I like how the gameplay isn't simply "Zelda doing Link things." Instead, it revolves around strategy and resources. It's a good fit for the bearer of the Triforce of Wisdom, and it gives her quest a unique identity that sets it apart from Link's adventures. Obviously, we'll have to get our hands on it to see how well it works. This was a tiny teaser, so we don't have the full picture yet. I'm definitely excited to try it out and see how it affects things like boss battles, level design, progression, etc.

there is already an N64 OoT/MM romhack with that title, it is well known enough that Nintendo probably knows of it and they probably try to avoid using the same titles as romhacks (they wouldn't want search results to bring up romhacks instead of their official game). "the missing link" is also just too common of a phrase in general, it would bring up all types of different things in search results.

[@RegalPixelKing]

@@elio7610 I'd be kind of shocked if Nintendo knew about that, if any romhack. Assuming they did they would know that it would be practically impossible to confuse a romhack with an official product. As common phrases "A Link to the Past" is just common a phrase as "The Missing Link." Ubisoft has a franchise simply called Division, common words or phrases have never been known to hurt the reach of products in general.

[@jamesmccloud1002]

So in Japanese this is apparently called ゼルダの伝説 知恵のかりもの, "The Legend of Zelda, かりもの of Wisdom". かりもの (karimono) does not appear to mean "echo", but rather "borrowed thing". Usually it's written 借り物, but they're opting for the kana, making me suspect that wordplay is afoot. Indeed, in the Japanese version of the video, "learned to create an imitation of [the table], called an echo" becomes "お借りできました”, roughly "was able to borrow it". The written text "you learned the table echo" becomes "テーブル　を覚えた", which translates as "you remembered the table". I think this is interesting because: - The weird joke at the end, "I'd like to return the moment I'd stolen away", in Japanese is said roughly as "I'd like to return the moment I borrowed", which makes much more sense with the Japanese title. - This is an interesting departure from Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, which did not have Japanese titles (they are transliterated into katakana from English). I wager there's additional Japanese cultural context behind the naming and this concept.
