Zelda A Link Between Worlds: New informations about the game

Director of product marketing Bill Trinen recently sat down with online gaming publication IGN to discuss The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds on the Nintendo 3DS. You can watch the Bill Trinen interview with direct feed video, right here. Here’s some of the main points that Trinen puts across in the interview.

• The overworld is not identical to A Link To The Past’s.
• Bill acknowledges that hieroglyphic Link looks like the Link from the Wind Waker Opening.
• Runs at a ”buttery smooth” 60 FPS.
• Link can merge into pretty much any wall.
• The dungeon we keep seeing is a new version of the Tower of Hera from A Link To The Past.
• The gage on the left side gets rid of the need to restock items like arrows.
• The wall Link ability runs on that gage and will pop you out of the wall when it runs out.

Club Nintendo hacked

Hackers have managed to break into the Club Nintendo website more than 23,000 times in the past month, Nintendo has confirmed.

Nintendo's Kyoto-based HQ just announced that Club Nintendo, its member rewards site, has been hacked. This was discovered when a large number of access errors began appearing on July 2. That's when Nintendo began investigating the issue.

According to Nintendo's investigation, there were 23,000 unauthorized log-ins (with 15 million attempts) between June 9 and July 4 on Japan's Club Nintendo site. This does not seem to apply to Club Nintendo sites in other countries.

In Japan, it's possible that Club Nintendo members' full names, home addresses, phone numbers, and mail addresses were compromised.

Credit cards, however, are not used with Club Nintendo, so thankfully, that's not an issue.

Currently, Nintendo is strengthening its security. Old passwords are currently invalid, and Nintendo is asking Club Nintendo members to change their passwords via email.

What about their names, phone numbers, and addresses?
