Description: Eiji Aonuma's work on The Legend of Zelda series dates as far back as The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess has been the team's most ambitious game to date and for the first time since its release, Aonuma reflects on its evolution and how it prepared him to take on the challenge of his current mission: Phantom Hourglass.

Aonuma explains the development team's formidable task of progressing the epic franchise across multiple generations of Nintendo systems. This is a rare opportunity to learn behind-the-scenes development challenges and triumphs from Link's latest installments.
