Zelda Informer has posted some new Zelda Wii information supposedly from the Japanese message board 2ch. Keep in mind the information below is in no way confirmed to be legit.

* Link will be replacing the bow and arrow with a crossbow.
* Game is all but finished. Putting on final touches.
* There will be a playable demo at E3.
* Time travel does occur and it happens through the use of a new blade. (not the master sword)
* Link’s hometown is much bigger than in previous titles.
* There will be several “Majora’s Mask” esque sidequests.
* Character interaction will be more involving than in any previous title.
* The dungeon field dungeon method is changed, and one of the changes confirms a straight dungeon to dungeon portion of the game.
* The current name of the girl in the picture is Adelle.
* Combat is extremely fluent and innovative. No previous Wii title can give you a good example of it’s unique style.
* The game relies heavily on sword combat versus other items.
* There will be less items, but they will be used more frequently.
* There will be another main weapon added for an alternative combat style.
* The game will feature significant portions of flight.

A lot of this information sounds agreeable, as past interviews with Eiji Anouma and Shigeru Miyamoto hinted towards additions like flight, unique combat, and changing up the formula; and if you ask me it all sounds pretty damn good. That said, it could just as easily be written by an excited fan. We’ll find out at E3 on June 15th.
