Nintendo of America recently released a full software schedule for 2015, much to the delight of Wii U fans, particularly those who love The Legend of Zelda series.

Forbes ran a story about it, saying that the company listed a detailed plan for Wii software lineup for this year until 2015, highlighting several high-profile exclusives for the platform that will be released in 2015. One of them is a new version of Zelda.

Nintendo director Eiji Aonuma recently made a statement about The Legend of Zelda series. He discussed the Hyrule Warriors and how it influenced the development of Zelda Wii U.

According to an article from Nintendo Enthusiasts, Aonuma made it a point to make exceptional cut-scenes in the game.

"Looking at the comments on Miiverse regarding Hyrule Warriors, it's been great to see a lot of positive feedback. But one of the things that leaves me with rather complicated feelings is that people are saying, "Oh wow, I really love the cutscenes in this game! This is better than the stuff Nintendo does!" Of course, that leaves me a little conflicted, and gives me a mission now to make sure that the new Zelda game that I'm working on can hold its own in that aspect against Hyrule Warriors!" the director said.

Meanwhile, the second part of the Zelda sale that kicked off last Thursday by offering discounted rates to make the upcoming release of Hyrule Warriors.
