March 15^th, 2006 (4:03pm) - Just before Jim Merrick left Nintendo of Europe, a magazine ran a story saying that if The Legend of Zelda: the Twilight Princess was played on the Nintendo Revolution, the new controller could be used to enhance the gameplay. While no specific details were announced, Nintendo promptly dismissed this notion.

However, recent rumblings have started to call out in favor of this feature’s existence, and the latest have come from none other than Zelda creator Shigeru Miyamoto himself.

In an interview, Miyamoto was asked how the project was progressing, and he had the following to say.

"I would say that we are progressing well with completing it. And one of the most important features is that, because Revolution can run GameCube software, when you play Twilight Princess on Revolution you can take advantage of the Revolution."

It’s unknown if the controller will add functionality or not, but this does confirm some kind of added Revolution functionality. Here’s hoping for an official announcement soon, though it’s likely one will not come until E3 in May.
