Shigsy has claimed the long awaited Zelda title will be nothing short of "perfect", as he reveals the real reason for the title's delay.

Originally slated for a release in the November of last year, there was a collective groan from the Nintendo fan community when the title's release date slipped to a vague point after the 2005-2006 financial year (now all but confirmed as late Autumn, around the time of the Revolution's launch).

Many suspected the delay was to add the long-speculated Revolution controls (Nintendo's worst kept secret) into the game. But the now-knighted legendary game designer and all round Nintendo deity Shigeru Miyamoto has said otherwise, suggesting the extra development time was just to make the perfect Zelda.

Speaking to the Official Nintendo Magazine, he said the game was "a project with a huge volume of people and complex game development procedures. As soon as we decided to postpone the game from last year to this year and make the perfect Zelda, all the team were delighted to have the time to work on many ideas."

Damn all this teasing about the game... E3 can't come soon enough!
