<p>In a shock revelation in the latest Iwata Asks interview, Satoru Takizawa has said that the team behind the 2003 original version of &#8216;The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker&#8217; considered having beams come out of Link&#8217;s eyes.</p>
<p>Speaking in the interview, Satoru Takizawa said:</p>
<p><em>&#8220;Now that the eyes had gotten much larger, we wanted to make their facial expressions richer by increasing the number of patterns for the eyes and mouth. Partway through, we even talked about having beams come out of those eyes! (laughs).&#8221;</em></p>
