'Legend of Zelda' Wii U news: When to expect new word about the game?

"The Legend of Zelda" for Wii U Nintendo

The year 2015 has been marred by disappointment for fans eagerly awaiting the arrival of the "Legend of Zelda" game for the Wii U.  The question now is whether or not things can still change before the end of the year.

Ever since the game was revealed back at E3 in 2014, fans have been chomping at the bit to get their hands on what would likely be the most popular games on the Wii U. Unfortunately, they have had little to go on since.

Heading into this year, there was hope on the side of the fans that there would finally be more concrete details revealed about the "Legend of Zelda" title for the Wii U. Instead, Nintendo's presence at this year's E3 was more notable for what they didn't talk about, which was the game itself.

In all fairness, Nintendo was not completely tight-lipped at the event. Nintendo's Executive President of Sales and Marketing Scott Moffitt did indeed confirm that the company is currently working on the game. He also backed up the initial proclamation that the highly anticipated entry from the franchise will be coming out in 2016, iDigital Times reported.

With no word coming from Nintendo then, fans expected to hear about the game at this year's PAX Prime event; but they were sadly mistaken as the game was noticeably absent from the proceedings, according to Design and Trend.

At this point, it's fair to ask when Nintendo plans to reveal more about their much talked about title.

It's a fair bet that fans will most likely expect Nintendo to talk about the game again at the next major event on the calendar, although there are no guarantees at this point unless something develops rapidly.

Even without any new word about "Legend of Zelda" for the Wii U, what's clear is that fans still have love for the franchise, with "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time" and "The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past" still among the most popular titles in Nintendo's eShop, according to The News Hub.

Hopefully, the fans still showing enthusiasm for the franchise can encourage Nintendo to at least say something new officially about their much talked about yet mostly anonymous game.
