Zelda movie rumour rubbished

By Ellie Gibson Published 24 November, 2005

Reggie said nothing of the sort.

Following the emergence of rumours that a Legend of Zelda movie adaptation is in the works, Nintendo has informed Eurogamer that said rumours are in fact utter lies.

According to good old Mr Internet Reports, Mexico's official Nintendo magazine quoted marketing bigwig Reggie Fils-Aime as confirming that a Zelda film was definitely coming.

But a Nintendo spokesperson told us: "The quote is not true as Reggie never spoke to them about a Zelda movie. The magazine has posted a correction."

So there you have it - but don't worry, there are still big screen adaptations of Metroid, Castlevania, Silent Hill, Dungeon Siege, BloodRayne and Pong to look forward to. All right maybe not the last one.
