We’ve seen Princess Zelda as a damsel in distress, pirate, and a suit of armor. Zelda is, of course, in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword and this time she will share romantic moments with Link. Nintendo of America actually titled that video "romance trailer" when they sent it to the press. Sparks flew in the E3 demo too. During the Birdrider’s Ceremony, Zelda jumps off a ledge and lands on a giant bird and rides it with Link after he claims a trophy.

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword comes out on November 20 in North America.
