They originally said the day before Halloween, but a new post now gives a release date of the 27th. I'm updating the post, but unfortunately can't update the thread title. Maybe a mod will see this and take care of it. On their Facebook: "Our next game will back to the gameboy style and salute to the 30th anniversary of first zelda game. We are working on prototyping and color testing. Grey, brown or green?" "Robo Tyrant's beam cannon! One of the enemies in hero's new journey." "What's your favorite UI? A or B?"
