"We do not comment on rumor and speculation," one staffer told us, wishing to remain anonymous, preparing for their lucrative PR career. Others are still trying to figure out next steps. Another anonymous staffer said, "We're still working until we can't."

Sources tell Twinstiq that the staff is aware of the closure, but corporate hasn't officially told them, so they are unable to acknowledge anything out of concern that it will cause immediate shutdown. We've reached out for more information. We will update, as we always have, when we know more.

Further research revealed on Nolan North's IMDB page lists him as the voice of Link in an unannounced game. When confronted with these details, a DeNA spokesperson stated that it was indeed true, and a digital novel with high production values was currently under development.

Nolan North commented "Gamers have been waiting since the introduction of disc-based games to hear Link's voice, and I hope I can do the character justice. I have been watching as many Captain N episodes as possible for inspiration. 'Well excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse me, princess!' How does that sound?"

We expect to hear more very soon, perhaps in tonight's Nintendo Direct!
