Nintendo's action-adventure for Wii U and upcoming Nintendo Switch console is due sometime next year. Just recently it is eligible to pre-order Breath of the Wild on Wii U. Check out the official gameplay as well as the console that was debuted on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

Not only do we get to see how the system works, but we see a glimpse of how the game looks. It contains similar qualities to that of Skyward Sword for Wii U. Here is the official trailer that shares it's resemblance.

From the trailer we can presume that there will be a connection to many of the other previous games. For instance, Ocarina of Time, The Wind Waker, Skyward Sword, and maybe even Twilight Princess and Majora's Mask. The developers are still able to keep the nostalgic puzzles and certain items that remind you that it's still a Zelda game.

So when does this latest Zelda game take place in the timeline of all the other previous games? Well, with everything we've seen from many of the trailers (Check Nintendo.com for further trailer reveals) it seems to be that it takes place either before or after the time of Wind Waker.

Notice the appearance of the Korok, not only were they small tree folk living in the Deku Tree but believed to have been evolved from the Kokiri which was the race Link grew up in during the Ocarina of Time. They even contributed the amiibo of wolf Link from Twilight Princess that you can play in the game. All of these additional characters make it difficult to interpret what storyline they plan to follow and incorporate.

But what if Breath of the Wild is actually before the events of Skyward Sword? Maybe the game revolves around the time before the battle between Hylia and Demise, and the evolution of the Skyloft people. It may just be the beginning of everything.

Although we see a major break through in CGI and character progression, not much was touched upon for it's release date when the Nintendo Switch was fully unveiled last month. The hype is gradually increasing as well as our worry for an actual release date because the game has been put off for so long that it is difficult to be sure Nintendo will follow through.

"It's a huge step up from what the creators used to do by turning it into the open world route. Unlike other open world games like No Man's Sky, you won't be left with the sense of emptiness. It's Zelda after all," said Sophia Contreras. "I think it'll be enjoyable."

Much of the game, it's due date, and the story behind it is pretty much left ambiguous to many Nintendo fans. But this is part of the process with every new game. Patience is a virtue.

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.
