walls, correctly oriented on the right side (though seemingly nonsensical) and mirrored on the left.
It’s a pity Twilight Princess’ Hyrule Castle didn’t look more like this.
Strange that Link appears to have black eyes in this. Makes him look more cartoony.
