I know the guy who was the original source. Smilie He was at some Nintendo party and while everybody else was drinking beer, they let him play the full version of the game for more than 3 hours. Smilie

By the way, I started doing Zelda podcasts with him and another Zelda fan. So far we have a podcast about Oracle of Ages and a sort-of-review of the new elements of TWWHD. www.youtube.com/zeldapodsmashers

I'll be avoiding ALBW spoilers by the way...
