If you didn’t get the chance to visit E3 , here’s a little clip for you by Paul Gale showing the awesome Zelda Twilight Princess Booth. It’s really fantastic, I wish I could go there too…
Here’s a little article taken from IGN.com - “Nintendo didn’t pass up the opportunity to create a massive booth decked out with playable game kiosks, video screens and more at the Electronics Entertainment Expo 2005, which took place almost two weeks ago in Los Angeles. But the company’s perpetually crowded display, admittedly giant and flashy, was nothing compared to a closed-off area near the back reserved exclusively to showcase its forthcoming adventure The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. The Zelda portion of the publisher’s booth eclipsed all of our expectations, as could easily be evidenced by the constant hour-long wait to see what was very likely the coolest presentation of the show. Once attendees gained access to the draped-off Zelda area, a new world opened up. It was kind of like stepping into a created version of Hyrule complete with playable Zelda kiosks. The Zelda booth was separated into a few key areas, including an initial room with an innovative projection system that enabled visitors to walk across a virtual, interactive bridge displayed on the ground. The bridge collapsed when people walked over it. Meanwhile, fish swimming in the water below would disperse with ever footstep, while the water itself would splash. In the next room, a window showcased various sequences from the game, all of them spooky. A life-sized Stalfos Knight sat locked inside a cell. When people approached, the Knight crashed into the bars and tried to swipe at them. In the final room, more kiosks displayed new areas from the demo and an animatronic wolf howled and scared passersby. See the entire amazing display in this Insider-only video tour.” - more on IGN.com

Hey everyone, I hope that you enjoyed the Zelda booth video I put up online. I have other videos from the show as well if you are interested. If any of you ever have any questions regarding anything E3 related, Zelda related, or anything to do with videogames in general, feel free to ask away. Come on over to 1up.com, head to the message boards, and click on EGM Gaming Discussion. Here’s where I’m more than happy to help out game fans out there with any personal questions. I always appreciated it when some “big shot” took the time to speak with me, but I didn’t always have someone there to ask. Well, I want to be there for you. I’m not saying that I’m a big shot or anything, but I am involved in this industry, and if there’s a way I can enlighten you, my mission will be accomplished. I also have a club page at http://PaulGale-Club.1up.com. You can look at my E3 pictures and ask me questions here as well. Good gaming everyone!
