The Legend of Zelda (ゼルダの伝説): Skyward Sword - GDC 2011 Trailer

This is the GDC 2011 trailer, revealed in the Iwata Keynote speech, for the next installment of the Legend of Zelda series (one of my personal three best series of all time)! This game looks awesome, and I beieve it has a great chance of being the best Zelda of all-time. Notice a few details: this trailer is the concrete proof that it will be the first Zelda game featuring an orchestral soundtrack (just listen to this epic music!!!); as a Zelda theorist, I must say that one of the things that intrigue me the most is the drastic difference in architecture of temples from previous games and the new character in the near-end of the trailer (I suspect it to be a villain, but I´m sure it´ll be a key character in the game´s plot.... and no, it isn´t Vaati. I bet all of my status as an extreme expert on the Zelda series that he is the spirit of the Gilded Sword, or he is at least related to the sword from Majora´s Mask, I mean, the same way the Skyward Sword´s design is similiar to the Master Sword, the new character´s design is reminds me of the Gilded Sword design. Just compare the particles he leaves behind after he vanishes with that sword, and you´ll see the diamond-shaped figures present in both images); take a look at the top of the D-pad when Link is fighting the enormous enemy with the wooden shield and you´ll see that an instrument very similiar to the lyre played by Sheik in Ocarina of Time, and the Oracle of Seasons/Ages (the return of the musical instrument gameplay!!!); the character redesigns fit the Motionplus gameplay, which will be extremely useful when solving puzzles; it looks like we get to see a bit of Gerudo Desert near the half of the trailer; Link has a different sword; observe the Skyward Sword icon on the D-pad (similiar to Midna´s function in Twilight Princess); the way the deity vanishes in the end of the trailer is similiar to the way the Twilight monsters do; and the bar below the heart containers with the Hylian Shield symbol beside it (is it some kind of "Shield Bar"???).
Well, enjoy this awesome trailer!!! I can´t wait for this game to come out near August!!! ^^

@007s00s Oh, I know what it is! It´s the Zelda Lullaby Easter Egg!! XD I saw it a week ago, and I couldn´t stop amazing myself at the genius of Nintendo (Koji Kondo specifically, in this case)! I will put a note here to tell everyone about this! Thanks for the tip, my friend.
