Well, the Dark World was also a mirror of Hyrule, and Hilda says Lorule used to look like Hyrule. Maybe similarities are just coincidental. It's not that much of a stretch.
I'm calling shenanigans on a more developmentally related side--I'm already pretty down on the reuse of Hyrule's LttP design, but to see them reuse the Dark World (for the most part) and say "It's actually a new world!" would get a hefty eyebrow raise.

Ok that looks seriously imperssive. Last mario 3d world trailer was superb, then dk trailer was quite good and now this trailer... I just wanted to say that the last trailers they sent out have made a more than usual positive note.

This game is now a day one

Standard sword at the beginning confirmed.

Three pendants from ALTTP are back. I guess that's why you'll have to go back into the three original Hyrule dungeons.

Get the master sword, destroy the barrier in Hyrule castle and then gain the world-travel mechanic.

Link dreaming about Ganon? Dream because he is holding his no-name sword.
 
It's games like this that make you wish Nintendo just did it in the same style as A Link to the Past. Then it would look terrific and age gracefully.

Totally agreed. I think the biggest hangup with this style being used is the fact that it's being rendered at 400x240 without any anti-aliasing, and it just makes it look awful.

That said, if they were to do an "HD Remake" sometime in the future by just upscaling it and smoothing out those jaggles, it'd look probably pretty fantastic.

Graphics aside, I love the style and I can't wait to play it.

The villain is female, why are you calling her dude?

Also, is there any new info from the Aonuma presentation? links? transcripts?

Artstyle/graphic/character model doesn't bother me. I can't wait to play this 60fps silky smoothness so hyped akl;dsjfha;lsdkghjas;dlkfghja;slgasdfg

If it was done in the style of Four Swords Adventures, with sprites and that but 3d effects on top, that would have looked really nice.

Looks great. I'm loving everything about this. Still can't believe this and 3D world and coming out on the same day.

Highly doubtful. Look at the face (shape). Doesn't look female at all.

It looks very gerudo like.

The laugh sounded feminine, and not in the flamboyant way of Girahim, and there's the clothes, the hair...

I'm not sure I like Zelda getting these new bend-gender enemies though :/

shhh Graham I'm still compiling this Radiant map
Pretty good trailer. Hoping this is a classic, it'll be the first Zelda I've day one'd in over a decade.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Lorule? That's a criminally bad name.
