There were a couple of mini-nuggets of information to be had for those that scrutinised Nintendo’s yearly financial data that we posted earlier.

Firstly Nintendo announced that the new Zelda wii be available to buy “in the latter half of this calendar year“. So near the holiday season we presume. That is good news as some predicted a 2010 release for the title.

Secondly, hidden away in the report as a brief note to investors, Nintendo say that Zelda: Spirit Tracks has been designed to “appeal to a wider age group of people“. That qutoe sounds interesting and frightening at the same time to us, but best not read too much into it!
